  1. Updated collection pic, with the addition of the 2 hexmariners making it 7 in my personal staple
  2. My watches have arrived, very nice watches for their price and well worth the wait
  3. Got 3 of these in different colors coming soon, can't wait to get my own Not my own Photo, but this is one of the 3 I've got coming
  4. Just got this Great White 43mm sized up a couple hours ago and on the wrist OMG this is possibly the nicest feeling watch I've ever had, I could forget it's on my wrist it's so comfortable
  5. 1 San Martin (a bit of a Homage of an expensive Seiko), 2 Zelos, a Christopher Ward Trident GMT, an Invicta (probably not of interest to most of yall) and a Royal Oak Homage
  6. I'm planning on getting these 2, they have a bunch of different variants Some have the textured dial, some will have a meteorite dial, some are Bronze cased, some plain 316L Stainless, I think all the Bezels are ceramic All have an NH35 movement and 200M WR and a 42MM case that is in a pretty modest thickness Its kinda like a Submariner homage, except not really as the indices are different, some Bezel markings are different, and the dials are either textured or are Meteorite (the European source all modern Meteorite dials seem to be made of, start with an M)
  7. Just got the Teal one in and sized, don't know yet which I will like more, bit it's nice to have options
  8. US it wasn't a Replica, it was a Zelos I did get it a few days ago, just thought it was a bit odd taking 5 days just inside of one country moving from one City to another But, after that it took only a couple more days to reach me
  9. Just got this one a couple hours ago, feels amazing, looks Amazing, Lume is very Strong, like some of the best I've ever seen can't wait to see how the Teal looks in the Flesh when it arrives
  10. I haven't bought anything from outside ofbthe country in a while, got a watch coming from Singapore, which went to Japan, and went through 2 areas in Japan in 5 days time Idk if that is usual, but I checked a website that gives shipping estimates and it said it should take about 4 or 5 days, to reach me
  11. Yeah, I had been intrigued since the HH2, but I missed that launch and didn't wanna pay $500-$600+ for the Variation I wanted I would have only bought 1, but when you are working 240 hours in a month, you gotta treat yourself, right?
  12. Still waiting on the 1st one to arrive (it's been shipped), but I already caved in and bought another one So, I'll have both Teal, and Emerald Green
  13. Been intrigued by Zelos for a while and I've always like the look of the HammerHead series, but the model I've wanted was always unavailable without paying quite a bit over the "retail" price I guess that's the downside of Micro Brands that's are super Popular Would have preferred if they did a Cobalt Blue, but since they didn't I sprung for Emerald Green and will see how I like it when it arrives
  14. Finally got the bracelet together so I can wear it, loving how it looks and glad to have picked it up for what I thought was a pretty fair deal
  15. Nah, I have plenty of Spring Bars, I just wish someone made the same kind of Spring Bar kit, but with Watch bracelet pins instead of various sizes But I should be all settled as someone on the Christopher Ward forum helped me out, its just a matter of waiting for the Pin/Collars to make it to me in the mail now
  16. I'm trying to figure out where to get watch pins from Seems I need 17.5mm length 1mm thickness for my 43MM CW Trident GMT
  17. I've never had a watch winder and im just getting back into Watches with a Christopher Ward Trident GMT coming and will in the future get back into Reps What do you guys recommend for a Watch Winder that isn't too costly, but does the job and hopefully lasts a while?
  18. What gets me is the people that not only do nothing (which I would expect) but the people that see someone is having trouble or someone has made a mistake and they have to do their best to kick you while you are down "oh you made X mistake? You were so stupid, you shouldnt have done that" Or alternatively "it's all your fault!!!!!!" And I can only think "yeah I know, I can criticize myself, I dont need you for that" Or people that outright assume things because they think they know what you are up to; so in their mind you are some awful person out to screw over everyone else; get the most $ out of your things and pay the least for everybody elses. Just because some people are like that doesnt mean everybody is and it's good to assume someone is always up to no good
  19. Well you may (or may not) be surprised to hear that I have faced judgement/condemnation from people on other websites/forums just for making mistakes; as if those other people are perfect I have come to the conclusion that I dont need to stick around any of those areas; good riddance.
  20. Incompetent higher ups where I work have caused the need for a 6 week layoff. I've known for a while and had hoped to get some extra money for that time by selling things (not watches BTW as I have no extras, only my Waterproof beater) but eventually you realize when you have tried and it's not gonna happen and have to accept that. I rarely post here just because I dont buy too many watches anymore and havent bought any reps in a long time; but you guys are one of the good ones I feel welcome to come back to without being judged/condemned for having made mistakes
  21. Yeah, this one was a bit thicker than I would have preferred, but its just within a comfortable enough size range for me to go for it, especially with that 500m WR and the HRV for "cool factor"
  22. Just got this 500m Diver Aragon (was previously Android before Smart Watches came along) powered by an NH36A Not for everyone (this one is a 44mm by 17mm thick, but it actually wears not too bad even for being as thick as it is) and not my idea of a "perfect" watch, but it's really solid and I am digging it as a watch to keep for the few occasions that I may get to Swim (like when I go on Vacation to Florida to see my family down there) What would make this more ideal to me would be if the bezel were single color (I'm not a huge fan of Dual Color when it's not Ceramic) and the markers were naturally white instead of a light Green color; along with a Sapphire Crystal But at the end of the day these are minor things considering watches with a nicer movement and Sapphire Crystal tend to cost 3 or 4 times as much for this WR; and it's cool having a HRV on the side of the watch too Definitely wouldn't be the watch I would go for if it costed $400 like the suggested "retail" but under $175 delivered with a solid build, automatic movement, and 500m WR makes it not a bad buy. Also not the easiest to adjust as it has an annoying double sided pin system for the bracelet, so you have to hold one side in place while you unscrew the other side, slide the pin out Repeat on a 2nd pin to take a link off, put a pin back on, and then rescrew on both sides
  23. Because its Rolex, they dont care about anybody but themselves or their bottom line As long as they are making more than enough money to survive they dont have to care
  24. Yeah, I know that now It used to be they weren't so skeptical of whether or not you gave the customer what they paid for; but now as soon as customer says you left out part of the package they take the buyers side
