What are the TOP 5 Watches you want to see repped
tyrantblade replied to a topic in General Discussion
There are only 3 id like to see repped, all breitlings 1. Avenger II Seawolf 2. Avenger II 3. Super Avenger II unfortunately, it seems when it comes to Breitling, all the rep factories want to do is make new batches of what they have already done, but mostly they stick to their making a new version of a watch theyve already done because the masses are such suckers they would buy version 20 hoping it would be perfect when versions 1-19 all had something wrong and they already have version 19 -
Any of the repped Seawolfs don't appeal to me, and any of the gen Avenger IIs (GMT, Seawolf, Chrono, or Super Avenger) are right around $3000, which seems like an impossibility given whatever money i save eventually get used on bills
-
There is only one rep that is an attempt at the updated breitlings out there, but its so bad i would probably need to spend as much as the gen costs, if i could find a reputable place to get parts from Which i don't think there is for the updated models So its not really an option
-
as much as I try to Save i can never seem to get very far, its like after a good 3 months i have $1000, then im asked to shell it out to pay bills and in 3 weeks im back to 0 (but i could be living somewhere where i would never be able to save that $1000, so it could be worse) And i have never had many reps, in fact right now i only have 1, and its not like an expensive franken either, so its gonna suffice as my only watch for a while Around the corner im getting taxes back, but have to figure out finances first so i may not be able to save any of it Sucks to sometimes work 70 hours a week (its happened before, but lately 56 hours is the extreme or i get no overtime) and still end up broke
-
I guess to be truthful i don't know what im gonna do, except wait until the factories rep what is my grail or until i have the money to buy the gen Every rep forum i get too involved with seems to want me gone and eventually ban me, compared to that i may as well be a ghost in the background
-
Apparently they thought i should be banned just for saying my favorite B name watch brand one too many times I eonder what my gulag page says if they even made one Its nice to be offered an opportunity to stay, but ill have to decline It just wouldn't be the same as geek and bz used to be Not to mention the only watch i want, gen or rep, is the one i get punished for mentioning (even a different model or the brand)
-
Okay, so one and only update, and im sure this is gonna be hilarious to you all The mods on .bz have taken my account for a joy ride I really do plan on not being on any of the rep forums I just felt like explaining that the person posting on .bz is not me
-
I am done with all rep forums Reply if you want, but i will not be logging in to see it This decision has came after being banned on repgeek when a thread of mine got threadcrapped and after someone on .bz decided to make it so if i log in to .bz i get redirected to the official breitling website, specifically to a page about a watch i want do badly, but life never allows me to save much I guess its some sort of excessively mean final screw you Well, you guys win Tyrantblade/Fluffy out

whats the verdict on which is the better "D Blue" DSSD
tyrantblade replied to tyrantblade's topic in The Rolex Area
it seemed like a toos up before (both seemed to have different pluses or minuses, basically BP had what appeared to be closer to gen colors and NOOB better everything else), but these two listings have me confused as to me both look the exact same, even after more than an hour of looking over both of them -
noob or BP, im looking at 2 on Toros website, one claims to be noob and $20 cheaper with the same movement as the BP, but honestly ive been scrutinizing over details on both and im pretty convinced they may be the same, so is there any difference between the following 2, and if so which is better? "noob" will be first and "BP" second http://www.torobravo2015.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=39_134&product_id=1371 http://www.torobravo2015.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=39_134&product_id=1168

anybody know if UN MMD reps are still available?
tyrantblade replied to tyrantblade's topic in General Discussion
Yeah, but im pretty sure almost everyone knows of toros sale on the blue and black surf and chronographs -
anybody know if UN MMD reps are still available?
tyrantblade replied to tyrantblade's topic in General Discussion
yeah but im not looking for a blue/black surf -
ive tried just a few TD's on the other RWG and one replied "out of stock", the other said they would check http://www.tswatchltd.com/11657-xfun3490-ulysse-nardin-maxi-marine-diver-black-dial-ss-ss-asia-23j-automatic.html is the one i want, but im not going to place an order to later find out its not being produced or out of stock.
-
the stick markers have nothing to do with GMT, so the only significantly wrong thing is it should look more plain (by which i mean no red/yellow highlights), if that was the only issue it should still be a must have until such a time that a super-rep Seawolf 2 comes out
-
just a heads up, its now for sale on the other RWG if somebody doesnt mind the need of repairs or could fix it themselves.
-
i would have no clue where to go though, or how to approach places, or anything. . last time i tried finding a local place, all i came up with were places that could only replace a battery, and places that wanted to charge me more than my rep cost to fix it (i had a UPO that costs me around 250 at the time, the place wanted over 350 to fix it)
-
I can't exactly be mad at his unwillingness to work with me, but you don't know the half of it, only reason I seem to be in a hurry is because I would like my sosf fixed and back to me hopefully before next year.
-
the only one on RG that specifies being US based is 10:10, which will not work with me. anybody have any experience with any other US based ones?, anybody that does have some extra huge workload?
-
Are there any still trusted modders/repairers on any of the forums, besides 10:10 (or w/e they call themselves now), they don't want to deal with me, and I've got an Asian ETA, sosf, v2 h factory thats in a state of disrepair, and it needs some parts (mostly jewels, maybe a screw or two), any suggestions? Else I would end up selling it m2m on the other RWG.
-
MD2020 Who is dealing with him, I'm worried now!
tyrantblade replied to sgtguk's topic in General Discussion
so whats the latest update? everything going fine? eventually i was going to send my H Fac v2 SOSF out to him, but obviously that could change if anything foul is afoot. -
H Fac needs to get a start on this, really stunning and i cant keep myself from continuing to come here and torture myself with the pics.
-
The biggest thing I care about is how the dial of this generation seawolf seems more alive, dial of last generation seemed flat, was the only reason I didn't get one, if this generation gets repped, I'm in for the dial details alone, I'm indifferent on all other changes.
-
im very happy with my H Factory SOSF, if they made the seawolf 2 series, i would have to buy at least one.
-
i know that, im just saying why not "kill two birds with one stone" so to speak (getting a new bezel on it, and a better pearl)?, also i heard you could spray it with a Matte paint, i believe its Kryon or something to that effect, i havent done it, but people have used a Matte orange spray paint on the orange bezel CrPO. and LM so far for Omega is just a limited edition PO, and i guess in the gen the blue Titanium PO is LM too, or at least LM like.
-
Noob factory Ceramic PO and LM LE. (LM due for Release.)
tyrantblade replied to cougar1's topic in The Omega Area
i dont think titanium PO would hurt LMPO sales, 2 completely different watches, the titanium is only available in blue, is light, is a regular production watch AFAIK, and i think comes in 42mm and 45.5, LMPO is shiny black, SS, and a limited edition (they made 1948 gens to commemorate the year the first "seamaster" came out), coming only in 42mm.
