Lol I wonder if theres a double entendre in your statement

(tsk tsk guys..how could we let this perennial thread slide?!) fighters

Just sharing a pic of the 44mm ROO FC on a SMPLover red saffiano strap. Some will like it, some will hate it. But it breaks up the monotony of black on black on black. Compliments, comments and insults all accepted graciously. Sent from Mars using tapatalk

+1. It is one thing to change one's mind, but to do so without informing the seller is what irks me. Having said that, I have been guilty of "mind-changing" a few times here, both as the buyer and the seller. I am trying to learn to improve my communication and not be a pain to others.

Looks damn good for a "rep" Sent from Mars using tapatalk

You mean clone P.3000 movement right? Looks promising, but right off the bat, the MARINA MILITARE letterings on the dial, are they a little too thick vs gen?

Tony, I think I have to call your bluff. That day you eagerly PMed me asking me about this piece specifically, and told me you were going to purchase 4, two for each wrist. :lol: I asked you "what about the ankles then?" and you told me that you asked Angus about it and he did not have a bracelet long enough to go around them.. Hmmm...

It DOES come with an XS strap brother lol. I'm gonna mod the hands color and the 3 o'clock marker. Sent from Mars using tapatalk

The last I checked, its still available from a TD near to you?

Because the diamonds are very small in the first place, i think that it's pointless to have them replaced by real ones. Besides, the diamonds do look sparkle in bright light and I'm happy with the way they look. Yes I know that the pusher guard edges are polished on the gen and brushed on the rep, but I actually like the way the finish on the rep and won't be polishing them. The hands are actually darker in real life than they look on the TD websites, but can look bright blue in sunlight. I'll do a bit of research on the color to decide if they need recoloring.

I'll do so bro after she's back from mods. Get one, you won't regret it Sent from Mars using tapatalk

Hate the guy, not the watch brother. Post some pics of the FC for us, and I hope you love it.. it is a staple in any AP lover's collection.

My friend, knowing you a little more after all our conversations, I think its safe to say that you would want one...

Truth be told, I am normally not a bling guy, but I find the diamond encrusted pusher edge very tasteful and subtle, with just the right touch that reminds the wearer of an oasis in the desert of gold and grey..

It's here in the flesh, the ROO Lebron James. It is a stunning watch and very well made. I'll post a proper review after she's fully modded. A quick pic for all. Sent from Mars using tapatalk

I have been waiting for the JT for a long while prior to this disappointing release.. If there is a V2, with the correct dial color, and improvements in the subdial hands and other little areas, I will be joining on on the v2 purchase..

Is there any recent AP you have not ordered brother?

In forum pics yes A, "miles apart" does apply to a reasonable extent. The V7 is a lovely watch also in real life, I just saw one on the wrist of my friend. But honestly, with so many iterations, V1-V7 and those in between (V3.5, V4.1, V5.1 etc), I would be hard pressed to tell the later versions apart, especially for modded units, when I spot a diver, gen or otherwise, on someone's wrist. Perhaps it is just not my bailiwick (cue member folex, where are you bro? ) I like the diver, and could not justify spending the money on a gen, given the steadily improving quality of the reps. Thanks to my discussion with member folex over the "white border issue" for the inner bezel numbers, I would be holding off purchasing the ss diver until this is resolved.

The pics on the website are all showing genuine watches. But I doubt that the actual products are anywhere close. Having been in this hobby for a good number of years, I doubt we missed much. This website is totally unethical at best, and a low scum scammer is probably a better description. Stay far away, and stick to the dealers here, and knowledge on the forums. Question: Suppose that the watches sold on the website are 100% as good as genuine ones, even appearing 1:1 under the jeweller loupe, then why not sell it for 20% cheaper on ebay instead of such ridiculously low prices? Does it make sense at all to anyone with half a brain?

I have handled and tested this watch for Mr J, and it is a truly beautiful piece. Yes it qualifies as a genestein or at the very least a super franken. Remarkable in every way. And Mr J, it has been a pleasure meeting and speaking with you in Singapore. You need to call on me more often, it would be a pleasure hanging out with you any day.

She is such a beauty. congrats bro!

Upon casual inspection, the A3120 movement decoration looks good. However, if you study it more carefully, the decoration still has a lot of room for improvement. It is a good effort by Noob though, as we move a step closer toward visual replication of AP calibre movements. But at the end of the day, the caseback would be seen mostly by the wearer of the watch, and is more for aesthetic pleasure than actual accuracy.

S, I have ordered the LBJ too, I think it has a very nice color and material combination. May I ask what you meant by "RG white case" w RG bracelet?

To put it in brevity mate, I'll tell you when I receive my order Sent from Mars using tapatalk
