Look around you. See that queue with 13,920 people in line? They are the ones queuing for his service, even though word has it that he has retired and hung up his.. loupe. There are other excellent watchsmiths in the forum who can probably fulfill your requests of mods. Get to know the members here, and get to know who to approach for help.

well.. I guess he either got swindled big time or he needs a new job.

that is profound.. so this is not some $5000 watch, you are sure? Because he has stated that he has saved up the equivalent of one month's pay to buy it.

and the 4 instead of 5, if you look at it.. ok but what watch is this supposed to be or what watch its emulating please?

Guys Some guy posted this watch on facebook and mentioned that it cost him a month's salary. Can someone identify this watch and tell me that he does not mean he's earning $100 a month? Thanks plenty!

Thorsten, This is not a "kinda got screwed".. this is a blatant case of being fucked. I would say that its a case of the seller knowingly and deliberately scamming you. 50Euros is pittance and it allows the seller a convenient way of wiggling out of this. I would pursue it all the way if I were you. And yes I would support you on this, just let me know what help you need my friend.

Hey J, talking about this, I saw my friend's gen diver the other day. It came with varying degrees of sunkenness on different bezel screws.. looks like AP can get sloppy with their QCs too..

Hey J I have seen gens with different degrees of sunkenness for the bezel screws as well, so it seems that this does vary from one watch to another. Yours look obviously sunken. Can I have a shot of the dial facing the camera directly to get another perspective? Thank you.

The auction was cancelled. Seems like someone must have reported it. Kudos to whoever it was.

it was a ten day old thread when you bumped it.. lol

Nice looking watch.. As for the diamond markers, I think that they could still look very bling under the correct lighting conditions. You would be surprised how similar some crystals and diamonds look, especially small ones. I, for one, would not be able to tell, from a distance of 10 feet, if someone's watch markers are real diamonds, swarovski crystals, cubic zirconium diamonds, or lab grown diamonds. I would just know that its bling and that the owner is either a lady or a rapper.

which you know you are Mike. Definitely not old enough.

Unless you are gay, mate.. I am a bloke not some pretty blond chick pretending to be a man!

:D It certainly seemed that way but rest assured that: a. I am male and b. My father is not some dangerous Sicilian who is nuts about watches c. MOAB is too young to qualify as my dad. And why are we even entertaining the possibility??

Mike, I had to re-read your post to ensure I was getting it correct. So, erm, you had one of these? For yourself?

If you have a wife or girlfriend to give it to, perfect.

Love the pic bro, and love the "deep" look of the dial.. simply awesome.

I'm currently surfing in Bali mate and doing very well indeed! No v6 for me I'll stick w my v5.1. Am happy with it. Sent from Mars using tapatalk

Honestly, on the wrist, it is a challenge to tell which version a diver is, if you do not inspect it closely. From pics in the forum, we can discuss to the moon and back about the minute intricacies, merits and flaws of each version. But on the wrist in real life, we tend to judge by looking at the person wearing the watch, more than anything else.

Actually, I feel that my friend J is showing the black rubberclad, which is a gen. Congrats J! I used to own this model but traded it for another one. Nice buy and wear her well.

Post some pics when you can, my friend. A

Actually, I have the v5.1, and the "5" and "0" are very close, but do not touch on mine. My friend owns a v5.1 from a later batch, and the 5 and 0 are pretty much stuck together. See the pic. I am contemplating whether to get the v6.0

http://www.intime.co/product.php?id_product=1306 What are the real differences vs the 5.1? It seems that the strap and buckle have been upgraded, and now it has a "correct crown guards shapes" and better lume on inner bezel? I am not aware that the previous versions all come with incorrect crown guard shapes? I wonder if the AR on the cyclops has been fixed... What do you guys think?

Thank you for believing in me Mike!
