  1. Mr Z, have I displayed my envy and covetting spirit yet? I am camping here for two purposes a. To whip your butt with a hickory switch periodically (haven't found the reason why yet so dont ask) b. To see your assembled masterpiece, drool over it and kick myself for not being able to afford one In that specific order. :D
  2. and another +28,976 some people will never learn. I wonder why they even bother to seek advice?
  3. TeeJay matey, when you get inducted into the Yakuza tattoo hall of fame, don't forget to thank us who helped you identify the correct character for "soup"!
  4. has the mossad sent you his head on a silver platter yet? If so post a pic!
  5. I am amazed at how some people try to pull a fast one. Trusted dealer? I am beginning to agree with TeeJay on their credentials.
  6. if your page scroll button is working, scroll down the main page a little. Alternatively, do a simple search. You'll find the list. Its really quite easy.
  7. And yes, of course you are entitled to your opinion about how wonderful the watches offered on the site you mentioned are, how different, how special, how SWISS. Enjoy your purchase, and enjoy especially the "swiss quality" watches! They always say there's an idiot born every minute. I was merely trying to prevent one being born right now.
  8. you had good advice from guys in the other thread you started asking about the same thing... and is apparently choosing to ignore it to pursue your "1:1 swiss replica" Perhaps the best thing to do is to let you go purchase from them, pay the inflated prices, and learn that the only Swiss components in the watches are the names printed on the dials. good luck, and you get no further help from me, newbie.
  9. Thank you for the clarification.. Actually this is the first vintage dress watch that I took a fancy to in a long while. From the pictures, I noticed the subdial hand was slightly off the center, to the left.. I assume that the movement has not been fitted yet? I am looking forward to seeing this again when its up and running on your wrist. Truly a beauty.
  10. gosh you're serious! post a pic dude!
  11. Its a very beautiful vintage watch, congrats! Just a little note, from a total PP noob: The subdial is a secondhand dial right?
  12. come on mate, say you aint serious about the tattoo . which nutcase would tattoo the character for "soup" on his buttock, or anywhere on his body for that matter?
  13. you gave the game away too soon Ken
  14. its really perfect visually, and makes your watch stand out against the common deary looking rollies anywhere you go!
  15. lovely. Let me know when you get tired of this
  16. Oh yes mate, the dialects, the damned dialects They form a huge part of the language culture in China, with each province, or towns within the same province speaking their own dialects. But at the end of the day buddy, I came to the conclusion that Chinese must not be a difficult language to learn, since the 3 yr old kids there are speaking them? :D
  17. lol.. let me share my experience. My TD has the entire site removed and I am reduced to communicating via email with her to let her know which watch I want, and she'll email me back with how much it is, if its available. Nothing for me to browse or choose Toro's customers seem to be enjoying the benefits of a fuller inventory? Likewise I see Andrew's customers being a relatively happy lot?
  18. tomhorn and rickdangerous have given you honest and good replies. There are NO swiss replicas, only very good chinese ones. Also, there are extremely crappy chinese reps, so be careful. It is possible to find chinese replicas with ETA and Selita movements, but they are still being assembled in china, with chinese hands for labor and chinese eyes for first tier quality control. There is no one best site to make your purchase. Ask different members, and you get different replies. There are a lot of TDs available here, take your pick. Price wise, they are all very close. You might get different variants of the same watch from different sites, but they generally offer the same models sourced from the same factory. Each shopping experience carries its own shipping and custom risk, which you will have to bear. Alternatively, you can try purchasing watches from members here under the trading section.
