    This last picture is not really focused on a watch but still I like it because it shows how polished ceramic reflects everythin... cool effect:

    Thanks for looking!

    What is this called again? A "mochomor" or something like that?

    The Hublot looks really great, by the way..

  2. As the owner of a classy VC rep myself I can honestly say you can't do wrong with that choice.

    It is part of the "Les Historiques" collection and it shows; things back then were made with a certain kind of class that modern watches seem to lack. I love how the shape of it just seems to flow so naturally; what's more, the stainless-steel caseback means a resilient underbelly that won't get damaged or faded like some other fully gold-plated watches.

    All around this is an incredible watch and while it may not be blingy like a "Hublot" or safe like a "Datejust" its in a unique category defined by excellence and fine craftsmanship from days-gone-by.

    Congratulations on the watch and thanks for the pictures... there are very few around of this particular model.

  3. yes I have purchased many. My advice to you:

    1. Stay away from replica fountain pens. They are garbage and do not work. If you want a MB fountain then get GEN.

    2. Do not spend more than $30 on a fake pen.

    3. The Imperial Dragon Rollerball has surprisingly long-lasting gold applique

    4. The Starwalker is a very good (and affordable) rep.

  4. Hi R.

    I did in september 2008 Vienna... i traveled there and back just to see this watch in an AD live since i was seriously thinking of getting it...

    what happened ... <_< HUGE disappointment ... the fit and finish was way below my expectations the hole watch looked cheap... specially the bezel rotating system ... not only that it sounded like turning a cheap canal street rep it also had some play!!! can u believe it sheeesh :( also the strap is a joke thin looking cheap also noticed that where the buckle was attached it had a 0.5mm of play between the strap and buckle and that on both sides ....

    i cant stress enough the disappointment ... at 9.8k euro they were asking for it.

    Still i like the design and the history behind the fifty, so i would purchase the rep. but gen. i will stay away from.

    regards Laz

    The lack of quality fit and finish means the rep could be even more accurate. They always say you can't replicate the feel of a gen, well after reading this, I beg to differ... if it's even half as good as some of my other reps we could be looking at the next super rep. Not to mention it would sell like crazy. They'll make one eventually... I believe it.
