WHAT TIME IS IT?

IT'S AMERICA TIME!!!

Hmmmm I wonder what could it be....

I'm a stickler for the details. I tend to notice the small things.

I'm exactly the same. I learned very early on in the replica game that you have to suspend those thoughts, otherwise you will go bald pulling out your hair and lose your voice screaming whenever you notice a problem with one of your watches.

I like the one with the blue face.

Welcome.

I have the same exact model. However, I prefer to wear my Chronomat Evolution because it's more shiny.

He is very unimpressed with my 1665 (MBW, fully modded slow beat eta ubi datewheel gen crown and tube drilled lugs etc etc) but thinks that the latest sub with the enhgraved rehaut is fantastic.

Well I think his opinion is legitimate. Gen > fake any where, any time. Even if it's an ugly gen vs. a good looking fake.

I like walking into high end watch stores from time to time but I'm also wearing my rep

You probably shouldn't be doing that. Ever.

One of your family members is playing a practical joke on you...

If not, I still don't think you have reason to worry. If they ask say "what watches?" "what letter?" "duhhh?? who are you people???" "harassment!" it works every time.

At least you used the official horological terminology!!

Patek Philippe is a must have watch and this one is a unique design to indulge every moment in time. It is one of the best watches I have ever owned. It is very stylish and always reliable. This will be a watch to show off with friends and family. In the face it has 9 small diamonds in it with very nice face that is a class of it's own. The leather strap stands out as well with white gold around the face and inside, including hands. This is very rare Patek watch and it's very well taken care of. I only worn it 5 times or so. I really don't feel safe to just wear in any day. Very expensive and I don't want to damage it! I prefer you pamper it yourself as well. One more thing, Only taking bank Transfers, Paypal or personal checks. Personal checks must have copy of ID and a proof that funds are in account with a bank phone number and address! Willing to take offers on ebay bidding first, then email me after you bid to ask if you would like to buy it or not. Oh yeah, Besides the watch box in pictures, I will also give you the original wooden box with window and outside cover box and paper documents as well.Take care and Happy bidding!"

I hope I don't get flamed for this but...

You would be surprised how amazingly accurate this watch is for the price.

My daughter recieved a Hannah Montana wall clock with sweeping seconds hand for her birthday.

It is not quiet tho.

This is off topic but I just have to vent my anger whenever I hear those two magical words. Hannah Montana is an awful program which is terrible for children and promotes very negative values - it's like one giant ad campaign. I watched a little bit of it and it made me sick. The little girl maintains a good relationship with her father because he buys her whatever the hell she wants. Right. That's something I want children to pick up. What happened to the good shows we had when we were kids?

I am a well-established member here with over 1,500 posts and excellent business dealings with many board dealers; I also visit the site more than once a day. The Zigmeister is yet to acknowledge my existence despite my attempts at contacting him even before he set up the magical list.

All I can say is good luck sir.

This show is so fake its just goofy...

I've seen these all over local business and institutions of all kinds from many different brands. I've always been impressed by the sweep but most of them have a very bland, industrialist styling whereby production seemed to focus on pure function with zero aesthetics in mind. I like it, but I would never hang something like this in my house. Come on... what would people think if they saw Corgi has the same clock as the one in the waiting room at the DMV?

My personal experienced recommendation to you is Narikaa. On an order of that magnitude, quality control would be my top priority.

That's just my personal need though.

Do you think hour markers would have fallen off a gen under the same circumstances?

Can't the community establish a connection with the manufacturer directly (perhaps through one of our well known dealers), come to some sort of understanding and build a mutually profitable relationship trading in specific movement parts only?

I am still in the process of breaking in my super aquanaut

edit: @stormtrooper4: How can that be the rep of the year when I just happen to be wearing the real rep of the year on my wrist today?

"But i will not miss this board... "

And we will not miss you either. Goodby!

Carl

What he wrote is a non sequitur. I think he just screwed up the English.. because he states he "won't miss the board" but then he writes about all the friends he made here etc...

What kind of watch belongs in what corporate setting has been a topic of discussion here many times. This particular timepiece is, in my opinion, no more attention-grabbing then a 49mm Railmaster, Fiddy, or Bentley - all of which are popular and worn regularly by many people. Bottom line in my opinion, if you find it comfortable and it looks good on you, go for it. Life is too short getting worried about what others think about your watch. If you like wearing your AP ROO Lanikai then wear it to your hearts content and know that you have my full support!

I think it's an excellent idea. While we are rep lovers, I think many of us are plain watch lovers at heart. And a recent thread with "gen only" wrist shots proves it. I don't think there needs to be animosity between either world, and support your suggestion 100%. There could at least be a special segment of the photography board reserved for sharing pictures of gens.

I would say let's keep it more oriented towards "fun" because anything more, especially technical model-specific advice is probably still best found at timezone or another manufacturer specific website.
