Corgi

I would hardly call myself an Internet tough guy. But I'm not shrinking violet. Integrity is knowing when you're wrong and admitting it, even on something as simple and frivolous as this. I was wrong; it's not a fantasy watch. That does not stop it from being unattractive, gauche and completely out-of-touch with style. But since I am not married to him, not his boss and do not pay his bills, I guess what someone says on an Internet discussion forum is immaterial.

But I am the Fashion Police and this watch is a violation. You are welcome to take this up with the judge if you feel you've been given this ticket in error. Mickey, you can defend him. But how on earth can you defend the indefensible?

Everyone has their own unique taste, and while I agree this watch is not something everyone can agree is a work of beauty, I find it has a pretty unique look and you know what - its not half bad in my opinion, definitely not something I would wear, but not something I hate, either. I think the Hublot big bang is a real ugly work of watch and guess what... everyone disagrees with me, but I don't get emotional about it.... relax my friend....

There's only so many watches in this world... you will inevitably always have one other person who wears the same watch you do, unless you design and build your own or buy a limited edition model. I think its just a question of dealing with it and knowing that, more than likely, you have the same look for thousands less.

I stand completely and utterly corrected!

I love it when an "internet tough guy" gets owned by something so simple...

The light catches the midlinks on the jubilee bracelet much nicer... definitely I vote for the jubilee on this just because it is a nice contrast, elegant bracelet to sporty watch.

I think a clock would be such a great idea! I would like it to be customizable so you could have your favorite brand telling you the time...

Pugwash: Of course you don't need to have that kind of stuff, but its fun! Nobody needs to see a picture of some disgruntled sea creature with the text "somebody be stolen my bucket" but its fun and clever... this forum has many things it doesn't really need..... a little fully-functioning clock would be an excellent addition, I'm in!

I bid $1

Let me be clear. I hate feminism.

Oh golly, I am so turned on right now.

Victoria, you never cease to amaze and impress me.

Cool! Those tourist destinations always have great ADs with the high-end brands, Miami must be no exception - lots of wealthy residents.

Since I always wear reps, I try usually to hide it in a pocket when I go inside... but that watch is so good you need'nt worry, only an expert in that particular brand from Switzerland could tell it was a fake...

I can't wait to see pics of the complete watch, I like the crown in this one especially.

Betcha he wears a rep sub!

This is why I let NONE of my watches even come close to water, not even those that have been "waterproofed"......

If it was me I would scour the vintage market because for $900-$1000 you can get some sharp old Rolexes, Omegas, and so on....

The Breitling ColtOcean is, in my opinion, a real work of s--t, hideous bargain basement design, atrocious value for money, definitely upgrade to a superocean if you want this style.

Seiko is too low a brand to spend more than $500...

The FORTIS chronograph suggested by Nanuq would definitely be my #1 out of all of the suggestions here, I like that it has a day-date complication and the swiss movement means reliable chronograph... but still it doesn't have the "look factor" of a high-end brand.

But why not save up a little longer and get something with real value? This item is selling on ebay for $6,500. It is 44mm and made by perhaps the finest manufacturer in the world;

And the value of that watch will only go up!

By all means be thankful that your wives take an interest (and even your watches). It will surely make it easier for you to grow your collections. My wife could care less and insists on wearing her tiny ladies Timex in lieu of several nice gens that I have bought her over the years.

Imagine having a wife whose an environmentalist and thinks the counterfeit market is ethically and morally wrong.

That must have taken a long time to write!

I know he wrote a book......... too much for a sleepy corgi tonight!!!

These tracking systems can be very confusing, oftentimes telling you the package is still in China when you are already unpacking it in North America.... just wait patiently and it will come. The longest time I waited for a watch: 3 weeks.

I agree with the camel in a turban....

wow.

That is some watch. Words cannot describe such a.... watch.

How the hell do you get the old insert out? That's what I've been wondering for a long time.

The Rolex 16613BL "TT Sub" would definitely have to be the watch I get noticed in most.

In my neck of the woods, people don't have a clue about watches... they only know "Rolex" and assume its the most expensive brand. I have had many people just gaze into this watch... it's blingy without a single diamond. On a nice, warm sunny day with short sleeves its the perfect timepiece, for the light gracefully beams in every direction and the blue face just perfectly sparkles and twinkles.... I love this watch... it's one of my favorites.

Gosh, in second place it would have to be my Sky-Moon, not because it's an expensive patek, but just because its so unusual and people often find the layout and design quite neat and fresh.

Guns are great. I say, the more the better. If somebody is trying to attack you, and you have a gun, you can defend yourself. Therefore, guns mean safety. It's basic logic really, I sleep with two UZI under my pillow, and the next person to come within 3m of my house gets evaporated. (That's if the landmine doesn't get them first)

The weight won't be the same because pure solid 18K gold is heavier than pure solid 10K gold with plated 18K gold on top of it.

Silix, Joshua, all dropship...

Only a select few of them inspect. Narikaa is my most trusted dealer for this right now. But, I assume his access to the "14K as opposed to 18K reps" is limited, though I'm unsure. I dunno how he gets his... I assume he just browses the markets... and would you really trust a counterfeit goods shopkeeper working in some guangzhou streestcorner?

"LOOKA LOOKA REAL ORIGINAL ROLEX 14K 18K 24K ALL YOU NEED SIR - USA GOOD GOOD "

I would definitely go for the PAM rep. There are two questions you need to ask yourself:

1) Do I want to get noticed for wearing an expensive, fashionable swiss timepiece?

2) Do I want to get noticed because everyone is staring at the hideous monstrosity on my wrist?

I recommend the Corgi 14K gold blue faced version. It just shimmers...
