  1. Hey, it's not my pic... come on, I could never take credit of such noisy and dirty shot. It's a web find of a gen. This is my pic:
  2. I have almost bought this watch many times but I must resist... Seriously... great, great rep... and I love the display caseback.
  3. Can't comment since I have never seen the grey dial rep in person. All I know the color of the blue dial version is spot on. Pic of a gen:
  4. This might help you to find the Breitling you want: http://www.rwg.cc/members/Community-Guide-...cas-t12678.html And from now on... any chance of posting the Breitling stuff and questions to the Breitling section... NOT to General Discussion? Thanks.
  5. Rep. The YACHT MASTER font is too thin... and the font in "SUPERLATIVE CHRONOMETER" etc. is wrong. Very nice though.
  6. I only checked the anniversary GMT's and they both looked genuine. What makes you think they're not?
  7. Outstanding work again mr.Z. And as everyone have said already... this movement might be the solution for us... in the future.

    New SMP?

    The "closed factory" version was 007 Special Edition watch... not the standard SMP. It turned out to be a hoax (partly). It had Seagull movement insted of ETA (as advertised). This is the old replica version of the SMP (my watch). The new ones aren't quite as accurate. Perhaps you could try buying one of these from the members (put a post to the request section). And no... I'm not selling mine.
  9. I decided to wear a Sub after a long break today. And I kinda liked it.
  10. Oops... edit... I posted a reply to the wrong thread. But I agree with my mate RT... it's better to wait a few weeks or months when a new model comes out. I have made some impulse buys... watches that really aren't for me... like Navitimer. I love the Navi and it's a legendary model... I've purchased two... but for some strange reason it doesn't feel that great on my wrist. I also think the new TAG Carrera rep is amazing but I find the design too ordinary. Too much like Omega Speedmaster... and I doubt I'd wear it that much. I almost purchased it but decided to wait a few weeks - and then changed my mind. I'm not a collector and I want to keep my collection compact... and I don't want to buy any reps that would just collect dust in the drawer.
  11. Beautiful as usual. What's next you ask? A GMT Master of course. You have all the great sports Rollies now... but not the nicest one.
  12. Great and informative post as usual. Thanks Z. Should be sticky.
  13. Good morning... I just gave this one a few shakes and set the time. So this one for Friday...
  14. I think it's really cool. Not pretty... but cool like Seiko Orange Monster and Doxa. I know Hydronaut is excellent quality watch... I have handled the gen. Does Rolex still manufacture the Tudor cases... or are they completely independent company these days?
  15. Works now. Thanks Thomas!! PS: Not a big deal but there's the same problem on TRC too...
  16. Now the forum software once again shrinks perfectly good sized pictures. The last time Thomas set the width limit to 800 pixels which was perfect. Now it again shrinks even small pictures and makes the user "click for full size". This same problem is at TRC. The picture width of 800 was a great limit, can we get it back?
  17. It's simple: don't buy from the dropshippers. I'm not saying this will eliminate all the QC issues... but I only buy from fellow trusted members and dealers who ship their own stock... and I've yet to receive a defective watch.
  18. I love colorful watches with extraordinary and garish color combinations. Like Pug, I have also owned a Seiko Orange Monster. I also love the Zenith Rainbow Flyback. I wish this was repped...
  19. Thanks Bigdoggy... not a bad Sub for $95, eh?
  20. @Scoobs: Glad to hear that... and you're welcome mate.
  21. I agree... mirrors are challenging, but that's part of the fun. I have done a few "mirror shots"... but would like to do more.
  22. I'm wearing the same as JTB... the good old Seamaster Bond.
  23. Thanks all. @Delta and Stephane: Great shots. @Pug: Yeah, I have pretty much gotten the lighting in order. Now I've been trying to find some kind of black, shiny and reflective surface for my photos. Mirror is interesting surface too.
  24. Thanks Chronomat. Here's yet another shot...
