  1. Let me know if you ever get tired of it.
  2. My oldest surviving rep is from Eddie Lee. My SMP Chrono. This one is really special. Will never part with it.
  3. Amazing... congrats to mom & dad and best wishes to little Olek!!!
  4. This US team will be something in 2014. They're all still kids (only a few vets in the lineup).
  5. I think defense decided this game. Both Canada goals in regular time came from defensive mistakes. The first one was so and so... but Whitney screwed up royally in the second one. Rafalski was the best d-man of the tournament but Crosby's OT goal came from his soft play. Missing Komisarek and Paul Martin was a tough one. They were very important d-men for the US team (both were out, didn't make it to the Olympics because of injuries). I'm pretty annoyed to be honest. I wanted USA to take this one for a change. But congrats to Canada of course. Great team... they truly deserved it. Before the tournament everyone was talking about Russia and their superior talent. I knew they'd blew it. PS: Merged 2 threads together.
  6. Awesome Rolex/Tudor collection. I love the 1675, that's definitely a keeper as the prices climb up slowly but surely. But what's the story with that all red 24h hand... have you painted it?
  7. That's a great quality rep. You can see it from small details like the pearl. I wonder if the gen Colt, Seawolf and Steelfish all use the same case (maybe with small modifications)?
  8. It's been quite a while since I owned that but I recall the subdials were white. Here is more about this watch.
  9. Andreww probably remembers better but I recall there has never been a decent TT rep of the 6-9-12 version. Maybe they made them with the old slow beat 7750 but that rep was way inferior. What's wrong with the new one?
  10. That is exactly what you said: Small but very nice addition. This kind of details are exactly what we watch enthusiasts love. PS: That's a lovely Tudor chrono. Justasgood pm'd photos of his blue version. Great watches.
  11. Going with my oldest and dearest rep today. I wish I could find a gen insert for this beauty.
  12. It's going to be Luongo vs. Miller. And Miller has been the best goalie of the tournament hands down. Canada has the size and physical advantage but USA has the speed and youth. I predict very tight game but I'm rooting for the US team. Those kids haven't won anything in their careers yet.
  13. I agree. That looks sharp. But the blue on the gen looks exactly the same as the Fish blue. The rep blue will be totally off again. I would just stick with the black one.
  14. Not "ballsy"... I believe this Einstein has probably just stolen random pictures of a black SMP from Ebay and haven't noticed anything when he composed the sales photos together.
  15. This looks like a scam to me. First photo is of a midsized Seamaster. Fourth and fifth photo is of a full size Seamaster. Just compare the '3 hour marker. Two watches. Stay the hell away from this seller.
  16. I agree... BTR wears amazing. Because of the lug shape it doesn't look overly big.
  17. Is that something to eat? Sounds delicious.
  18. Personally, I think watch shape has a lot to do with it. Not just size. But I don't really care for overly huge watches generally. Maybe you'd get used to them though. Ebel BTR (at 45mm) looks great but UPO (45mm) is just too big. It looked too big on me, and I'm 6'3 and 270 pounds. It's just clumsy and unbalanced... dunno how SA would look. UPO protruded ugly on my wrist bone and the dial is too basic, plain. Not much going on there. That's why 42mm PO is much nicer.
  19. For once we see a member who has wrists for the SA. Now that's a watch that looks silly on puny wrists. Wear it well!
  20. I'm with Thogaa. Still wearing my new Fish.
  21. @Cats: I'm only into steel sports watches. Actually I wouldn't mind the two-tone El Primero chrono version. But if I were you I wouldn't sell that one. It's pure class.
  22. Welcome speedy! Speedmaster Date is a great choice! Remember to post pics when it arrives. Enjoy the ride.
