Like this one...

Ideal would be to remove the linked style traditional band that would come on it for something perhaps like black leather but obviously I need to aquire the watch first.

Thanks

I am looking for a nice Daytona Cosmograph Oyster Pro (not sure if I said that right but all the right words are there).

Obviously I am new to this whole thing so I have no clue who offers them let alone who offers the best or best price etc.

If anyone could point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

Thanks

I suppose I am still a member of the 501st but I have not been active in anything for several years.

I was using the number long before it became popular with the trooping crowd for a number of reasons and it has just stuck so I keep it as my online presence. However it does originate from SW.

Well after much debate with my wife she and I both agree that we like the Rolex Cosmograph Daytona with the white face in stainless steel. I personally like it with a black leather band but she likes the traditional metal band look.

Anyway, this is what I think I am looking for now...

Image lifted from a site where I was doing some research on the different looks of this watch.

So can anyone point me to a good quality replica of this with the proper sweeping movement (I hope I said that right).

Thanks

Yeah my wife wants me to buy a watch... I guess that is a little odd for you guys huh?

I practice Wing Chun ( a form of Kung Fu) which uses a lot of sensitivity in the forearms and a watch is both a limitation in my ability to feel things as well as an aid to an opponent in trying to grasp or hold and arm.

Back to the subject at hand...

I will troll through the sections mentioned and see what I find.

I really don't know anything about any watch brands besides the occasional view of the Rolex brand so I am not sold on any name over another. Truely a babe in the woods on this.

I am not much for the "gold bling" look so stainless or something in that realm would be best.

Pugwash - I like that a lot from the looks. Is your board name from Theadore the tug boat? My kids used to watch that when they were little and there was a submarine on the show named Pugwash.

Hello everyone.

A friend tipped me that this forum would be a great place to find what I need.

Brief history on me... I am a late 30 something professional who never uses a watch. I don't even own one (seriously). I always rely on my cell phone etc. My lack of a watch started in my early 20's when I got more serious in my martial arts hobby which requires a lot of contact in the wrist area and anything in my wrist area created a problem. Anyway, I stopped using them and never looked back.

Fast forward to today and I keep getting nagged by my wife that I need a nice watch for events like weddings, important business meetings etc. I refuse to pay the super premium prices of the real thing when I would not be wearing it regularly so this route seems to be a good choice.

SO... my I am looking for some advice on where to look for a nice really high quality replica of something like a nice end Rolex. I use that brand name since they are really the only high end watches I have ever been exposed to. I know nothing about the different models or features or prices for that matter so I could use a little guide to them both visually and with feature description. Then price and reliability of a dealer.

Any help would be appreciated and I appologize if I am yet another newbie who brings nothing to the group.

Thanks

Lonnie
