@tribal, thanks for the heads up. I know that lug hole position is more important than size. it would be awesome to have one less mod though.

was the bracelet youfit a gen?

I cant believe this is happening. lug holes, gen construction, gen like crown, near perfect crystal. I am in awe of what chris is doing for the rep world. lets hope he doesnt get kidnapped by a black van with rollie plates...

so i do wonder if this takes gen spring bars with no mods. i think i would cry if things got that good...

thanks for doing this chris...

watch in the link has a hollow link sel bracelet... edges look totally sharp, maybe a noob bracelet? crown on clasp looks like the one on the noob as well... any else agree?

WOW... I want one... You may get a pm from me...

not to get caught up in the details of your system, but what are you going to be driving them with? and are you going to be using stands?

Some of my favorites in no particular order are the Vienna Acousitcs Haydn, the Sonus Faber Concertino Domus, Boston Acoustic VRM60 and as you have listed above, the Wharfedale - Diamond 9.1. But there are so many I like... most of which you will hate.

The only real advise I can share is this... take your discs/music player and camp out at a decent AD. Listen to EVERYTHING. Listen to good speakers, listen to bad ones. Listen to ones half your price point, and 3 times your price point. listen to the same song on over and over on each of the speakers you are thinking about. Get lost in the songs, and listen for the speaker. if it is the one for you, you will not hear the speaker, just the music. in the end, I would rather learn to dislike a prospective model at the store then get them home and hate them.

I wish you the best of luck and let us know what you choose.

Is a sad day for Paul Newman fans everywhere. I am watching one of my favorite Newman movies today, Slap Shot.

In remberance, list your favorite newman movie, and if you have it, watch it...

This combo today... UPO on rubber...

amazing pic...I wish I liked the watch more... I just dont know about the maxi dial/hands...

I love the IWC case... and the "candy" graham....

I have a gen crown on my expII, and a rep crown on my exp I. the exp I crown screws down like butter... the expII is a pain in the butt...

they both look identical when screwed in. as bytor said, dont sweat it, just enjoy the watch

i am listening to the sacd of dark side right now in his memory... a major loss...

my question is... were the boobies reps or gens... must see some pics to judge...

your link is not for a ssd...

this link is...

just ask ruby for a v2 ssd. good luck

$50 is a bit high do you think? and yes I am being serious... I would not consider this watch... use the search here, and for $100 or so you can get a superior watch... good luck

if you can wear a pam, the 008 is nearly perfect out of the box. I own a modded INGE and Love it to death. totally worth the effort, and as was said by others, is nearly perfect when done.

good luck

@kiterpete- I love the ocean 7. I have considered their chrono version of that watch. very very nice...

Not my wrist, but Sam was sporting a fine 16610 on one arm and sexy lindsey on the other... what a world, what a world...

hey its gio in a wrist thread... welcome back happen to be wearing my ssd today as well, I do wish I was on the beach and not in the office...

I love the dimple in the spring bar at the clasp. a year ago I would have never known that fact... thanks RWG

amazing looking watch. it is exactly what I hope Chris brings us...

Wow... that is sexy... I must know more...

any "lume" shots?

very nice workmanship... good luck with the sales...

if the gmt is on a jubilee, I would grab that one... good luck...

upo for monday... I do wish I was on holiday though...

wow... amazing work rob...

Opened the box to put on the seadweller this morning and the EXP II called out to me... always a pleasure...
