  1. shame its not Ti anymore, but even still, its better looking than the deep sea....
  2. there is no crystal in those pics... I think that I read above... watch looks great though. wear it well....
  3. there is no thread I would rather make my 300th post in. I am in awe of the amazing timepieces that you all tease me with. my "great white" is on its way back from canada as we speak, but it is not nearly as "great" as yours bytor. mez, once my "great white" exp II is done I will be hitting you up for some pointers on my next great white. then I will be a happy camper thanks for all the great advice and pics guys... I really enjoyed my first year here.
  4. @the mentalist, I completely agree that the new DSSD is 100% rolex. I just don't think the aesthetic design is a very good one. my AD should have one the day they are availble. I do like how they beefed up the datejust line. there is something very tasteful in the way they grew parts of the case. again just my thoughts...
  5. ok so I'm buying a DSSD... can anyone help me with my list of mods? - fix the crown guards - polish the [censored] off the rehault - noob dial - watchmaster insert anything else? breitling made a watch capible of 10000ft and made it look a breitling, and look good at the same time. rolex designers seem to have gotten lost in their concept. their end product is just not balanced. and you may think the ym2 is ugly, and I would agree with you. but the new movement is an amazing achievement from what I understand. maybe someday the movement will live in a tasteful case. just my thoughts....
  6. I think the ceramic looks cheap. I cant look at the new watches and not get a little sad. There are so many things wrong with the proportions of these watches. Its a sad day.... on a side note, here is the real rolex deep sea...
  7. omega, thank you for a real sized desktop image. nothing like 1080p of bce goodness
  8. contact your dealer. they may pay for the repair instead of having it sent back. I have a dealer pay to have a crooked marker fixed my a watchsmith instead of having it sent back to china good luck
  9. those recordings sound like some of my cell phone calls... damn you tmobile.....
  10. anyone know what time the gtg is supposed to start? I'm here and not sure what time it starts thanks
  11. @ bytor, my white expII is up at The Zigmeister. if everything goes well, I will be adding a gen dial like yours this summer. amazing pics my friend.
  12. not trying to thread crap, but I have this same gen strap up for sale to benifit potr. there is no comparison gen to rep. take a look http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showto...amp;hl=prodiver
  13. @dvn, when the natick store opened, they pulled all thier best vintage pieces from surrounding stores for the opening. they had every vintage rolex you could imagine. it was amazing. I was just there last sunday. put my upo in my pocket. i tried on a few pieces. the sales man said "you must wear something big" as he looked at my watch tan. i said yea, a planet ocean big size. he smiled, said very nice dive watch. have you ever considered a seadweller? I told him I owned a very similar watch, but its not an everyday kinda watch. on a side note, i went into another Tourneau and asked to purchase a pro diver strap. he asked what i was going to wear it on and I said my seiko diver. I told him i hated the seiko band and loved my buddies prodiver, and wanted to buy one. they ordered it, and that was that. well thats my bit... good luck
  14. any pics of the he valve on the po?
  15. no contact from ttk concerning my group buy item. not worried about it. it will get here. TTK is not a scammer. just unique.
  16. thanks for the tips. Since this is my next purchase, I will add them to the mods. Now, to source a lello datewheel, and email The Zigmeister
  17. happy st paddy's day man, the guiness is flowing freely here in beantown. my suggestion for the swirls is this... stay out of the sun. relume the hell out of it and enjoy the darkness
  18. I believe there is an eta option. I will be looking for a movement upgrade soon as well. good luck with your quest
  19. predfan good luck with your transition. I would consider the IWC ingy and the UPO of course. the upo is my daily beater, and the IWC is my next conquest after trying a gen on this past week. good luck, and dont forget to post pics when you make your decisions
  20. thanks for the update on the sticker... more interesting to me is that your AD actually gave you a price for a bracelet without a watch in hand? Not in my town. not for r0lex anyway. very intersting...
  21. amazing... but you should get the skinny nato... then its movie perfect. congrats and wear it well.
  22. great shots, I own a very similar piece, but with an eta. the biggest flaw is the etched crown. as far as I can research, the gen has no etched crown in the crystal. I love the exp I. I wear mine ona nato strap. maybe someday I will try to find a better crystal for it. other than that its railmaster good... thanks for the post and the pics. wear it well.
  23. predfan, the gmt looks pretty good, now lets work on you and that crappy beer. Lifes to short to drink bad beer....
