  1. Have a wonderful weekend, guys and gals gen Fifty Fathoms chrono for me today.
  2. Rocking this gen Blancpain FF chrono today. Probably not for long...
  3. Ha finally! Always wanted one of those. Shame it's with open back, but I will definitely have to try it.
  4. Welcome, Aero. Beautiful country you have there ,gotta love the food. Tag is an excellent choice for a first rep, you will not be disappointed. I'm afraid finding a good rep for your grail Zenith will be impossible, but who knows...
  5. I don't get this thread. Asking on one forum for registration to another? don't get it...
  6. Sorry for a crappy pic, taken with my phone. My camera is dead.
  7. Yes, thanks. I talked to a friend who is an Omega AD shop owner who confirmed that
  8. I think I just wet myself. It is glorious, Nanuq! :notworthy:
  9. Confirmed by my new friend / Omega AD shop owner - only "plastics" have the logo, Speedmasters, Contellations, plastic Seamasters, all of them. She doesn't know when this practice has started, she thinks early 60's, but she'll try to ask for us in the next couple of days. Pre-moon speedies definitely have the logo, though
  10. Homages, replicas, genuine, whatever - RWG is defacto the best Watch forum on the web. Welcome aboard.
  11. I think you're just used to larger watches. On my 7" wrist the 42 looks just right
  12. That's it, man. You are officially banned!! J/K. Can't wait to see your new 288. I know you'll love it. Personally I've seen all the pictures, went to AD's to try it on etc, but when it arrived I was simply blown away by the looks of it on my wrist and the quality of materials and build. I'm definitely not a Panerai aficionado, but this watch oozes quality and style. The lume is fantastic (the best out of 3 reps I own), the crown, the pushers are smooth as silk ,actually better than on the gen I tried. The only downside is the quality of the calf strap I ordered, but maybe it's just me being spoiled by aligator and croc straps I usually wear.
  13. Tuesday already? Has to be a 288 day
  14. If you'll install another dial (if it even fits), this will definitely void the warranty and it will loose it's waterproof quality, so there is no gain there. I'd say either get a rep or get this watch and wear it as is, it looks very good.
  15. Because the OP wants to change the dial. So no water resistance, no warranty, no nothing. In this case it's better to get a rep in the first place.
  16. Also: Annoying chap: "Is this a fake?" Rep owner: "No it's a genuine MBK 1665/NOOB Pam 390/OMSE57 Planet Ocean from Joshua"
  17. Most normal people never ask. Most of the time people have no idea. I've been asked twice so far. Once in a Omega AD shop, when I walked in with my IWC rep, which lead to a great conversation with the shop owner who happens to be a rep collector as well The other time was by a very annoying self proclaimed know-it-all fella in front of other people in a meeting, so I answered: "No, it's a figment of your deranged imagination". The people around us laughed and luckily it shut him up for the whole meeting, so we were able proceed without his usual constant blah-blah and smart-ass remarks.
  18. Speedies should have them. First time I see it on Seamaster though. Thought it was a Speedster feature. When this practice has started?
