  1. Happy Birthday Estaban!

  2. I just wanted to say thank you and pass on some kind words to the members of this forum. I have enjoyed the three plus years I have spent here. I've learned a lot, had far too many watches pass through my hands, and even more straps. I bet I've spent 2000 hours minimum over the past three years browsing, typing, reading, oogling here. It's a good place! There are a lot of good folks here. The ones who have brought me the most enjoyment for a variety of reasons are the following: Kruzer (Warren)-for your passion of all things watches and modding. The Zigmeister (Rob)-ditto V (Kostas)-for all things strap related Rocket-for pictures of your significant other Darthsimon-where are you?-Started my rep fancy Star (Timm)-for hooking me up. I'll never part with your watch. Promise! TTK (Neil)-for your never ending zings and beautiful pictures. You could make a turd look, and probably smell good. The Mods-For keeping it real (or should I say rep) I've left off quite a few people, but I think you get the idea. I'll poke my head in once in a while, but I'm done with reps, except for my watch from Star. Nothing bad about reps, I'm just bored and am moving on to other things. Feel free to keep in touch! Some parting shots:
  3. While I appreciate the attention to detail that Rob put into this watch, it is my least favorite Pam. The polished case, bezel, and CG is over the top. Seems out of place on a sub. I prefer the 25, Arktos, La Bomba, or 243.
  4. Tremendous. Maybe a bit too much of the same general watch, but each one is super. I prefer the Pam 1 over the others. Any time you can get a quality rep with a closed caseback you've got a leg up on the rest. The tritium lume on the 1 looks super.
  5. Kostas, I love the 1954. I found one but the seller was located in Singapore and didn't want to ship overseas. I would have kept all my 26mm straps if he would have sold it to me. Who did you get your unbranded 1938 from?
  6. Nice pickup Kostas. I've been on the fence about that watch for a long time. I actually considered picking up one of these. http://www.retrospectwatch.com/1938a.html I think I have a strap that would suit your needs (the dark brown Bob buffalo) http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=61142 Trade for a nice 24/24???
  7. Rob, I hope is wasn't my super dodgy 187 that sent you over the edge. I might have called it quits too if I had to deal with me and my watch! On another note, I too am going to step away from "Repdom". You'll be seeing a fire sale starting tonight. Not too much, but enough to keep some folks happy. I've spent way too much time here over the past three plus years. Many good times, good friends, and interesting banter. Rob----thank you for your contribution to my cursory understanding of watches. But reading your posts and some of the others here, I feel like I can talk shop with most WIS, from the rep and "real" world. Peace! I'm sure Kruzer will be missing you the most!
  8. The sub is not a La Bomba or a 187. It's an 064. 44m, not 47mm.
  9. I agree. Very comfortable strap. I've never had a problem with rubber/silicone straps.
  10. Great watches you have there.
  11. That's easy. My 187. Worked well for a while and then the chrono pushers stopped working. Sent to The Zigmeister for relumed dial and service. Found out that the movement was toast. It's being sent back to me DOA. Done with Asian 7750 CHRONO watchs. I've had two Asian 7750s that were great in non-chronos. Anyone want a donor 187 for parts (including relumed hands and bezel pearl)?
  12. I'll throw my serial number guess out there--------------------- 1221 I love palindromes
  13. Rob has now achieved the level of "enlightened one" in terms of watch dharma. Did I get tritium lume on my 187? I may just have to go out and get myself one more sausage dialed pam just so I can get the The Zigmeister spa treatment. Awesome post. There is a HUGE difference between what happens in The Zigmeister's "office" and elsewhere.
  14. The more I see this watch, the more I like it. 48mm of AR glory must be the attraction. Still don't think it would replace my Pam affliction like you Dog.
