Wow...

What about "Victoria forever" ?

My wife finds it's not a really good idea...

Well, the gold one deserves a brown strap, but you're right, I won't take any risk... Black croc... Pebble pattern...

It's incredible how VC reps are nice for the price...

I don't understand the meaning of the second sentence...

Hi Folks,

My new toy (arrived today). That's a gift rep which I won on RWC as contributor... Well, first time to win something, at least in the past 10 years. I'm proud and most of all glad about this. Let me share quick shots of my first free rep

Now ordering a gen croc strap to make it perfect. Black or brown ?

And I think I will have something engraved on the caseback... Any idea about the text ??

Here's the movie chrgod mentionned.

Minute 2:23

Catalogue-worthy shot!

Pix, thanks for this quick but very informative review. Sometimes, one just wants to know the "tells" in a rep watch, without having to read paragraphs (does that sound ungrateful? Yes, but I hope people know what I mean!). Your 1-2-3 tells were very important. And one should take care to watch out for the hands size.

Thanks for the round-up of other links too!

Thx all...

Victoria, actually I like to share my experience by reviewing more in detail...

But that's valid for unknown reps (typically my field, except these days) .

For the most known, I feel that there are treasures of information and very detailed reviews already. I don't really see what I can bring as a contribution in these cases. Therefore the small pictorials and a few comments. I'm glad you liked it.

Thx for your providential comment

That would save me almost 30% of the rep price by not upgrading the DW...

It makes sense. I was just wondering due to a quite large surface created by the pushers on the 2 sides of the crown, as well as by the crownguard.

Hi,

what about these seconds@3 Corum which have recently popped up : do the gen exist ?

BTW, is it 44 including crown, or do we have to add an apparently other 5 mm ?

There's a thing I forgot to mention : the lume is really poor... Compared to better luming we see these days on other reps.

Hi Folks,

well I think that all has been said about this legendary rep but I could not help launching a new thread with a small homage in pictures.

Prior to posting my shots, I think it makes sense to link to threads which made me pull the trigger on that other Genta's masterpiece :

Awesome SD4K's review

Hi,

when the question is asked in a gentle manner, I am usually not reluctant in answering : it's part of my fun in the hobby. Although I find it more useful for all to post these questions on the boards.

When it comes to "what's the best this or that" or if the question isn't asked as it should be (see St

RWG is the only place for me where I can meet a lady who has the same addiction as I have...

That never happens in real life...

...whatever the addiction is.

It's also the place of maturity : you can have any discussion (related to rep or not), you always meet the right person to learn from.

I'm sure Queen Victoria will love it...

What you see here, folks, is a lite HBB with the best AR coating I have ever seen (and a small mod with the bezel, but that's an other story...)

E.U. members (and others), K2222 is definitely the member of the year for me : he's going to transform my whole collection...

Hi YM,

I'd like to order this box, but it's not exactly what I'd call cheap.

How is it qualitywise ?

Mine is on its way to Poland too

Sorry if my question sounds stupid : isn't the screw just for decoration, and the bracelet holding with normal springbars ?

I have doubts that they made a special tool with such a shape (same facts with the Montblanc Timewalker indeed)

Sure Pugwash. But this can also be modified if you really want to cheat.

Users experiences (good AND bad) are necessary. People often forget the latter...

If I prefer mechanical movements for being proud of owning some kind of rare/different/complicated piece on my wrist, I have nothing against quartz, depending on what I'm looking in the watch :

- reliability ? Quartz

- good replication : most often the mechanical movement, except when a quartz replicates an other quartz

- both : I buy a gen

- spend less : quartz

etc...

I own several quartz reps. None are good reps, but all are great watches.

Is this a rep??

A genuine rep, yes indeed...

@The Zigmeister

Shame, shame on me !

We know who we trust...

Excellent idea !

Unless you're able not to move during 15 seconds, taking a lumeshot on your wrist is a good way...

I think it's the first time I have to make an objection on your opinion The Zigmeister

Take a lumeshot with a long exposure (15 seconds for instance), open the door or the light for a short time : you have a glowing dial and daylight... (actually that's what I'm doing)

It is very difficult to rely on such shots. Confidence, faith and reputation are the only ways I'm afraid.

Week-end's slowly starting.

Friday wear : my Porsche Design Flat 6 @the office.

I think I fall in love...

To make sure there was an improvement with reluming, the modder could for example shoot several reps together. The modded one should glow more than the others.

With lume or whatever else, the one who wants to cheat you will manage it without problem : Photoshop can completely transform your watch, independantly from your camera settings.

At the end, only the reputation of the member can help you. Don't believe all what you see, and of course not all what you're being told.
