  1. In Blue? No, Black? Hell yes! I love the new pearl and the much cleaner overall design. Oversized in a 43mm would be perfect and I can see them doing just that (the Calibre 1887 was recently released in a 43mm if I am not mistaken)
  2. For the record, this Carrera is still glued to my wrist.
  3. I have this watch in all black, bought in on a whim , for $100.00 I couldn't really go wrong!
  4. Great Red/Black GMT II Whatever, I got one of these for the girlfriend and she is in love with it. 6 months ago she never wore a watch now she won't leave home without one. I know I'm not the only one that loves a woman in a man's sport watch!
  5. Steering wheel shot with the Carrera for Friday
  6. Sometimes my tastes make me feel like a bit of an outcast but here we go again.
  7. I just purchased the all stainless steel, with stainless bezel and bracelet. I am not at all a fan of the bracelet, it is not very nice. The bracelet does not have a fine adjustment and requires some maintenance which I believe will improve the overall quality. Other than the display caseback showcasing an A7750 movement with blue screws the watch has been very accurately repped, as far as I can tell. The text on the printed Tag logo does not appear as bold as it should be, but more accurate than the applied logo on the 43mm Day/Date. Date wheel font is also wrong, but not far off, just a little thicker than the gen, I think. Pushers and Crown are accurate and of course the A7750 Chronograph movement is very good. As far as I know the case dimensions and weight are almost perfect. Definitely a good by, for $260, you won't be disappointed. For what it's worth, I would try to get your hands on the perforated leather strap. If you're intestested in the 43mm day/date I can tell you that I have that watch as well, on black crocodile, and it is my absolute favorite watch. I'm fairly new to replica watches so I advise you to seek more opinions if you are concerned, all I can tell you is that I am very happy with both Carrera watches that I have purchased.
  8. I will second that, Jomashop.com is my go to source for Gen watches. Huge selection with the notable exception of Omega, if I'm not mistaken you cannot get an Omega from Jomashop and I'm not sure why that is.
  9. To start the morning off while I wash cars and cut the grass. Happy long weekend to the Canucks out there.
  10. if they were tracking numbers they were not valid, after recieving the correct tracking number I copied, pasted and voila, my order was waiting for me at the post office. Not a typo because the numbers were entirely different from one another. really not sure what happened but all is now well.
  11. I have tracked packages through EMS before, after getting a third and finally correct tracking number from the dealer I was able to (as usual) track the package right to my door from the EMS site. I don't know why you keep telling me to input the number in Canada Post etc. I have never had to do that before and didn't this time. Thanks for the input, I just wanted to know if I was dealing with an issue with EMS or with the dealers, I guess I didn't describe the issue I was having accurately enough. I also got my answer, source of issue = dealer error.
  12. Just arrived from tony, good enough to make me enjoy working on a Friday
  13. When I track the package it cannot be located at all, this is happening with two tracking number recieved from two separate dealers. In my past experience I have always had tracking until the package reached Canada. The seaming lack of ability to recieve useful tracking information from any dealer is starting to frustrate me.
  14. While I have never seen this rotor on a 21j Tag rep that is what this movement appears to be. This does not appear to be a funtioning Chronograph either, the running seconds and chrono minutes are both at zero while the chrono hours are at 10.5ish. In every photo, the running seconds is at zero while the (would be) chrono seconds is running. I really really hope you did not pay $900.00 for this watch, or that these pictures are not of the watch you paid $900 for. Just my 2 cents but consider it worth more like 5 bucks
  15. I recieved my ems tracking information for watches that were alledgedly shipped 1 week ago but EMS says no tracking information has been recieved for that number. Is this a common error with EMS? It's nothing I have ever run into.
  16. Until I found this forum I had never purchased from any dealer other than Sino, I placed an order with tony (I realize also not a trusted dealer) that I have received very little feedback from, no tracking info and going on 3 weeks now. All of my experience with Sino, while being pricier, was honestly better. Tonight I made my first purchases from pure time and perfect clones, already the response and service seem much better. I guess I will just have to wait until some of these watches start showing up in order to compare them to my Sino watches. I actually ordered a Carrera day date identical to the one I ordered from Sino and will be comparing both watches when it arrives. I only quickly read this thread but thought I could give my 2 cents, given my limited but good experience with Sino. While I don't know what keeps them off of the trusted sellers list, I also don't make the list and like someone said earlier, we are all free to purchase from any dealer we please. There is something to be said for the trusted dealers and the weight of this community that seems to keep them honest. Welcome aboard Zulu, and thanks to the rest of the forum for your collective knowledge from which I am quickly learning.
  17. On my way to work, brighten my morning with the Carrera
  18. Just heard from tony, with pictures, watches may already be on their way. I think the girlfriend is more excited than me (the GMT Master II is for her)
  19. My Citizen Skyhawk has always drawn the most attention, while I like this watch, I'm not entirely sure why it attracts so much attention. Rarely does anyone comment on other watches that I consider to be much nicer. Slgithly related, my 2008 G6 GXP coupe recieved far more attention than my Infiniti FX45 or the Audi S5 that replaced the G6, The latter being far superior cars in my (anyone's) opinion.
  20. Thanks for the input, I am confident that I will recieve a quality product from this order and I guess I will just have to be patient. I am hoping to have my new Chronograph before the Canadian Grand Prix and I know the wife is excited about her new red/black GMT II for the trip.
  21. This Sea Dweller has really grown on me
  22. Went to work still wearing my Tissot, came home and slipped my hand into the Rolex. I was never a fan of Dive watches but the Deep Sea is a beautiful timepiece
