Hi Robi, Thank you so much for your help. 80$ shiped seems a good price indeed Cheers Stephane

Interresting inputs guys. Vlydog, yours must have a rotor issue So whatever ETA ref, it is fine as long as the hands fit the mvt and the size of the mvt fits the case. Another question about 2846s: what are their true value in terms of money? Could anybody tell us this? Thanks & Cheers Stephane

Hi All, I was lucky enough to get JustAsGood's 5513 that feature a slow beat eta (not sure I remember which one though). It is indeed a nice difference for a vintage Rolie to see it beat slowly. I still have 3 vintage SDs hosting 2836 @ 28800... I would love to see some of our usual specialists chime in and teach us which one should be sourced. Cheers Stephane

Back to Rolex this thursday:

My reds looks better (joking)

Something weird happens in Brussels...all the watches loose their crystal Must be the so called "2222" syndrom

As Kelster said: do the mods first, forget about the 800$ bracelet and above all ENJOY

Wearing some rubber tonight

b.u.m.p.

I start the week with this one (probably my favourite non Rolex watch so far) I love that varnish on the dial

@ Ken. I would really like to meet you Ken. Reading your story confirm how nice you must be. In french we say "le coeur sur la main, the heart in the palm of the hand"... It's such a shame that few are giving and so many are stealing. Cheers Stephane

Indeed.

My own RWG chronology: - "Oh my god, I have been f*cked on the net! This seems to be a better place for reps." - A gigantic book of knowledge - An addiction - A compulsive hobby - A nice hobby - New virtual friends - New friends And now, where am I at? RWG is an opportunity to mix a passion for timepieces, new horizons, new friends, future friends,

Dear all, I read all your comments and, so far, here is what I would like to add. - We still need to help new members, no doubt about that of course, and I will continue to do so, even if I do not shout it loud I agree that they should rather post their questions than PM several members though, they will gather more information probably. - Language/Cultural barriers: my experience in English is very limited. Having said that one of my bosses is UK native and he would never start a mail without a "Hi Stephane" nor end it without a "best regards, cheers, warm regards, kind regards". As for US natives, I understand the idea to be straight to the point but again I don't remember having received a PM from Jetsons that did not start with "Hello Stephane" even his first PM to me, when I was a total stranger and very fresh newbie (I choose Jetsons to name only one, but all of them did in fact!). I don't think the "Hi and bye" is a pure "old world" habit. - Am I trying to educate other members here? No, it is impossible to do so As for awaiting a "Thank you" in reply to my answer

Dear All, Pug already pointed this issue about PMs from members who don't even search prior to ask an information to be delivered to them on a silver plate. That upsets me in a certain way, but I usually reply in a friendly manner. What really p*ss me off is some guys shooting very impolite PMs! The PM here under is the kind of PM I am getting too often these days and I decided not to reply too anymore. No "Hello, hope you're doing fine today ", not even a "Hi", no "I am a new member here

For the first time in my life I dropped a watch on the floor My Panerai 112H...it's a sign She stopped working... Now, back to a trustable one for saturday

For a change, since this friday morning

Capice: if you ever come to Brussels again, pls take some time to teach me the art of taking pictures... Sorry for not commenting the watch, I'm an absolute idiot with Fiddys.

Wow, congrats Mickey. Now I might want to put my Sub on my wrist again. Yours is fantastic. Cheers Stephane

Oh no Andy, I got it a year ago (8/03/2007)

Thanks Laz! It's even a bigger secret than MM !!! I'd love to say but as the guy works in Geneva ... Today a little tribute: @Ajoesmith for this great Speedy I bought from him (frozen subdial at six) @Pug for one of my favourite photo (in the back ground)

I love it If only I could find a good rep of one of these variations! Ah, that one is missing in my logical gen Rolex quest...probably one day. Would be even better maybe Great idea Anton, I can't see why we wouldn't be allowed to buy gens after a while! It's great pleasure to see them here So here are mines and the wife/daughter/son ones The girls My son and my sons future My very very long travel to these ones

Well after some brand changes lately, back to Rolex today. My Super SeaDweller

Congrats for that Stilty. I'd love to have a bunch of gen bracelets for my vintage Rolex... But, hey, the prices are so insane for these pieces of metal Thanks for sharing. Cheers Stephane

Ok. I'll try with new separate accounts and set up different logins tomorrow. Btw...posting from my iPhone! Thanks Pug
