Well, as said, I sincerely think that in such rich countries nobody should struggle. Money is pissed away by our governements and in each country there are sill homeless people! My gesture is a little gesture to help somebody I "know" rather than somebody I "don't know" ;-) Come on guys...who wants a Cartier Pache

Hi TeeJay, I'm very sorry to hear you're in trouble. Nobody should be short of 150£ and so many are! I have a watch here that isn't exactly the super franken of anybody's dream but quite nice when on the wrist. This is a basic version of Cartier's pacha that I won at a GTG raffle. It comes from Narika. I'm not sure what the value of this watch is but I will send it to the first member who sends 75£ to TeeJay to cover the 150 he needs! After all this watch was a gift to the community and I was the lucky winner so it's time to pass it to somebody who will help out another member of the community! Come on guys and gals, send 75£ to TJ and teh Cartier is yours :-) Cheers Stephane

You are right I have no camera as I'm travelling and the iPhone sucks :-)

Oh, and about various 16610, here is a link to the one I got before I could afford my gen http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/57836-my-collection-of-past-present-watches/

Well, you know Rep/Gen...it's only about what do you like to wear? I have owned quite a lot of 16610 (Rep, modded, franken...) and it make sense to end up with a gen as it is my most desirable watch. So, my nephew likes it very much and the only one left is a gen ! It's a 2000 one, with Swiss dial, so pretty cool as it is a bit different. But in the end, the model is what we like isn't it? A gen is a gen, but it is not that different from a well build rep

I fully agree! My (gen) 16610 is my fav one. But again, as I lend it to my nephew since months now, I really enjoy the bid Deep Sea. I think it's very much like all these guys showing off with their pams ;-) but with a cool brand (Rolex). Jocking....

Dear All, I start this topic because I am very surprised that I do like the Rolex Deep Sea. A while ago, when the first reps of that model were released I bought one. It lasted a week and then I sold it because it felt to big. Lately, one of these was up for sale and, as it was a “NoobFactory” one, I thought I should give it a second try. It’s been two weeks now that I am wearing it every day! Maybe it is because I’m missing my Subs/SeaDweller that are currently out for mods or at my nephew, and that I have been wearing all my other watches for month, but this time, the Rolex Deep Sea I really love it. What is your opinion on this model. Do you like it, own one, which version… Cheers Stephane

Thanks TJ

Got up to 60 watches at a moment ! Like others, when I discovered RWG I couldn't belive what I read and saw and bought every single watch that was matching my taste. Then, year after year I realised that I was only wearing a few watches and that even if the other ones were still nice to look at, wearing them was not an option. So I sold everything includung many modified ones. In the end, I always wanted a Submariner and a JLC: I have both ones, genuine now and they are the one I really wear. The rest of the box contains mainly Rolex (1665,1680,16710 and Exporer II), all reps and all worn. So, no evolution here at all: Rolex is my brand not only in terms of taste but also for the ease of them. Simple to wear and size when I gain or loose weight (lost 10kg lately) I tried almost every possible type of watch but the black dials and the ss bracelet, except to wear with a suit, are my thing and will remain for ever I guess !

I have some cheap stuff myself. I choose to keep them as selling them is not worth the effort because of the value! A TTK Noob, I would put it in frame if I still had one

Great to see you post again BT! I agree about the 16610: unimaginative choice? But what can you do... it's perfect.

+1 Any member of this community should voice such things. Scammers are rarely trying to reach team members Anywya, once again, as a community we are stronger than those fucking people!

Also, bear in mind that the way you act will or won't attract suspicion from both security agents and customs agents... If you look pretty cool, they will probably not even check your shoes but if you're sweating they will put u in an examination room right away No stress...pretend to yourself you are not doing anything bad!

Interresting! I'm watching on my laptop anyway I'm not allowed to share the fever of series By the way, I saw french subtitles for Shameless last seasons ...but that would be a crime!

By the way, any update on misfits? Was S3 the last and the end ?

What the hell...I only saw two seasons and thought it stopped! Thanks mate, downloading s3 - s8 right now! Brilliant Edit to say I really need subtitles here That accent is fantastic but a bit difficulet for non brits!!!

Same here. I asked myself those questions years ago and in the meantime I became a frequent traveller and never ever was questionned about such things. I'm pretty sure it's pure marketing from the Luxury Industry to make believe that customs are strict with replicated items. They have no time to check for such things as their core business is now to capture as many luxury perfume or beauty creams bottles over 100 ml as possible so they can share them among the staff and sell them on the sunday market! In most of the EU, security controls aren't even performed by customs anyway but by private companies.

Sorry to be late one this one! It is a fantastic job indeed and so you guys all know we trust JAG, I can disclose that one of my beloved Rolex is at his place... @K. I can imagine what you meant by still wanting to do some case work @Nanuq: well I understand you didn't want to polish the crystal...I wouldn't want mine polished either but of course mines are not living among bears so they are less damaged !

Love your post mate! ...and ...BIG CONGRATS! PS: Could you have a look at mine please...I'll get the beer from the fridge for you (but I'm not as sexy as your miss probably)!

Tak! Tak Tak Tak! So are you and yours

I wish I had

That was fantastic! Thanks to our hosts & thanks to Swedish Girls for having been so numerous and so georgous

+1 Our daily beater of less than 10 years will become our vintage in 10 years

Great...seing only ? Hmmm I guess it depends....

Oh yes, I'm sure I will. Swedish girls have a great reputation all over the world ah, well, I know it will be boys only at this GTG Or, maybe, you can bring some cute local samples of the so famous "Sewidsh blond"
