TeeJay, Let's be straight. You and me are not close friends and, pls note it's Froglish I'm speaking, we have completely different point of views which will impeech us to become whatever but two users on a same forum. Your point is always: they lie. It's not like a genuine. Do not buy from Josh, Andrew, Paul, and now Ali...which is ruining the atmosphere of my hobby. Mine: it's close to what i hoped but if I want better, than I should go genuine, and go to Rolex thus. Buy from who ever you want as long as they didn't point a gun on your head, you're free to change you mind. But, when you order and are delivered, pay and stick to your word. Why close the dispute? Because the guy is honnest. He said it was shipped on september 9th, and it was. Because 30 $ is very very cheap for such nice inserts, although not as accurate as Rolex ones. But after buying genuine parts from Rolex I know that they are never the same either. I am never checking a restaurant bill, I always help friends when they have financial problems, ... Mostly, because I hate to speak about money. It's so boaring. The watch I'm wearing right now, I might have paid say 300$. I could sell it for 1.000 to a person who loves it or give it for free to a person I love. Money doesn't matter for me. I have had up and downs man. And since 10 years, I'm really UP to my standarts. I had weeks when I only could afford a kilo of potatoes and weeks I spend in the Oriental Hotel in Bangkok or in a Sorrento 4 star. I'm not sure you get my point, but I will have tried my best to make it as clear as you once did with me: leave me in peace. Stephane

Ceramic bezel maybe ?

As everyone seems to love Baume et Mercier right now...remember this one is genuine and for sale

Josh

You're right Freddy. The numbers start aligned and then become more and more miss aligned. Of center on the insert. I'll try to take flat pics so you all can see. Cheers Stephane

Avec plaisir Monsieur Euno. A pleasure to see you back. My warmest regards to you. Cheers Stephane

ByTor, on the BK one the numbers are quite nicely aligned though. Is this a Ali one ? Cheers Stephane

Thanks Pix. But as we say: "Mieux vaut seul que mal accompagn

Hi Guys, As this is my watch let me say: I bought it in december 2006 from Andrew and he stated New Asian 7750 28800... Cheers Stephane

Ok Guys. I want to publicly apologize doubting about Faisal Ali. The two inserts arrived today, october 10th. The post stamp of US First Class Mail indicates it has been posted on september 9th. Unless it's a rep US Post sticker of course. So, I left the inserts in the trunk of my car and have no will to exit my house now but from my first inspection it seems that the numbers are not better aligned than on the one delivered on the watch itself. I'll shoot some pictures soon. Cheers Stephane PS: of course, the dispute will be closed in minutes...

Well, unless the "guy" like you say, is a modder him self, I can't see how he is going to do whatever. I was maybe unclear, must be my froglish, but of course any swap of parts for genuine needs work. On my Tribalized 16610, it needed heavy work, but is is done My 1680 required a lot of work to Watcher, believe me So to rephrase: yes MBW can take gen parts, depending on models with more or less work (Tropic is impossible on 16610 indeed). Sorry if I confused anybody here, it was certainly not my intention...

Hi All, I'll start this one with a long time not worn watch Cheers Stephane and my ex-wife's wrist (she still have her jewels!)

Great decision Laz If you can get another case back like yours for me, let me know. I want one. Cheers Stephane

I'm not sure for the dial. But it will take crown/tube, tropic, inserts,....Go for it but be wise. A modded one can cost from 500 to 1.000

Seems so

Hi V, Although some members keep sending me PMs calling me an expert , I'm not. We have some great GMT II threads and we have BT which would make a better comment on yours than I could. Technically, the cyclop is too right for sure but, hey, it's not such a big deal again when on the wrist. Now, back to how it looks on your wrist: honestly, I'm a little disturbed to see a Rolie on a Pam wrist I would say that a Daytona (white face) is the best choice to go for Maybe I need more time to get used to the GMT II for you as I sincerely feel it's more a man's watch. Cheers Stephane

Very good point indeed.

Let me guess: you are joking right ? Does anybody owns a MBK ? Everyone does, as MBK and MBW are the same but the trendy name is now MBK. Untill it becomes TTK of course. Who has the best TTK Sub ? MBK !

Well, I'm sorry, I have nothing to sell here neither I have to argue about! But I'm wearing a watch today. And, what a surprise, that IWC Ingy SS that must have been the last in my top 30 Oh, and these ugly pics are old; since then it has a Lello DW

Freddy sorry, but I prefer the look of Laz one (look). As plain as possible .... Great watche though

Selling them all? Dear all, I feel a little bad about having opened this thread a while ago. My intentions were nice but the math is showing I should close the thread now. So, here is what I was up to: - I fell in love with a splendid REP that was around 2K. - I choose to get that one instead of several unworn beauties. But, while doing the math

Sounds sexy Laz...make sure to keep us posted

He would be very surprised for sure. But, BT, if I do that wouldn't it hurt RWG ? I mean I only can do this by sending him an eBay internal message ... Cheers Stephane

Guys, Do you mind if I put everybody back on the main point? I was only asking for experiences with this "particular" seller. If I'm loosing money, I will loose 30$ (who cares) This is my first experience in "rep inserts". All my other ones are gen. So, what I see here is: it's obvious that Ali isn't the best seller for inserts. But, at the end of the day, these situations are part of our games, aren't they? Cheers Stephane
