  1. Thanks for posting Jojo...don't stop @Torresp: oh my god !!! What stunning pieces. That GW! Well, I'm jalous.
  2. I got mine from Precious Time UK. That was in feb 2007 though. It must be an old batch thus.
  3. I'm not sure the photo will help, but my dial is black. The dial of this UPO seems very different from yours though. Numbers are specially different in my opinion or is it just me?
  4. A true beauty D. Viva the crown and tube Keep posting your wonderfull photos By-Tor. The watch might be on top of my list soon @Cats and B16...nice to see you guys Today, it's 3717 but I guess it won't last untill next year I wouldn't mind to wear the PO too Kind regards to all, Stephane
  5. The PO is the watch I will consider for a gen, as the Ingy, once I'm done with Rolex. That could take years though You say "don't take money in consideration!" I say "get a gen!" And why not get it on the pre-owned market because saving some cash is always nice I have a nice REP PO with double AR, genuine crown and tube. It is a fantastic watch that I wear very often. But...it's not the real deal And I will NOT add a gen dial and bezel. How many of our reps are running for years without any problem? Recently I lost a crown (gen crown btw). As you say, I cannot enter an AD and say "fix it". And what if no cool modder of our community can fix it? A franken is a franken. It has some value in our community but nowhere else. Take the 6.5K 1655 which some guy is trying to sell for months now...there is zero chance it would be sold ever unless a super new comer believes it's a 100% gen watch not knowing it is a 90% gen parts and a fake case . Our hobby is about building reasonably priced franken. Not thousand dollars ones.

  6. Splendid result indeed Andy. It is here now. Congrats to Ken and friends. It was a real pain to make it happen after all the troubles Ken faced. One community - one word!
  7. Great photos Lani I forgot the one and only RepAustria GMT Master II Correct hand stack with modified 2836-2 and some "special gears". Gen dial, gen insert, very good bracelet (allthough not gen) ....plus a perfect gen crown
  8. There are more friends with this one Brothers in DW And all Tribalised
  9. If you need an information, simply ask Alligoat
  10. The ones I still owe The 1680 Couple: Lots of gen parts (Crystal, tube/crown, ...) And of course a lot of work by MM. The 1665 Trilogy: Gen crystals, including a super dome. Crowns/tube, Vietnam Bezel,... Fantastic case backs. JustAsGood's 5513 Modded by Kurt, and NDT dial remoded by MM
  11. @Dluddy: great looking watch Mine should be ready soon finaly In the meantime, back to another tool watch
  12. Thanks M. for this thread. I've met tons of people liking watches and wanting to buy a "premium one" But I discovered pretty fast that their premium was a Lotus or Rodania. (Typical advertised brands on TV at Xmas). Most of the time, when I start to talk about "our hobby" I see a smile on their face. They think "hey interresting". But, very quickly, I have to skip to another topic as nobody really want to hear more, or simply has nothing to share on the subject. It is a very frustrating hobby in fact Only the closest friends of this community can share our passion. But one thing is very positive: I made new friends out of this community and we're not only talking about watches! Cheers Stephane
  13. Boxing ... Need a tool for that. Specially when you can't see anything anymore... A Kruzer/Ziggy 196 is the answer
  14. And when do I see you in Brussels Yes TT, you become very sentimental Happy holidays to you and yours. Sincerely Stephane
  15. Ok, well mine is french speaking so I guess it's what I thought. Anyway, I downloaded and installed from cydia.iclarified.com the Volume booster 2.1.0 (toghether with the spell checker disable tool). It doesn't really boost the sound at all. So I guess I will have to go back to Nokia when my ears will be even worse.
  16. Cool. Could you tell us what has been modded ?
  17. I did. I'll have a look in Cydia. Thanks Tribal. Any name to look for or is it just VolumeBoost ? BTW: I'm in 2.1 EDIT: Here is what I found and installed http://cydia.iclarified.com/ But that doesn't seem to help though...
  18. +1 We will never be experts on our own Too many variations in Rolex watches
  19. I'm using the iPhone default regular phone "old phone" but can't hear it. Sorry but was is SoundCheck? Is it the general setting volume? If so, it's at the maximum...
  20. Hi all, The tiltle says it all. Sorry to bug you but I have been looking everywhere for an app that could boost the volumes on an iPhone. Even if I do boost it in Audition, the phone puts it back to a low level. After 30 years of music in the ears via headphones, I'm really earing impared Cheers and thanks for your help Stephane
  21. Superb photos. I'm jealous while still trying to use my Nikon D60 correctly
  22. Very generous idea but totaly impossible to do.
