  1. I wonder if anyone is going to Rep this one. So what you're saying it, its Not a Swiss Movement then. Dave...
  2. WOW, you "Joined 44 Years, 3 Months and 22 Days" I didn't know Rep's were around back then. Dam, this must be the oldest online forum known! Dave...
  3. As we say here in New England, WICKED PISSA! Translation = I Like It! Dave...
  4. You dug-up a 3 1/2 year old post then post a link to buying custom made shirts! I smell advertising here.
  5. Exactly! Not surprised though. Like I said, I'm still waiting too but not holding my breath either.
  6. Congrats & Happy Anniversary. Dave...
  7. Good luck, but I wouldn't hold my breath. Still waiting for a resolution from our deal back in July! Last August I was sent this "Listen mate, if the [censored] hits the fan and we end up with our fingers burnt i will make a conribution towards your loss of the 1665." As of Today, I still have Not received any resolution! Maybe time for me to leave the 'proper' Feedback! Dave...
  8. Nice one Mike. I've always liked the looks of this model. I don't mind a thick watch either. I once had a nice JSAR and loved that one. Wish I still had it actually. Dave...
  9. For me, I'm just starting to have my Franken 16610 built. To me, its the best Everyday watch yet still looks great in a suit. This will be the most I've spent on a build so far. It will be all gen except the case & movement. I'd love to build a Daytona but just the gen dial, hands & bezel is costly! Good luck in whatever you want / build. Like everyone says, as long as you like it, who cares about everyone else! Dave...
  10. OK, I guess I'll start today's: Still sporting the GMT Master II Dave...
  11. And this is how it starts (for most of us). You get your 1st rep, like it a lot. Then you start doing more-n-more reading about every little flaw on reps. Then you start noticing some of the flaws on yours. So you start moving up the chain. Buy a nicer one from the M2M sales section and sell your 1st rep, Cheap. Then this process continues (sometimes daily). More reading, noticing more flaws that now start to really bug you, Every time you look at the watch. So even though you said you never would, you spend even more on a ‘better’ model. Now you’re moving up and into the “let’s start swapping out a few parts’ mode.” It’s all downhill from here ( or at least for me it is). Now I’m going into the Super Franken mode! My next build will have Gen Dial, hands, insert, date wheel, crystal, crown, tube, gaskets & modified case with a y3135 engine. So even though it may seem like you’ll Never go down this road right now, here is my advice. Start stashing away a little every day now. Trust me, you’re gonna need it! Dave...
  12. I need one of these in my collection! Dam nice timepiece. Dave...
  13. If there's money to be made in repping it, they will. I'd buy one, if the price was right! Dave...
  14. WOW, the 1st 5 posters all have over 8 + years here. I feel like a Freshman in High-School. Young (here) but learning everyday from the Veteran's. Dave....
  15. Still wearing my 16710 but now on bracelet. Dave...
  16. No worries Mike. Like I said, I just hope mine 'looks' 1/2 as good as this build does. Besides the GMT is going to keep me happy for a while. Man I never really liked the Green LV's before, but they are growing on me, Fast! I really like the Green insert with the Black dials the best. Dave...
  17. Not bad looking with the cerachrom bezel. But they should offer it in SS and maybe change the model to the GMT Master III Dave...
  18. Now That is a Sweet Sub! I'm hoping to have one soon that's 1/2 as good as this one. Dave...
  19. Or post it in the For Sale section " Vintage by me to look it's age. It will fool anyone on inspection" Dave...
  20. GMT 16710 for me today! Dave...
  21. Thanks! But no, actually I bought my Ploprof in a M2M sale last year. I love the watch and wear it a lot in my rotation. I have about a 7 1/2 wrist and it looks great. Good luck in your search, you'll love it! Dave...
  22. Very nice build and I Love the Lume-Shot! I'm learning myself (the hard way) builds are Never within the 'planned' budget. Trips back-n-forth for work to be done, happen (plan on a few). But that is part of the Fun isn't it! Dave...
  23. Oh, I'm a Seiko guy too, (here are a few of my oldie) but I don't like busy dials. Dave...
  24. I'm Really liking the looks of this one! If your 'replacement' means this one may be on it's way out, please let me know BTW, here is what's 'hiding' under my sleeves, more sleeves. Dave...
