  1. I use Coach cleaner and moisturizer treatment on all my soft goods. Follow the directions and finish with a horsehair brush. I also alternate my shoes everyday or every other day. Also, I keep them in shoe trees.

  2. It seems every time I see my father I'm wearing a new watch. He can't understand why I collect watches and why I would want the wieght and size on my wrist all day. He's been wearing a quartz sieko watch since I can remember. He loves cars and just purchased a new Audi A8L. I thought the love for cars and watches go hand and hand. I can't have my father pimping a A8 and rocking a sieko. So I would like to purchase him a nice automatic rep in the 39-41mm range. It would also have to be fairly light (wieght). Any suggestions?

  3. I had a RD but sold it several months ago. The watch is really nice but the crown and pushers are alot smaller than the gen. The more you look at the watch it becomes clear that they look out of proportion. The sub dial spacing is off too. I would agree that the strap is plasticy, it needs to be upgraded. The depolyment is really nice though. Somone here on the forum sourced a site where you can buy the rubber strap, I don't have the site but you can use the search and find it again. If you do get it, double AR from chief is a must! This watch is screaming for AR. Overall I think its a great rep for the price. I may repurchase in the future and mod it out. Here are some pics. :D

    My rep (the width of the case seems to be a bit larger)

    The case back it beautiful. A great conversational piece.

  4. Over the weekend I took some pics of the watch that led me to this great place. Now I would like to share with you the watch that started me collecting. About six years ago I purchased a gen Frederique Constant Heartbeat and I have been hooked ever since. I sent the watch out to Zig to get the dial relumed and had the crystal double AR'd by Chief. Once again I would like these two for their services. Here are some pics enjoy! :D

    I have to upgrade my digital 4mp does not do justice to these watches.

    I have to start reading up on Pugs tutorials.

    @ Zig my apologies I can't get the lume shots right.

  5. I have been a member of this forum for a little over a year now and I just want to say I LOVE this place! The watch that brought me here was the Louie V. So back in January I decided to give the watch a little TLC. I sent out the watch to Zig for SL and while it was out got the crystal double AR'd by Chief. I just want to thank Zig and Chief for making the rep world a better place. If any one has some gen pics of the watch would you kindly post them or email them to me. The only time I have ever seen the gen was on the Official LV site. Well here are the pics enjoy :D !
