Hok

Hello, EL has this beauty, looks really really good to me, classy, but not too much http://s12.photobucket.com/albums/a210/sun.../JLC%20GALLERY/ solid back is a winner, too. what do you say? maybe someone has pics of the gen...

" It has Black face and Black beizel which is calibrated at 60 clicks. " andrew lists the same one if youre still interested. maybe his version is less expensive

yep, a quick review would be nice. i think its a nice stealthy one.

looks like a fantasy watch to me

reminds me of this story: James Jamerson's "Funk Machine" Jamerson was a big player in the session world. Between 1963-68, he played on a great deal of hit singles by Motown's finest, including Marvin Gaye, The Jackson Five, Stevie Wonder, The Isley Brothers, Diana Ross and the Supremes, Martha and the Vandellas, the Four Tops and Jimmy Ruffin. His credits include My Girl, I Heard It Through The Grapevine, Where Did Our Love Go, For Once In My Life, Dancing In The Streets, Standing In The Shadows Of Love, You Can't Hurry Love, My Cherie Amour, The Tracks Of My Tears, Ain't No Mountain High Enough, Please Mr. Postman, Stop! In The Name Of Love, What Becomes Of The Broken Hearted, Reach Out...I'll Be There and I Want You Back . His instrument of choice throughout his career was a 1962 Fender® P-Bass® with a sunburst finish. On the heel of the bass's neck, Jamerson had carved the word "funk" into the wood, and the guitar that produced more hits than any other in history was officially dubbed the "Funk Machine." To most other musicians, that bass was unplayable. Jamerson kept his action very high, and his neck was bowed due to lack of truss rod maintenance. He rarely cleaned his guitar, and he never cleaned the fretboard. To Jamerson, the sweat and dirt on the bass was the secret of his sound, the essence of the funk. His nickname among his friend was "The Hook" because of his distinct and inimitable two-fingered playing style. Just days before Jamerson died in 1983, the Funk Machine was stolen from his house. To this day, it still has not resurfaced. There are stories of bassists who stumble across a '62 P-Bass in pawn shops who then take them home and unscrew the neck plate, hoping to find the word "funk." It's become a legend - the holy grail of all basses.

azimuth bombardier? used it should hit your price spot. also takea look look at andrews rep http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showto...5&hl=bombardier

right you are, i never was a fan of those manly divers

date-window shape too. but all these are minor. i think the cross is the only obvious thing, it's ugly as [censored]. i wonder why they use it on some gens... bracelet looks really fine to me, too.

*cough* http://www.silix-prime.com/product.asp?id=1287 *cough* date window is also better on this one

well 42mm isnt small. but it is quite thin... the silix prime version with diamond bezel is a killer too. correct size and the other dial, where only the VC automatic print is not "elevated" enough (cross and date window correct). and the diamonds, of course, are not everyones taste. the one who could source fitting gen / exact dials would probably get suffocated by orders. but AFAIK, ordering such parts at VC is a even harder than getting soup

... like asking your mum to clean up your hard disk. hope you got another mom cause you don't want to deal again with the old one

you mean the cross? please, tell!

ok, whats wrong with this one? http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewIt...mMakeTrack=true EDIT: ah, it was listed a few hours before i found it... well, i 'm probably gettin a bit paranoid around here.

wow, the new version with correct size is really nice. all you have to do now is conduct a full-scale raid on a VC high security spare part depot in order to get a gen dial

hello, i think many people will recognize a breitling navytimer. breitling advertises a lot (at least here in austria) and the navitimer is in my eyes one of the most widely known "luxury" watch models. at least in europe... minor issues, of course, are no problem as long as you don't hand it over... and even then it takes a watch collector. on the PT version there's still the mistake. barbarians... or geeks. maybe it is 13375p33ch

ah sorry, no rolex afficionado i am... remembered having read something about modified el primeros used in daytonas, and the subdial placement on this one led me to this conclusion.

or in Europe? well, being a student, i practically sleep on the floor, so no problems like this, anyway.

i think the el primero daytonas are really really sweet, but all gold? well, not my cup of tea

well probably hard to understand for non-germans: goebbels: notorious german Propaganda Minister during WWII berlichingen: very famously related to the first quote in german literature telling someone to "lick my ass"

nice! sorry for the teutonic, but relating, and one of my favorite jokes, hope some can enjoy. Goebbels und Götz von Berlichingen treffen sich im Jenseits. Die beiden stellen sich einander vor: -"Götz von Berlichingen, der Ritter mit der eisernen Faust." -"Joseph Goebbels, der Mann mit der feurigen Zunge." -"Trotzdem!"

wow, this baby will be a stunner! wonder what the OEM IWC decorated movement would cost

a review of the iwc alarm: http://www.timezone.com/library/tlines/tlines0010

just as ubi, a vintage seamaster 300, most of the gens are frankenwatches anyway

im wondering... this doesn't look like 42mm, does it?. maybe he wears a rep
