WOW Thanks a lot for this information.

I just ordered a T48 crown and stem for my 112, I was wondering if someone with experience in this would be interested in posting a tutorial with a list of tools, similar to the tutorials on the Rolex page. I'm sure it's a simple procedure, but I'd hate to attempt this and screw up my watch without some guidance. If it's already listed deep in the archive maybe it could be made a sticky. Thanks in advance.

Rehaut, visible crown engraving, bad pearl, etc. http://cgi.ebay.com/USED-MENS-ROLEX-SEA-DW...1QQcmdZViewItem

Excellent, here's my A series that I bought July 1.

Very ...Very well said. We are truly within the minority of the minority of watch aficiandos. I hate the term WIS. It will be interesting to watch how this plays out. Since having just bought a used GEN SD I've become a little miffed at how good the reps are, and I STARTED WITH REPS so imagine how a regular gen owner must feel.

The pearl looks too small and maybe just the angle of the light but the date wheel seems to be a bit deep. And something about the rehaut, but it could be the lighting.

A post by a new user on the Rolex Forum on TZ, is it a SSD Replica? Honestly the SSD is such a good replica that it's hard for me to tell fake from GEN, but somehow immediately I sensed this was fake. What do you all think? http://forums.timezone.com/index.php?t=msg...373#msg_3908036

Best of both worlds

MilGross is not such a nice watch GEN or REP. If they took away the second hand, and made the case 44mm, now that would be something - similar to a PAM. So nevermind.

When you really love a particular watch the GEN becomes the only solution. I love this REP community and the topics of conversation, I find are by far more in-depth than the GEN forums, but I had to get the GEN SD. I would love to do a side-by-side comparison, I bet there's only a 20% difference between them. But like my wife who said at the time when we got married and were previously living together, "I just feel legitimate now". It's kinda the same for those special watches. However, I put on my MBW Great White the other day and it felt and fit really well, and the hands really glowed compared to the GEN due to the plastic dome, GEN GW SD is circa 20K now. I'll probably have to sell it to help pay off the balance on the credit card. I doubt the GEN dial will fit even if you can find one. Honestly try not to stare at it with a loupe. Even with the GEN, nothing is perfect. Good luck.

What's a splitter? A trailer?

I've been reading stories about young bands can't afford gas to do their summer tours. That is a right of passage for every rock/punk musician, to tour across America in an old van playing shitty shows and sleeping on people's floors. Too bad, those were some good days. I think horses may come back as a means of transportation. And of course somebody needs to clean up after them, so there will be some new jobs created for you guys.

I find one thing that stops me from buying a lot of watches is that I ask myself, "am I going to be happy with this watch in a year?" To be honest that Oris don't look like a keeper to me. An impulse buy may end up as a resell. What watch do you REALLY want regardless of the cash? Might be worth saving up a little more money and be satisfied in the long-term. This is coming from someone who is expecting a 2000 A Series Seadweller in the mail tomorrow, taking the day off to meet the mailman.

The watch needs a name I propose that you put your screen name SSurfer or SSURFER as the brand and P A R T Y as the model or something. It looks too blank without a name. I was thinking that SMITH would be a good name for a watch brand. ???
