  1. it's nice to have hi resolution images of our watches. thanks!
  2. i was just about to start a new topic about the "pawn stars" show when i did a search and found this topic. what a great show! i just discovered it the other night and have set my dvr to record all the past episodes. we all appreciate the hunt and a good story behind an item and this show delivers. here's a clip from youtube which includes a stolen rolex watch ... enjoy!
  3. i would ditch the zero (219) and get with a hero (312).
  4. i got mine (swiss version) from king. now with that being said, some of the failed ones may have come from her too? i would ask her if she's had any returns before taking the plunge. her english isn't perfect so please take that into consideration as well. good luck!
  5. i haven't had any issues with mine yet. you can't see me, but i'm knocking on wood.
  6. wow. big congratulations! looks like we've got our go to guy for comparisons! wear it well my friend ... it truly is a one of a kind watch.
  7. they're everywhere buddy, just pick one. just remember, what happens in vegas stays in vegas. except for herpes ... that [censored]'ll come back with you.
  8. thanks nanuq. to be honest, i've always been a ccm guy ... just a matter of preference i guess. i was lucky enough during my career that ccm offered to make custom skates for me. the custom ones are lighter, more durable and sized in 1/4's instead of 1/2's. all the best.
  9. congrats gran! i played my last year of pro hockey in las vegas. i suggest searching in advance for concerts etc. there is something big happening pretty much every weekend. have fun!
  10. i recently bought a 45mm tw steel with black lume (also available in 50mm). it has a u-boat look and feel to it and is the stealthiest watch i've ever seen. in fact, it's a little hard to tell the time. lol. but the best part is, you can buy this gen for the price of a rep! i purchased mine from the certified watch store which has the lowest price online. it took a couple of weeks to arrive because it wasn't in stock, but the customer service was excellent. here are a couple of pictures ...
  11. happy father's day gents. i spent the day with my two boys, now my wife has taken the kids to gramma's and i have the house to myself. perfect time for rwg!
  12. very cool. thanks for taking the time to put it on! i understand the clasp problem ... mine is the same. all the best.
  13. that looks awesome rocky! i've been considering purchasing the old style gen bracelet as well. tell me something ... does this bracelet taper from 24mm to 20mm? if so, could you put your rep clasp on it to get the latest gen look? thanks in advance.
  14. it's still available in canada and the u.s.
  15. lol. emotional day. glad it turned out ok for you!
  16. yes, you did confuse me. lol. i've never heard mention of the subdial issue before. anyway, i liked the white dialed rubberclad enough to have it sent off to The Zigmeister. nothing could be done about the dark subdials, but that never really bothered me. rob painted the silver date surround black, serviced the movement, did a total relums and installed a chief ar crystal. the watch should be awesome but i don't have it in myt posession yet. it's at my parents place in canada and i will get it (along with some other watches) when either i go up or they come down for a visit. looking forward to getting everything and sharing some pictures with you all. talk to ys soon! i think you're right sander. i was told by a gen safari owner that the numbers are black not dark brown. i'm not sure where all that started from?
  17. i've owned both and think the numbers are raised on both the reps and gens. it looks more so on the latest safari because there is no outline around the numbers. and yes, the gen has a silver outline although it doesn't seem to show up in all pictures because of the reflection. i ended up selling mine and going with the white dialed rubberclad. anyway, here are some side by side comparisons of the v1 and v2 to further confuse you ...
