  1. on the floor outside a shopping area? what does that mean? You found a new watch laying on the ground!?? you should probably take that off of ebay and verify it here on the board to make sure it is indeed genuine. If it turns out to be gen then go ahead and sell it on the bay but i would use this forum as a place to get opinions on its authenticity. It is against ebay policy to allow auctions of counterfeit items (fake). Sorry to bust your bubble saber.. A better place to sell that would be here on the board.. there's no problem selling it here if its a rep. But ebay is probably not the place(if you have no authenticity papers or receipt).
  2. This one will only be available in the shown black dial. They're still not sure when it'll be released (big surprise) but Andrew said it would be sometime "soon"... Interesting piece..
  3. Haven't heard a lot of talk on here about this particular model but Andrew told me that it will soon be coming out.. also available with steel bracelet: Not my cup of tea at all.. but maybe some of you chunky lovers will get a kick out of it! (then again who knows.. my taste may change!)
  4. good advice Lani.. My first one will always be with me! depsite me never wearing it! Post some pics.. not an expert on movement.. but since bytor's review on the seagull i'm hopeful i continue to recieve ETA's in the future! I've been lucky thus far! Wear it with class
  5. P.s. Also Try Celini's! i think it's on 5th or near Madison.. not sure though
  6. Pretty sure there's a chopard shop, .. you might also wanna check out cartier and the Audemar's boutique
  7. Thanks for that heads up... I just bought a watch from a member here.. cant imagine the feeling of getting ripped off by another board member. My heart goes out to those he nabbed
  8. is that how it works? I guess platinum doesn't sound so bad
  9. Today I looked on the right hand panel of the site... and saw my name probably for the first and last time as a top poster of the day! couldn't believe it.. Just thought i'd gloat a little! (move over Lani and Red.... )
  10. What exactly do you have against south Africa Ubi????? huh!!???? haha. j.k. Report this guy! i can't believe he'd put up a sale with only one crappy picture of his $7,000 item!
  11. The least you could do is send all 23,000 of us a real copy in the mail! i mean jeez, what a cheap work-around! haha j.k. Really awesome mag. Is it only available in Azzzia?
  12. Ya know the blue plastic wrap that covers are watches like a plague infested tree when we get our reps and you need almost a blow torch to get it off....? I wanna do some polisihing on my polished/brushed yachtie and want to target the areas so i don't end up polishing any parts of the brushed steel.. any ideas. the blue plast crud is the only thing i can think of that would possibly function. I've tried various tapes for creating outlines.. abut it always tends to come up while using capecod...
  13. Send it off to VAC or another modder.. nothing that can't be fixed. I know it sounds like your watch is done.. but most of those problems have a simple fix. Your movement probably needs a service first and foremost.. (which will take care of your crown tube issue probably as well). Then you'll need your crystal pressed properly and your gaskets and seals checked. Then it should be good as new. Francisco is doing 3 watches here in spain that i have. He's generally very reasonable and he generally won't charge over 65euros for a full service. .. although it always depends on what you want done and if any replacement is necessary.. If you were in europe i'm sure he could fix it no problem
  14. I gif you goo price!! Tuk tuk suh!? where you go suh!?? Enjoy it! if you have anytime hop the border to cambodia. Was there for 3 weeks on my honeymoon in august.. absolutely amazing! At Ta Prohm temple
  15. yeah.. i agree.. the quickest 1,000 posts i've ever seen in my life.. simply inexplicable.!!
  16. I put one in for Lani's top 10.. and then a special request for lani's ENTIRE collection in one shot. That'd be amazing.
  17. My sosf asian I had for 2 years and it was still in perfect condition the day i sold it 2 months ago. But then again, I didn't wear the watch aas often as you wore your sub, but I still clean and wipe my watches at least once or twice a week. With good care the watch can last forever. Have you ever had your watch serviced? What movement do you have? If the crystal fell out that sounds kinda strange. Did you simply pop the crystal back in yourself using hands? A crystal press would be needed to seat it perfectly and securely to the case again.
  18. Wow.. mrs. ubi is gonna be one happy woman!
  19. Sorry to bring this back to life.. but I had to comment... this strap is pretty incredible.. never seen one like it before in my life... I really like it although i could never pull it off. possibly custom... No idea where one can be found whooper. (if you read this). Try emailing or calling chopard to see if it's something they make. better yet go to a chopard store. they would surely know. otherwise.. i don't think any dealers have this strap
  20. hahahahaha. Great image
  21. delete ??

    Wow

    Obviously we already know that the guy in the AD DID NOT KNOW it was a rep. people in AD's often have no idea about the quality of reps. They're often just hired help. Now specialty and vintage shops are another story. Those guys have to be on point, because their business is buying and selling exclusive models working with new, used and vintage models..
  23. Incredible news.. wow
  24. yes the width is 22mm/20mm (22mm at the lugs.. and 20mm at the bracelet end)
