  1. Maybe Mark's version of the HBB black magic with AR & Ceramic bezel will be next on Silix (jay's) website... That would be great!
  2. I have degrees in French Linguistics and International Relations. I'm studying for the United States Foreign Service Officer Exam. For the last 2.5 years I've been working as an English and French professor/translator here in Madrid, Spain and before in Perugia, Italy. I also work (on the side) as a tour manager coordinating groups of American High School kids coming over to europe for 1-2week educational tours. (Basically they pay me to travel around europe with groups of americans). Not a hot-shot like most of you.. but i'm on my way :-)
  3. Try the mall... Is there a mall in jackson, ms? haha.. j.k.. really
  4. Narikaa.. you must live far away from Lanikai i'm assuming... or you have "killer instinct" if he comes your way.. What if he has a pound of brawn and you only have 1/8ounce of killer instinct? who wins then?
  5. yeah.. but i don't have 'tecs' I got some 'tex'-mex sauce in the fridge.. but that won't help me against those arm canons...
  6. Lanikai... WEAK! You need to get to the gym and pump some iron.. you're arms are really small! hahaha.. j.k.... please don't ever take that personally and beat the living crap out of me....
  7. Yes it is the same watch.. but i don't like that Mark has a picture of a S/S HBB as the main picture.. then below that he has the close-up pictures of a different watch! Can someone confirm that there are Black chrono-pushers available on the gen!???????
  8. So Vric.. the watch is "all black"?? i thought the gen had stainless steel pushers and not pvd coated.....?
  9. pvd coated caseback is more like gen.. but i think that the chrono pushers are wrong..... they should be stainless steel with rubber... not black pvd-coated
  10. Check this out guys. From a seller named Torobravo.. On another forum i'm apart of (www.replik.as), the admin named Lacenta sells for this same watch even cheaper than this price (345euro!!), all the spaniards on www.replik.as seem to think very highly of Lacenta.. and ESPECIALLY his prices....... Anyone here have any direct experience with either of them? The watch looks to be great.. except that the chrono pushers are PVD coated black instead of the natural stainless steel color that I've always seen on the Black Magic.. Does anyone know if Hublot makes gen black magics with black chrono pushers? http://www.repgeek.com/showthread.php?t=18123
  11. talk about starting out nice..... You went for the gusto with all those "super"(-ish)reps and getting them all modded on top of it! You really know how to start out right! Welcome by the way!
  12. Rod, link isn't working...
  13. These photos are soo good that I had to share them with some friends at the spanish forum www.replik.as. Hope you don't mind Pug! you got full credit of course!
  14. I'll start: The SOSF hasn't been warn in like a month at least! time to break it out along with the rubik's cube. Can't wait for work in the morning! of course the wrist shot:
  15. I'm from the Fayette area.. but living in Madrid. Since i've moved to europe my mom sold our old house in Fayette and now is living in Decatur, so now i guess i'd say i'm just from ATLanta. WELCOME!
  16. Considering you didn't describe anything he was wearing besides it NOT being a suit.. i'm not sure if I'm able to make a correct assesment... so you're saying.. to wear a panerai you 've got to wear a suit and can't have a bag? I wear my panerai everywhere and it's plenty believable here in madrid even when i'm in my weekend clothes. (i'm 20 something years old also)...
  17. my question is: Are brushed Ceramic bezels even available on any of our reps? It seems like all of the ceramic bezels I see around here are all Polished....
  18. here's mine. Only take put it on when I dress up. It's weird how tastes change. When I first got into reps this is the watch that got me started.. Now it gets the least wrist time of all my reps. It's definitely a keeper though.. and ohh soo smooooth
  19. my fav.. getting a new case and cyrstal next week shipped to Jakub for AR.. it'll look NEW!
  20. First and foremost.. .WELCOME! I'm sure you'll find this website a great resource in your quest to the ulitmate REP! Secondly, in addressing all of your questions.. it would be most advantageous of you to use the search feature in the right hand corner of your screen. All of the points you inquired about have been discussed a great deal about the past. Your answers lie in your dedication to reading what's already here!... p.s. never ask again.. "who has the best sub?" .. after some research you'll see why this question annoys most...
  21. oops mistake edited/moved
  22. way to be innovative dakku! Never thought about taking off the black paint in on the clasp. I kinda like the way it gives the watch some contrast... but maybe for the sake of rep-accuracy i'll remove it with some nail polish remover like you did yourself!
  23. Hello, my fellow enthusiasts. I'm wondering if any of you know how I could get in contact with chieftang about an AR job i'm interested in. Unfortunately his PM box is full or disabled so i have no way to reach him. if you read this chief, my email is ryancturner@gmail.com. Thanks alot! -ryan
  24. I've got a black one from silix and a white one from Andrew. both are great!
  25. Don't know if you guys have seen "SUPER TROOPERS"... but it happens to be one of my favorite comedies. Towards the end of the movie Officer Foster (played by Paul Soter) is wearing a Bell & Ross Type Marine Black while waiting in the squad car for Ursula.
