  2. correct.. apparently there's no decent version available right now...
  3. +1... No need to prove anything to anyone.. especially if the best watch they had was a 1,000usd tissot...
  4. Check out By-tor's review of omega watches: Triplehd also did a review of his highly modded SMP...
  5. haha.. Where are you from in korea? I worked in Incheon for 2 months in 2008. Great place. 안녕하세요! p.s. I really miss CASS beer! I have 5 bottles of soju in my freezer though!
  6. I just bought too more.. That's a total of 8 tix which equals 40usd.. Since platinum costs 70usd.. and i'm already a supporter.. the 40usd in tix should cover the difference right? Let me know if i need to contribute more! thanks "R" You da man bruh p.s.. if you call me R should I call you the same thing or just say RA instead to differentiate myself from you?

  8. So wait.. I've bought 6 already.. and i'm already a supporter.. so don't i only need 40usd worth of tix to get the upgrade to platinum? Buying 2 more now
  9. Welcome to the board Jalalinator. You picked a nice watch and a really popular dealer. I doubt the watch will be in your hands by the 28th.... but maybe sometime beginning of march. In anycase, i'll also keep my fingers crossed for you! But in all honesty.. The wait is going to kill you!
  10. hmm.. maybe better you didn't even tell that story here... This post will do one of two things.. blow up.. or stay dead, depending on when the last post like this to get flamed was.. it could do either one.. These are the kind of posts that start flame wars on the board....
  11. birth
  12. new 42mm rep version is going to be released soon.. maybe that will be one of the fixes! Right now the only decent version that exists is the Narikaa version ever since the 4th gen stock dried up quick! Hopefully the new version (will come out as v5 i suppose) will solve a lot of the previous versions' problems!
  13. Ok, I misread before. I just looked it up. In all honesty it APPEARS like the mini fiddy could use the same crystal and a similar case. To be 100% sure maybe you could find someone who has a spare mineral crystal from a mini-fiddy to take caliper measurements. We could then compare those measurements to the measurements of the pam253 crystals that paulw is willing to loan for the project. If they turn out to be the same crystal then obviously it will work well with for mini-fiddys as well. If you can find the measurements or a spare crystal, we can confirm its size in relation to the project model. Lemme know if you find out. This is what i found.. confirm this as what you're talking about.. -pLai
  14. Thanks alot osrep. Yes, this is the watch that francisco photographed in his "tutorial". He's a class act and does it all for the love of watchmaking. You'll see more of this baby. I'm planning on getting a better camera and starting to work with photoshop this year.. so the photos should only get better! thanks again
  15. OOPS.. i should eat my words... i thought it was fairly simple.. i thought i'd seen a tutorial on here a while back. secondly i'm pretty dumb*** for not noticing that dluddy had listed the part numbers before i responded... duhhh I know there's a tutorial around here. Maybe you should order the parts and see if you can get them installed by a watchmaker/repair shop in your area. If zigg says something.. it's better to shut up and listen.. My mouth is shut on this thread!
  16. wordup! I just did it too... I'm goin platinum baby! p.s. Lani.. that should be a total of 6 tix for me.

  18. i guess we can only wait and see how many versions will be coming out.. haha
  19. waverunner
  20. was that bird from Ghaungzhou?
  21. I swear Lani's skyland blacksteel has cheif's AR.. How'd they get around that obstacle!??
  22. Don't think it is.. but it's a GREAT PLACE FOR GENS!!! hhaha.. Have fun while you're there. I'm honestly not sure if there's any places to go, but hopefully someone else with the dubai experience (like EXPER) can chime in here and tell you the hot spots if they exist!
  23. As some of you might know Obtaining the perfect pam253 is one of my goals for 2010. Our dear friend Francisco (here in spain) has been working on a few of my beloveds.. one of which was my pam 253 V3. He serviced the movement and painted the chrono second hand a very brilliant shade of blue. When I opened the package i almost peed my pants from excitement. It looks GREAT! VERY VERY CLOSE to GEN . Overall I'm VERY happy with the results and couldn't have asked for anyone better to mod my watch. THANK YOU FRANCISCO! (drinks on me next time i'm in valencia!) I'll let the pictures speak for themselves... So here's the before: Gen Pic Francisco worked from: And currently: destrapped on the dining table rubber strap pics On GEN carbon fiber: strap thanks to SWDIVAD: Changing straps out... (jeopardy music playing..) Toscana Carbon Fiber with blue stitching: (thanks for the inspiration from your V2 Lani... I tried to be different, but in the end.. this just looked too good)!! Over the balcony... don't worry i won't drop it Pocket peeking.... last one I promise: So that's it. For now it's gonna stay a Lani copycat and stay on the Toscana strap. I realize the color's not perfect to GEN but for not being able to have a gen watch next to him Francisco nailed it in my opinion. This issue was one of the most biggest for me on this V3 rep and it's finally fixed! I'm ok with the glaring CG flaw but the next move will be the sapphire crystal if we can get them fabricated! Thanks for lookin guys! Comments are always welcome! Your happy board member, pLai P.S. sorry about the crappy title, I wanted to change it but I guess it's too late. Oh well!
  24. Awesome work! Really nice.. This 202 really pops! p.s. You wouldn't have any relation to DEEBO would you!!????
  25. This has to be possible. I know that Lani's blacksteel has cheif's coating.. He would've had to remove the bezel to get the crystal out of the watch.. it's definitely possible!
