  1. ...welcome to the rep game... I doubt that QC pics would have caught that!

    AND, right now the noob factory has other issues then finger prints on movements... well maybe not, they might have these being taken from them, in a nice cozy Chinese police station as to: CRACK DOWN!

  2. Good questions...

    Q1: And if god forbid you did cause a deep scratch or ding... is it a through colour or like RG plated.. a surface treatment?

    A1; My daily beater (not this watch) has no scratch at all... the RG ceramic is that hard. I know. not a real good answer, more just a fact.

    Q2:For example say you rebrushed that lug end... would it stay RG?

    A2; No ideam but I ain't try it!

    P.S. Daily beater pics here: http://www.rwg.cc/topic/148618-rg-ceramic-hbb-on-2012-italia-tour/

  3. Hi there,

    I like gold… yes I do! Maybe some of you know this. Issues of course is, that as a daily beater RG-plating has its limits. I would say daily worn, max. a year! BUT, there is a solution inform of:

    • RG-ceramic

    RG-ceramic is a solution, for RG without any issues of scratching or fading! Like the polished black-ceramic a mirror like finish, long-living and colour true. Specially the mirror finish I love vs. RG-plating, as there are no brushings from the CAD-milling during the watch making.

    My daily beater as here: http://www.repgeek.c...ad.php?t=177204 is the proof. Bad luck is that no other watches offer this. Of course there is RG-DLC, as used on some AP models.

    And the colour vs. gen? It is a little off, but the finish is so fantastic, that you forget this issue…

    Here some pics to show what I mean!

  4. I've been seriously thinking of getting the same watch (the RG version, possibly the power reserve version) but my biggest concern is the quality of the plating. Is it good? I've heard it is not really rose gold, but copper actually.

    It is RG! I had it for 3 years! Great watch, but VERY dressy! When buying thepower reserve version, check thedial, there are some out there that say @6: Made in Germany and not: Made in Switzerland

  5. Very nice, keep us posted. This seems to be one of the nicer, less fussy PP Chrono ST19 models!

    I first wanted the busy dial style with date and functional moon phase (most complications on a rep till today), but those arms are dark blue, but not dark blue enough to pass off as black, so I took this one! Also first I thought cream dial, but white is better I think!

    ... waiting for QC pics!

  6. Hi there,

    it is a rainy Sunday! Just the right weather to sort out holiday pics.
