  1. The current Reversos are rubbish. First, they're WAY too thick. Second, the flip mechanism is clumsy and roughly finished. I've seen quite a few (and owned two), and clumsy is not what this watch is supposed to be all about. Plus, none of them are remotely close to the gens. I would avoid them if I were you. Hope that helps.
  2. I only wish more folks were as cautious. Well done.
  3. Amen. Post your gun theories somewhere else New Guy; let's stick to watches please.
  4. Please ignore the "oh yeah; what day is the wedding?" email I just sent you... Good on ya Ken!
  5. That original thread sparked A TON of debate; some interesting, some just plain stupid. Afterwards, I was blown away by the number of members who PMd me expressing their interest in a guide on watches, etiquette, and the psychology of dress. I was hesitant, as people tend to respond badly to being 'told' what they should and should not wear in specific events, but I think as long as I make clear that no one's telling anyone what they can and can't do (it's just etiquette; just a suggestion), I think we can keep it positive. Here's the thing about etiquette and class: you don't have to have or project either if you don't want to. You wanna wear a green Mohawk to work, and sit in a board meeting with a chain running from your lip to your nose, you go right ahead. But you are absolutely deluded if you think that either won't have any impact on the impression others have of you. Of course, if this describes you, you probably don't care. I'll be putting this guide together as a photo-tutorial of sorts in May. I'll use my own collection as examples; I've got some fairly unique reps, and all are custom-strapped by Aaron, so should be interesting on that level alone. If you feel strongly that there is no such thing as etiquette, no such thing as the psychology of dress, and no connection between either and the kind of watch you choose to wear, I'd suggest you simply not waste your time reading the guide. There's plenty of great threads here that will likely interest you more; this will be for those who do have an interest in the above. And that should be fine, no? Afterall, you don't see those who hate Pannies posting "Pannies Suck" responses in the Panerai forum - they just spend their time elsewhere.
  6. Uh... Too late? Just kidding New Guy; here's your answer: That's just Neil. He's kind of like a tornado, lightning, or the lottery. He may quite simply never answer your emails. That's just the way it goes. I've bought from him without issue, and I have also been occasionally completely ignored. You've got to sort of get into a 'Zen-thing' with Neil; sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, but IT'S NOTHING TO DO WITH YOU. People get into trouble with TTK when they actually expect something other than a watch they've purchased (which in my experience he delivers without fail). Keep trying, don't obsess, find other watches from other dealers, and if he gets in touch, great; you'll get a fantastic watch. If not, don't take it personally - it's not you or anything about you. Hope that helps.
  7. No you don't; you has a bucket.
  8. Oh great; mine's gone into the void...
  9. Was I not right? Welcome to Neil's House of Pain, [censored]! Wooooh!
  10. This is what it's like to get into it with Neil: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-6238953685626218421 Wooooh!
  11. Yes, but it's useful for striking people over the head with.
  12. Sigh... Search function, newbie; SEARCH FUNCTION. Here - I'll help you out: http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=943&hl= Your answer's in there.
  13. Bought new fusion irons last season, but could totally go for a new driver. I'm in!
  14. Congrats Ken! Please let us know when and where for the Stag...
  15. Damn! Those are really good... I'm stealing them and putting them in Outlook.
  16. Try the PP 24 from River. It's very accurate, and comfortable to wear to boot. Many of the members have bought it for their significant others, and it gets excellent reviews.
  17. Dude; check out Ken's LV stuff at Bergies... Nice!
