The PO is very versatile, IMO. More so than a Sub, which can be worn on a NATO, and maybe leather, but never on rubber.

Reply box looks normal to me with Firefox.

Me too!

In fact, the whole place seems to be running better.

awesome dial...and you get a free cork extractor with it...

Clearly, it's an espresso machine.

Welcome, Mr. Magoo!

Use the advanced search button in the upper right hand corner of your screen. Search for threads started by member "Lanikai" and you'll be treated to a plethora of astounding watch photos! I mean, the man has one of everything.

Psst... There's a rumor, which I have yet to confirm, that if you upgrade your membership to Platinum, you get a massage by the dancing girl in member Demsey's siggy.

Will we receive support from everyone that uses the forum??

No, you won't. You never will unless you make support compulsory.

The discussion is about how the non-supporters are treated and the general attitude towards them. Corgi's point is valid and is emblematic of my original point. (I noticed that myself but lacked the computer know-how to point it out.)

dunno,.... but the fact remains.... we "all" should be responsible for supporting "our community".. else the responsibility falls on the "elitist" .. if you want to be fair in labeling those who do support the rest of the community..then it has to go both ways me thinks .. do these members block out anyone else that chooses not to help ?? I don't think so...

I'm not bright enough to figure out what your point is here. Who's labeling supporters "elitists"? I personally haven't labeled the supporters, as a whole, anything.

It seems to me you're feeling picked on. I don't know how things are organized here, but perhaps raising the dough to keep the lights on is your responsibility.

I apologize if my remarks seem directed at you, Lani. They weren't. You do more for this board than anyone, at least to my eyes. It's almost like you're carrying the forum on your back right now, what with your detailed reviews, stunning photography, and friendly banter.

But... I have to say there is a definite tone running the board in general, and certainly in your post I'm replying to, that people who use the board without supporting are not welcome.

Yes, noobs get their questions answered. I personally haven't felt unwelcome. Ever. But others have. I know because I run into them on other fora.

This place should be the king of the hill. All the true rep brains and innovators are here. This place should be rocking! But it isn't, because it has the reputation of being unfriendly. Like it or not.

If ya'll are okay with this, nothing needs to be done, I guess. But if you, we, (I've ponied up now), want this place to hop again, something different has to done.

Oh, I see. Platinum members get to say "[censored]" but not VIPs?

So there IS a massage!

I haven't and would never single anyone out. Except for that [censored] Demsey.

But let's not lose sight of the 'thing' here. 'AllergyDoc' started all this fracas. See the Pandora's box you opened up Doc? I don't believe in banning as all can be worked out by calmer heads. But a suspension of posting privileges? That's not entirely uncalled for.

If you have any sway with the admin here, Make it so #1. Apparently the only way I'll ever stop blowing so much time on the rep watch fora is to be banned, or not be allowed to post.

I AM seeing an angle here, though... More sex = less time on the rep watch fora

I'll try floating that with the missus.

I started this thread with the hopes of raising awareness of

Very interesting stuff.

On a $25 leather band from Panatime:

Strap is not as thick as it needs to be, especially as it tapers towards the buckle. The keepers are flimsy. I bought the extra long strap so there's plenty to go through both keepers.

I think the rep calf straps for Breitling are better, but this one will do for now. I feel better wearing the Skyland to the office when it's on leather.

I just ordered a UPO from Mary, then I remembered reading that the text by the "6" on the dial on the white numbered models was printed too close the number. Anyone know if this has been fixed yet or not?

If it's not fixed, I'll have her order the orange numbered model.

No fruit basket for me. Not even a thank you e-mail with a link to the secret dealer for VIPs only.

I wouldn't cross swords with Dems Doc.... he can weld a mighty strong stroke if he wants..

Not worried about him here. You mods have him on a short leash!

Lani has the perfect DeepSea answer for you.

Welcome!

Owen was a freeloader. Some come to the party with something to share. Some just come to the party. Some come to the party empty handed and take home half a cake. Then post a vid on YouTube of them eating the cake at home.

"Oren"

Please pay attention.

Not if they bring beers, cigars, girlie pics, or post something relevent or somewhat enlightening with regard to 'replica watches'. Like a review or wristie or link to an ETA page.

And your contribution falls into which of these categories?

Other than your siggy, of course.

So everyone who visits the board but doesn't pay is a freeloader?

You are beating a death Horse. If you do not want to pay for your membership. then do not pay and keep going with your life.

"dead horse"

gioarmani,

Your siggy is my new religion!

Leather strap should arrive today.

I've been obsessing over finding the best DSSD for longer than probably anyone here. Hours of comparing reps to the genuine article have given me a great deal of insight about the subtleties in the differences between the past failings of dealers and mfrs who have presented us with 1:1, ultimate, ultimate ultimate....

I think you're the kind of dude who should but a gen. You're just going to drive yourself nuts buying reps. Old Rob from Texas was like you, obsessing endlessly over crown guards, crystal height, etc. Drove his wife nuts so she gave him the okay to get a used Sub. Now old Texas Rob's happy!

RWG administration does not err. Ever.

The Immaculate Admin?

Papal Mods?
