I am getting the watches sent to me for a detailed inspection. I will report back ASAP with the news, and also what the dealer says in response, AND, hopefully to get some help from the more learned fellas on here! Thanks for everything so far guys! Moi

@ TTK, I know now never to do this. I didn't even think of it as a big deal until this stuff happened... the poop hit the fan so to speak.

I am sure i could get him to send them to me. But then again some of the problems described with the Chanel are just blatantly not on. Such as the oxidised clasp etc etc. The problems with the Corum present a problem that maybe you guys might have the answer for. He says that the glass distorts when viewed from an angle. Well does anyone else experience this with their watch? Does this happen also with the origian, due to the shape or cut of the glass? Moi

Dear Vic, Yes i mentioned to the dealer that i also paid the extea $40 for the box for the Chanel etc. Which never came... Basically the situation i have here is my friend wants a refund, or two new watches. I will have to give him the money back if i can't sort this out! I know some of you will say it isn't my fault, he knew the risks etc etc. But he didn't. I told him that everything would be perfect, so i have to take responsibility for that comment and false sense of security... Moi

Dear All, I bought two watches from a dealer from these boards. I won't mention names. There is a slight catch however, i bought them for a friend, got them delivered to his house. Whne he got them he was not at all happy; here is what he wrote to me in regards to the two watches: Chanel J12 - white (this is the full ceramic version, Asian movement) Second hand - off line No Automatic word under J12 Bezel loose The whole surround of the face moves 3-4mm as if it will fall apart. Clasp has oxidization and words distorted

Lanikai, Thanks dude! Awaiting your PM. Moi

Dear Lanikai, Thanks for this great comparison! Its funny, but i just posted a question on a comparison between the two only a couple of hours ago, to find that you have written this! Well, i am not Hublot master, by no means. So i just wanted to ask a few questions, if you don't mind. You say that the Black Magic should have a polished bezel... i take it that the Auth Black Magic has a polished bezel then? Do you know of anyone who does a Black Magic Lite with the polished Bezel? What i am looking for is a Black Magic that is as close to the Gen as possible, i am talking looks wise pretty much mirror image; and i am trying my best not to spend a ridiculous amount of money in finding one. Ideally there would be a lite version, with a polished bezel, do you know if this exists? If not, can you tell me who you got this Lite version from and for what price? Thanks a lot! Moi

Hi All, Can anyone here give me any pointers on how different the HB Ceramic looks to its Lite cousin? I know that the bezel on the Lite is PVD coated, how different does it actually look from the Ceramic bezel? Thanks! Moi

Hey All, Does anyone here know what the term "Advised" stands for on Parcelforce's website? Thanks! Moi

Old Bert over here has always done me proud! <-- Holy crap-o-la! I made it to the 300 posts mark! In your FACE Chiefy Babes!

Thanks Lanikai for helping! You are officially on my "Top ten Gangsters" list! Moi

Dear All (admin, mods, all you guys, etc etc), Just thought i would publicly announce that Lanikai has very kindly offered to pay my annual subscription fees on my behalf. I will Paypal him the money, he will then pay it for me using whatever methods he has available to him that are accepted by RWG, then, RWG, please make sure that my status gets ugraded, not his double time! We both agreed that we would publicly announce it on the forum, just so all bases are covered and it is known by the group, especially admin and mods. Thanks a lot for the help L! I really appreciate it and funds coming your way right now! Moi

Dear All, Want to pay for an annual membership. However, back in my day you uld do this using Paypal! But oh no, not these days. I have money in my PP account ONLY. If someone is willing to allow me to send the correct amount into their PP account, and then pay on my behalf the membership fee, (making sure it is known that it is on my behalf), then i would really appreciate it. Hope someone can help me to do my small bit in contributing to this amazing website! Moi

PLEASE Stop posting on here. It's not allowed.

Chiefybabes! My god, you just pop in and pop out of my life like a prairie dog! Don't be such a friggin' stranger, and, yeah i am having a gander on here and am finding some interesting info, as always. However, i also want a BOOK about it, for a friend, as a lte XMas pressie. Any more info for me Chiefy? @ Vic - Thanks for the link, looks to be very good reading for my own personal use. Moi

Dear All, I was wondering if anyone can recommend a really basic, but useful, book in the methods of making watch straps? Thanks, and hope you all had a Merry Christmas and will have a Happy & Properous New Year! Moi

Most dealers have some bling models. Try King, she has some nice blinged up Hublot Big Bangs, Jacob & Co's... then you have some Breits with bling bezels, which i beleive Andrew does, among others of course I would personally go for a Hublot Big Bang with diamond bezel from King. Moi

Because getting my membership status is not dependent on selling this watch. My membership status is keeping my exchange in for the forum that has saved me

Dear Admin, First of all, please don't think i am trying to sell this watch without being a paying member on these boards. In fact, by tomorrow i will be a paying member, no that i have finally got my paypal account in order and my [censored] well enough to get back to work! I wanted to gauge interest in a watch that i am selling on behalf of a client of mine. He has a GEN Zenith El Primero, no box however, V Good condition, SS Bracelet, that he wants to sell. He is sending it to me tomorrow, so it will be with me by Saturday and i will have pics up on the board by then. That is if anyones interested, as, if not, fleabay here i commeth! Anyone interested? Moi

Cheers boys! Feel at ease now.

Pug! I am going to Paris on the 14th of Dec... I NEED it by then! (Must impress to gorgeous GF syndrome) Moi

Have a watch coming over to me from King. It has been sent via EMS, which then converts to parcelforce for the UK. However since the 2nd of Dec the tracking number it takes me two times of typing the tracking number in for the parcelforce website to recognise the tracking number AND also it usually gives you a breakdown of where the parcel is. It says on the website that it left China on the 2nd of Dec and and doesnt show any information after this. Never experienced this before, is it usual, is anyone else experiencing this? Thanks! Moi

I'm in love with the Fifty Fathoms!Lets get it repped, like we have done with so many other watches.So who's going to start the poll to get the board to agree on this and get one of the dealers to start working on it? Alright Chiefy! Long time no smell by the way! Moi

I should get some type of medal or something for asking questions that get the BEST replies on here... *cough cough* admin...
