I know there are those of you who are against using them, but those of you who do, what watch winder (brand, ebay, acetimer etc) are you using? Pics are appreciated as well as prices. I think I want a new piano black at least 6 watch winder. I currently have a quad which holds my watches but my woman's datejust doesnt have a space for it. Shes not happy that she has to reset it if she doesnt wear it for a day or so.

Very nice choice. Its very classy. Great pictures too! Welcome to RWG

I use 1 watch when I travel. My white dialed Explorer II. I love the fact that I can keep track of Hawaii time vs where I'm at. (Japan, Canada, Paris, NYC) It allows me to call home and not call them at 3am accidently. :-) I dont think it really hinders the ability to adjust to the timezone difference. For instance it was 12 hours difference while we were in Paris a week ago. After the 2nd day I was on Paris time, I think the fact that the sun went down at 10PM everynight was more confusing than having the watch tell me the time was 10am in Hawaii. In fact I love the watch's GMT feature so much I'm strongly considering it to be my 1st genuine purchase, more so than a Submariner.

thanks for all the replies....i guess ill hold off on getting one. I dont really feel like spending 300 on a paper weight.

I really want a 2001 Sec @ 6 model, but as we all know, they are known to be time bombs. I just was curious to see how many people have this watch and how long its lasted you.

Haha, Thanks Bro...I'll keep that in mind. My own personal strong arm

R - True that, my friend is a postal worker locally and he does 2 routes himself some days....its kinda rough. Actually I moved, I'm up in Central Oahu now. =)

Thanks R and Krusty....I want it to hurry and get there so Rob can work his magic

it shows it was in and out of customs 2 days and now says "item processed at postal facility" I hope they didnt lose it.

R, You really make me want one of these!!

watchmaterial.com is where u can get the almost gen like pearl. is the whole watch polished?

wow nice review R!! I cant wait to get my 7750 serviced, just waiting for the months to pass by =) I wonder if they will ever do the seconds at 6 properly. If they do I'll finally be able to own a modern daytona!

I've gone thru like only 15 total since i've registered here. I went a little nuts the 1st few months, and ended up selling a bunch of them Not as nuts as you thou Lani!

Nice!! I've been loving my WM9, I really need to swap the crystal one day. I've had the clarks crystain in my parts box for like 5 months now. Alas I dont have a crystal press so I'm not sure when it will get swapped.

Very Cool Story R!! Where is this mystery shop btw? Hope you are enjoying your watches, I dont stop by as often as I should but works been keeping me busy!

I swear I put on my watch before I read this thread this morning..... By-Tor we have the same ideas!

I think all of DW's recent black bezels are like that. =( Freddy pointed mine out too and i asked DW to send me a new one...he sent me 2...both with 90s the same way =/

another one!? Baller! Good Luck R!

I'm with By-Tor today. Quick and Dirty Photo taken with my new Blackberry 8900!

wow hes sold 4 of them at least since i posted this thread. I think ill wait for a deal where it comes with box and manual....sounds sketchy. thanks for the input guys!

Looks good R! Congrats again. If you get too "empty feeling" I'd be glad to take it off your hands hehehe Wear it well

^ hence me not wanting one and making sure i would get the real deal haha... now that Offshore mentions it.... I was in Japan last year and was looking at Seikos in the tourist areas and one of the guys had mentioned "made in china" i wonder if he was tryign to tell me it was a fake?

I agree on the rip off on shipping. They said to pick the Fed Ex option for Hawaii shipping and it would be sent out via USPS and adjusted. they charge me 11.80 for a $4.85 package shipped thru USPS bastids. I did call today and speak to a lady (Sharon was not in today) and she said they would call me when the part comes in. I'd like to order it from somewhere else BUT I'm affraid that I'll end up with 2 pushers that dont match? *sigh* I have a few months before the watch gets shipped to Canada, lets hope I get my part or get a matching one from another place.

Looking at this watch for when I go to the beach. http://cgi.ebay.com/SEIKO-MENS-AUTOMATIC-O...0QQcmdZViewItem however i see the seller is asia. Have there been lots of known Seiko reps? I mean the real watches themselves are not all that expensive so I'd hate to end up with a fake. thoughts? experiences?

Lani thanks, I'll call tomorrow and ask for Sharon.
