  1. I think we should lynch you, Mr. Forum famous. You threadcrapped on my OT thread which was aimed at helping us bump past this ho-hum time, not add inches to post count (speaking of which I should bump that, thanks for reminding me). Then you snuck in and bought that moonwatch out from underneath everyone.
  2. Put some work into this two nights ago, its still keeping me company until my POrikka arrives from HackR.
  3. Good times! I got a swiss SOSF when they first came out, won't leave my collection. I'm currently waiting for a POrikka not so patiently.
  4. Still, this is good to know. I would've used it yesterday with HackR had I known.
  5. Hey chrono sorry I didnt reply sooner. Here's a tutorial to finding what strap size you want. http://panatime.com/sizechart.html
  6. Exactly Val. We all have something to offer, new or old. I'm as guilty as anyone, but this is also huge: When people post pics or threads and you read them, reply. I hate nothing more than spending an hour or two taking pics to share with you guys, only to see 60 views and 3 replies. Thats rood forum etiquette. Say "Nice watch". Say "those pics SUCK", just say something, we all like having been replied to. Golden rule. Golden smiley -->
  7. If someone was buying it for me to wear, not trade in for money? I don't know. Probably a DRSD or a Newman. I'm booooring. Its such a hard question to answer. My answer would change with my mood which mimics reality, how the watch I wear changes based on my mood.
  8. We can see why, looks good TMG! Last night I gave my far from "perfect" sub some much overdue TLC. I worked the CG's over, sanded the bezel down and installed a WM pearl, replaced the crown with a better version, greased my seals, brushed my bracelet, kicked the tires and lit the fires. I wear it...
  9. The summer heat has everyone hot under the collar the past few weeks. Whew. Our members are still privy to the best out of the box reps for their money, whether they want to take it to the next level or not is up to them. Some of us enjoy taking pics, some modding, some just enjoy the watches. Not everyone here sinks a grand+ into their reps, or turns them into a 90% I can't believe its not gen franken. I'm content with my barely modded pieces. I posted a Submariner/Sea-Dweller budget shoot out in the Rolex subforum this week. Its not hidden, its on the first page. The most bang for your buck for $250 or less! As a matter of fact, I vented the same thing as you about the costs associated with buying into the RWG club as of late. Thread:
  10. As title says. I'm looking to source one half of a brown rep PAM strap. The side with the holes, not the side with the buckle. I know a lot of people don't use these straps, anyone willing to part with this?
  11. Since the upgrade I couldn't find my own ___ if you gave me a map and a guide, don't feel bad. The gen was RobbieG's!
  12. strapculture straps may run a little dark. At least the legends do. I know mine and others I've seen look nothing like they do on the site. Still an awesome strap though. I'll have the size for you in an hour or two when I get home.
  13. I used to be so excited to see this repped. But with the mechanical turd in the back... Looks like what I used to see my buddys come back from NY with. Meh.. If they do a grey dial and make it CHEAP I'll buy one.
  14. Welcome. Check out Toad's guide. This is going to be a great spring board for you Your question is sort've a running joke on the boards as you will see. All 20,000 members start off with their first thread asking the same exact question you did. I'll help you this time. You basically have 3 choices. 3 watches. 3 price ranges. WM9v2, noob, or ssd. WM9v2 is the abbrev. for watchmaker9 Version2. Noob is noobmariner. SSD is super sea-dweller. Each has its own personality traits and tells. Again, welcome. You just got way more help than most, so pay it forward. Once you figure out what all this stuff means and see the next newcomer come along, remember it used to be you!
  15. I haven't had the metal tested if thats what you mean. It was explained to me that it was 100% Ti. I looks identical to other Ti when compared. I'm pretty good with metals, It feels like and acts like Ti. I'm safely saying yes its absolutely real. I'll have to get back to you on the strap size tonight. Thank you NPF.
  16. Good times. I love tank command. On the C64, my father and I got high-score in river raid. We sent a picture to Activision and they sent us River Raid patches. Whats AAE?
  17. Clive, Ms. Understood aka "the wretched fluffer", viagra, and that book, were the only things left that kept Dirk young! Throw in a tug from said infamous mistress and perhaps you just gave Lani the fountain of youth!
  18. So basically Nanuq found out Lanikai had the sniffles, and rationalized it being ok to snag Dirk Pitts coffee table book? And to think Dirk came to Nanuq for wisdom on icebergs, and raising heavy objects only to have a prized posession lifted from sight. Seriously, I don't know if any of you are Clive Cussler fans. The thought of Doxa and literature together made me think of this. An awesome gift I'm truly excited to see bequeathed upon a most awesome guy.
  19. And it begins... I thought these YM's were even better than gens?

    SSD Vs Noob

    Todays standards being a BKv2 right? BT.. I'm sure you remember finding RWG. Like most, you didn't want to spend $800 on a replica Rolex right? Some of us still won't or can't. We've come a long way. For me there still has to be some sort of limit as to how much I'm willing to throw at a fake watch before it becomes savings towards the gen. I'm ok with a few minor faults. Even WM9's are imperfect.

    SSD Vs Noob

    I wish I had that problem!
  22. This is my home forum, however I do pop in to some of the other sites from time to time like many of us. When you start a topic, do you mirror them on the other sites? I sort've feel like it would be a bit redundant to do that all the time. What say you? Hope this isn't a faux pah question. I'm sure all of us hang out a little bit of everywhere, but in what capacity?
