  4. IWC Top Gun Ceramic 3789 46mm Doppel Chronograph

    in The IWC Area

    Posted

    Not tough to mod, just requires some patience and trial&error. All you need is some paint thinner/remover and bottle of acrylic paint of a matching color. I've done this numerous times for my TG before, plus for a few other mates' TGs as well.

    Documented in a post I made sometime back:

    Gun logo -- 3rd and final attempt!

  6. Noob Question: Planet Ocean 42mm

    in The Omega Area

    Posted

    Welcome!

    As said take a good weekend to read a lot of useful posts/topics on this forum because most questions have been answered already :)

    But to answer yours: They have dissected a genuine watch, so a genuine/real omega has been bought and all pieces have been taken apart and been copied. This is not completely true because for example the movement hasnt been copied 1:1 but still it shows that they at least did their best to make this replica as good as a copy as possible. There are flaws, mistakes, always so nothing is a perfect copy.

    To be sure which replica is the best start searching and reading on this forum, you'll have the answer pretty soon :)

    Cheers

    Hi Everyone,

    Not purchased a replica watch before but I am interested in buying one of these...

    What's meant by "Made with a Genuine Watch Completely Dissected"

    If anyone has bought one of these I would be interested in your opinions

    Plus if anyone has any other advice that would be great

    Thanks

    Looks great! Nice pictures!

    I have the pumpkin UPO, from Puretime, and am very happy with the watch. Read all the reviews about the UPO and according to all it must be a very good rep.

    Buttt now that I have seen the real deal last week on the wrist of a friend of mine I must say I am a bit disappointed :p The Gen orange is a total different colour (lighter?), the colour of the steel is different (lighter again?), and the overall feel is so much better of the Gen... Off course all is what could be expected but I thought my Ultimate was the next best thing.. well almost.

    Well, besides that I wear my UPO a lot, right now actualy :thumbsupsmileyanim: Enjoy wearing it AllergyDoc!

    Sometimes it could happen, that your watch is seized by the AD.... Unbelivable, but true...

    I cant believe this, although some say this could happen. It is not illegal to own a replica in most countries. It is just illegal to sell them or import them in large quantities. There is no way that a guy from the AD will ever take my watch from me, first of all cause i wont be taking a rep in the AD ;) second when I by accident do have one on my wrist he does not have the right to do that (in the Netherlands at least) and i will never allow someone to take it.

    I realy doubt that it has ever hapenned that a rep has been taken by a guy from the AD...

    But off course all could be prevented by not bringing a rep into the AD, prevent the situation from happening :)

  12. Batch crop photos

    Hi,

    I ment resize.

    I have Irfanview, seems very slow to me and painfull, push yes every time its go to another photo.

    cheers

    Hmm... you are doing it wrong than ;) Or have an old version of Irfanview.

    Just click on Batch resize/rename--> Select the pictures- Choose advanced options for adjusting the ratio %, output directory etc. Start and voila all pictures in one click resized, there is no need to push yes all the time.

    This is terrible, my condolences The Zigmeister...

    Last week a (offshore) helicopter ditched here in the northsea but it didn't sink fortunately.

    I work also in the offshore business and just had my helicopter safetytraining (underwater escape also) ... now i know why i have to be prepared.

    All the best to all in this tragic incident.

  17. Skyland V2 strange lume dot at 4

    in The Breitling Area

    Posted

    first mistake - don't look at the watch magnified :)

    youl be happier that way

    lume dots are all over the place on these models - par for the course

    Hehe you i know, but looking with the eye i see the dot is too small so that is why i checked it with the magnifier what the problem was ;) And offcourse i am focused on the dots because of these reviews over here and nobody will notice it besides the real watch fanatics :)

    Thanks for all the comments, i will now unwrap this one, post a dealersreview and wear it with pride! B)

  18. Skyland V2 strange lume dot at 4

    in The Breitling Area

    Hi all,

    got a skyland graphite v2 from eurotimez today and i am very happy with it that it arrived, nice to not have any worries for customs troubles :)

    I didnt unwrap it yet because of the following thing i noticed and i was wondering if that could be a reason to send it back:

    The lume dot at the 4 is realy weird, it looks like they mispalced it (as many other skylands have) but they also painted the white circle black so the misaligment isnt that easy to see... but it is clearly to little and when looked upon closely you will see the blackened white circle. See for yourself:

    So what i'm asking is whether or not this is a reason to send this one back or should i just be happy with it and isnt this a big of a deal since all skylands have lume problems? All other lume dots seem ok by the way. Is this one realy bad?
