I believe it is safe to say that he was one of the greatest artists in the human history who influenced many lives and will continue to do so on a daily basis through the music he left behind.
Rest in peace.

wow, thats probably over 1,000,000$ in watches right there...
man, this guy had a vision when he started buying them up decades ago...!

Ubi, do you know who sells sets with correct shape/length hands? I noticed that some of these ETA sets have even wrong hour hand dimensions...
I really like Gary quite a lot and I do think he carries some great products. However, the one glaring issue with these hands (in my opinion) is the seconds hand and how short the tail is on it. If you were to mix/match the hour/min hands with a good seconds hand and have them relumed to match, I think you'd end up with a great set of hands. But the cost to do this would be a bit more than the $14.50 bargain... -
haha. thats why i did not see pics the first time. i thought i was going crazy..... may be i should stop checking this thread so often...
IMO, properly done daytonas are the "whales" of the rep world!
guys, i wish the parts were not so expensive....!
Pics added where applicable- Please forgive the quality as some of my images are several years oldI added images where I could; I haven't owned all of these variations, but I have had my fair share...

-
any idea where one can get a correct case for 9411 at realistic price?

thanks for excellent write up!

replica is supposed to be affordable ......for us regular people. Yes ... i suppose you could "replicate" picasso for mucho $$$$ but whats the point? its still a reproduction. But i do understand where you are coming from. If my funds were not limited i would not care to spend $$$$ on such great project.
Congrats!!! You lucky bastard i suppose.

is this project alive?

for me it was an eye opener when i found out that quartz atches also need servicing. did you find out yet how much it runs to service this movement? being 10+ years old it is probably due for overhaul.
SMP's are great, always liked them. thanks for great review!

i'd set up a hidden cam if i were you.....
Thanks very much! I was hoping to hear from you By Tor, I too am a gmt freak. I have 25 watches and for 6 mo I only wore my Bvlgari gen and my GMT rep and now they are both gone. Its a tough situation, both the maid and the babysitter are still working for us, I leave watches out all the time and none ever come missing. I cant imagine what happened to them as I take them off when I get home, set them in my room somewhere and put them back on the nxt day. Has anyone else ever experienced this? Im so frustrated but I think they would have turned up by now. I will closely heed your suggestions, thanks again. -
great watch!
I emailed Joshua and he said they are out of stock and not likely to be sold at this price again... -
wow! thank you so much for sharing!
-
I see the A's... j/k great looking classic pam. Movement in mine stopped, so i may need to find a replacement soon.
-
This is a swasian movement in best case scenario, in worst case its all asian. But its never 100% swiss.
Unless davidsen has access to Panerai assembly line to get those engraved plates...
Really confused now if it's a Swiss E movement or an Asian one. -
im neither but still have some love left for my Alma Mater.
yes Hahvahd is down by ~6billion this year, but their endowment is still bigger than entire economies of some countries. lol.
That Harvard number is a little different now They just halted construction of their 400 million dollar science center until their endowment pops back...Still, a great gesture and, sadly, a necessity in a country where college funding has slumped so significantly in the last few years.
By the way- are you a student or faculty mil_sub?
.. me thinks that this is something personal.
Maybe it was someone that is upset with the Ivy League, because by the looks of things none of the top names got anything. -
do you have kangaroo subs in australia ????
-
i hope she had like a 100,000$ bet with her friends that she'll go swimming with the bears and will be able to get out alive. otherwise its just plain stupid...!
-
i'll repeat freddy, older jag is a good second or third car/weekend driver. every day = no no, unless you love you local jag specialist so much!!!
-
cool! im a big fan.
-
crisis? what crisis? lol good to hear there are some reasonable wives out there.
-
one of the conditions was that most of the money goes directly to students in scholarships.
starving people in developing countries? only if you go there yourself and give out money on the streets, otherwise most of it will end up in corrupt official's pockets. lol, i grew up there and seen how it works. unfortunately, with corrupt governments there is very little you can do by just giving money.
Stupid. They make enough money already. Give it to a charity, for marginalized people, or for starving people in developing countries...Exactly, that's why money are going directly to students who cant afford insane cost of education and we need more educated people in this country.
on the other hand this is a drop in a sea for big universities. Here is how much some schools had in '08:
Harvard University $ 36.556 billion USD
MIT $ 10.069 billion
University of Chicago $ 6.632 billion
-
How cool is this? i hope this happened for the right reasons and not because money came from "questionable" sources. One of the conditions was that most of the money goes directly to students in scholarships.
Probably some hedge fund manager who made a killing in last 12 months shorting everything and everyone now feeling bad how college financing dried up ... in any case its cool that not everyone "up there" likes to show off.
In my last university the guy who gave millions every year made sure everybody knows where the money come from. Lol, you have to write thank you letters every year (if you receive a scholarship), like they care or have time to read these letters.
This guy (or guys) get thumbs up from me !!!
