  1. Does anyone know of anyplace to service reps in the KY/OH area in USA? Specifically a7750?
  2. Fedora for sure, when the temp drops though it's off to the Fur Mad Bomber. I always worry though walking in the woods with it on - near sighted hunters. My dog loves it also and cuddles with it, but the cat attacks it on sight.
  3. I got a rep TAG formula I a while back and ended up wearing it as an everyday screw around in watch. I got it used off this forum. It died after about a year and I cracked the back to see if it could be fixed; all of seven jewels,,,,,,,, not worth it. I tried our dealers trying to find a replacement,,,,,,,, no luck. The joke is I liked the rep so much I ended up buying the real thing just to replace the Rep Some watches just feel good when you wear them.
  4. I'm a custom jeweler and work out of a private studio. When my studio was in the city I had three attempted burglaries and one attempted robbery. There is a loaded pistol in the safe and one in the bench. Every attempt was foiled not by the gun but by the dogs, save one. I was moving my studio next to my house in the country and had already moved the dogs,,,,,,,,,,,, a shame. My wife and I have both White Sheppard and Pit bull. I do have to agree with Dani, the Sheppard is scarier. The pit is very defensive about us, the Sheppard is defensive over her property as well. During the robbery they got the drop on me but the Sheppard had no hesitation pulling the trigger; and she was loaded to the teeth. Took on two teens, who were fortunate I regained control of her. BTW the one successful burglary really wasn
  5. Naaaa, even after growing up in Chicago the best Pizza I've ever eaten was in Garmisch. A hidden little place with a full view of the Alps. The best Goulasch soup is served in the cafe on top of the Zugspitz - the colder it is the better the soup.
  6. Neat thread, 1. Family 2. Boating and fishing through the summer months. 3. Moonshining - the making of distilled spirits,,,,,,drinking it's fun too. 4. Beekeeping 5. Gardening 6. Watches 7. Restoring stuff 8. Hunting - if the weather doesn't get too nasty.

  8. Wow! After 20 years in the military I always thought myself a bit right wing. The test tells me I'm a left wing libertarian wuss. Well even if I start wandering around in home spun underwear I'll still wear the authorative symbol that time matters - my watch.
  9. Hey Folks, had a bit of misfortune. I was repairable and survived but my TAG formula 1 didn't. It certainly isn't the greatest of my reps but I wear it the most often. My wrist really feels kinda naked without it. The trouble is I puchased it from a member here and not from a dealer. I have seen a couple dealers carry it but I don't remember who. I'm looking for the dealers who sell the TAG formula 1, black dial, with just the date. Any help would be appreciated.

  11. It's RCI, anything other than what is sporting a crown on it would be lost on most the clientele. Really want to impress the crowd? Carry a book thicker than the menu. Don't wear it off the boat while exploring off tour or on your own - it's a invitation and it does happen. Customs? You shouldn't have much to worry about with two or three watches. We once over bought booze and as we approached customs our porter offered sage advise; only offer information if directly asked. If you want to play the game next time go Celebrity, Silver Seas, or Holand American. Where the blackjack dealer not only notice which watch your wearing but your cufflinks and shoes as well. VC would not be lost to them.
