Did the TD also tell you to spin around three times while chanting O-M-E-G-A? LOL!!!

Unusual VC. Where did you get it?

A Parmigiani day.

Huge.

What size is the case? 36mm?

This newly released GP 1966, sized at 38mm, would make an outstanding rep. I'd be one of the first to buy.

44mm x 11.25mm

Searched the Web for Audemars-Piguet Safari. Quite a few pics out there.

Thread is worthless without pics.

My bad. Had the Hublot confused with the AP Offshore. The symmetry on the AP is much smoother.

508, That is a gorgeous strap.

Small and sleek...

Is the misalignment of the markers at 12 a typical issue with this iteration?

The screws on the front of the Hublot seem misaligned. Don't follow a typical flow around the dial. I'm an IWC fan.

Sweet! How thick is the case. Mind telling me where you got it. Thanks

Newly acquired, slightly used, Parmigiani Fleurier Kalpa Hebdomadaire.

Minute hand. LOL.

Since you aren't using the SS bracelet, try one of the many methods posted on the forum to lubricate it. I tried one method on my Omega PO and it worked wonders.

If you know what you want couldn't the dealer just ship you the strap?

Absolutely beautiful.

Thanks for the quick reply. None of the items mentioned would deter me from buying the watch. It is a beauty. Just curious as to the configuration. This could be my third purchase since taking up the hobby last month. Man, I need to slow down. LOL!!!

Help a newb understand this rep. Although the front of the watch looks amazing, the back of the watch draws my attention to the fact that the rep movement is upside down compared to the gen. Are there no comparable rep movements that would be more accurate? Also, why use blue screws at all? John - learning a bit more each day.

Just received my IWC Portofino yesterday. At 40mm x 9.5mm it is a great size.

Here is another 36mm I found. http://www.kuvarsit-watch.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=30725Being I'm new at this so I'm not sure if this is a bargain or not. First time I've seen mention of 440 stainless steel. Anybody dealt with this company before? I really want a good 36mm copy.

Found this 36mm version. http://www.bestwatchuk.com/rolex-swiss-explorer-srl156-p343.aspx Seems awfully shiny and expensive. Anybody familiar with the company?
