Barbour Jacket Victoria? What a sporting wrist shot!
May I quote Salt-n-Pepa about you, Vlydog:
"Whatta Man, Whatta Man, Whatta Man, What A Mighty Good Man!"
I love a man who knows what's what in life. Yes, my Beaufort which you'll see more of tomorrow.

And this is the Eagle Driver Airwolf
With Steve Fossett in mind, maybe if I were an F-15 pilot, I'd go with the Emergency model.
But this one just looks like a cockpit on acid, and that's great!

Well, to put things in perspective: I acccidentalyy activated these ads after doing some changes to the google ads last week. They stayed online for about 6-7 hours. Those 6-7 hours generated the same revenue as the google ads usually do in 1-2 weeks.
The clincher will be if the ad revenue keeps up, or if it was just a click out of first week curiosity, which I suspect it was.

Find The Sexiest Women In Miami!
Find Hot Women In Miami!"
...lot of lonely guys out there.

WOW! So far a perfect match, Section8!
My wife - don't need much of an explanation there. Coming up on our 10th anniversary.But the good ones are always taken. Congrats. Tin and pewter tankards are always nice.
(I am actually the most similar to Rima! Except for the long walks bit. I just don't look good in Timberlands)
-
Although I have no personal objections to the content of the ads, I don't think that they will be of much use as revenue generators, as the majority of posters here (from what I have seen) appear to be people in long-term relationships... Not that there's anything wrong with enjoying the view
Here is my recent post on the matter:

Go-between tackiness, I called it then. But as my dear old grannie used to say, better out than in, so start clicking!

Ok now I'm starting to wonder...
It's been 7 days since I sent Jay the funds, and I know he got the money as he PM'd me saying he received it, only I haven't heard anything from him since then. No tracking number or anything....
Should I be worried??
Neither for me. I appended another watch to the order, so I think I added to his burdens though. ;(
But not once has he failed to answer my PMs about watch info, so in case he emails me back with my latest question, I will again ask about you, Aegis. If you could PM me with the email you used, that would help -- he said last time that he didn't recognise your ID, "Aegis".
If you're comfortable with that, of course.

Perhaps I just need to have a drink and lighten up a little
You don't need a drink to have fun.
Although it's fun to drink.

While I agree T, some topics like guns and politics can change the dynamic of a place quickly IMO
So can religion. So can money. So can...sex.
I know what you're saying, Dluddy. Remember, I came down strongly against political discussion in one thread. I believe that's the only topic which poisons the atmosphere for days, even if we all claim we're open-minded. But it's also my opinion that debate amongst peers can be about any topic in the world, so long as you have respect for each other, not just for their views.
Look at me and Pugwash. We had a great debate ensemble about religion, and I think neither of us think any the less of the other, because we did. That's the way to go!
P.S.: The gun thread is closed, but stay tuned one day for a gun and watches wrist-check. An one-off, but I keep my promises.

All, thanks for the advice, but I've got a Fiddy on order with PT at the mo; just wondered if anybody knew where I could source good buckles, preferably GFP and with Panerai logo/script.
I too want the closest to OEM logo buckle as possible, but so far, have had no joy. The logo ones offered by Davidsen are not GPFs, and a real Panerista would know the difference.
I once found a guy on *Bay (a Floridian watch dealer, at that) who sold the exact same ones as DSN's*, charging USD55 + shipping for each, but his account was suspended. I presume Panerai had him closed down.
*I bought two. A few days later, I bought the first DSN Fiddy, which came with one logo buckle, the other the plain "PANERAI", despite having requested two logos. As Rolexsandwich reiterated, sometimes it takes a few packages from DSN, so eventually I got the other.
-
One question though, where did you get that buckle from?
They come standard with the two Davidsen Fiddy straps (of better quality than your average rep strap, which is abysmal. Still not very good, though).
I personally have too many of the Pre-V "Panerai" only buckles, so I always ask for the logo PAM buckle from David. If he has them, he sends them, but you have to make SPECIAL note of that in your email.

So, can one of the admins please expound on VIP membership a bit and put it in a sticky/pinned post?
Thanks so much,
- from all the noobs
Here are some quick philosophical reasons from a fellow noob about why you should become a VIP:
1) Supporting a hobbyist forum which provides you with informative help, both on the public and private (PM) level.
2) Realising that this forum accrues substantial offshore account bills, which sometimes Admin personally pays (not fair on him).
3) A community of kindred souls, of exceptional character and spirit. All rep forums have their great points, but RWG is the best of the lot.
4) It's the most international of the forums, from my experience. More viewpoints, more relevant information.
5) Being a newbie is difficult in any forum. Buying a VIP membership shows at the very least, that what you may lack in knowledge, you make up in good faith.
The practical benefits are numerous, such as having access to speciality collector (dealer) forums, and their specific websites/emails.
But personally, I'm here for the camaraderie of like-minded rep watch collecting folk.

Going right on to my wallpaper desktop, after the requisite week after Corpsman and Puggy's wallpapers. Thanks, TWP!
Yesterday, I was driving around and decided to stop at a Starbucks. For whatever reason, they have the best customer service personnel of all similar establishments -- they are smart, affable and upbeat.
I take out my wallet to pay, and the girl says:
"OH MY GOD WHAT A WATCH, what is THAT?!"
"Oh hey, you like watches? Thanks! (pause, showing my wrist to her, with a big ole, thankful grin on my face)
"That's the most beautiful watch I've ever seen. Sure looks expensive though"
"You'd be surprised (wink), just keep working hard."
I've never had more compliments on any watch in all my life, as when I wear the HBB.

There is a big difference between generic and designer clothes. Go buy a Hugo boss suit sometime and compare the quality. The top brands have better quality control, designers, materials, and factories. Gap is really a bargain bin label.
Instead of hitting yet another agree tick mark, I decided to actually post an agreement.
Remember though, that Gap was and I believe is still a rather expensive label for your average person in the UK. Their cotton, back in the mid-90s when I made the jump from Benetton to the Gap (then to Banana Republic)...was excellent. I still wear their tan jodhpurs, which look amazing on me with little black ankle boots. 10 years and not a tear, still holding their form.
But yeah, fashionista-wise, the Gap is the dross now.
I am grateful to them for making simple clean lines popular, after the boxy square shoulders of the 80s, and the polyester dreck which passed for fashion in the 70s.
To go back on topic, I'm glad Lanikai and TeeJay are in agreement about the nouveaux riches and their watches. Just remember though, to some people, you guys maybe nouveaux riches with your PAMs and lovely 007 Omegas, because there is always some person poorer than you.

So you're angry at her because you didn't know her taste?
No, he's angry he had to go back to the attractive sales clerk and like a chump, ask for his money back.

yeah, my dad had an 84 944 and while easier to work on than an ass engine 911, the parts were ridiculously expensive.
I have a friend who is close friends with a rather eccentric millionaire. A few years ago he bought a brand new Ferrari 360 - base with no options so to speak of. He promptly called my friend and informed him that he would learn to change the oil on the car because he would be damned if he was going to pay Ferrari $400 for the oil changes.
Back in the 1980s, someone I knew (ahem) bought himself a Maserati. It had to be serviced every six months -- that is, full tune-up, because it's such a high performance engine.
I forget exactly, but it was well over U$2500 to do so. And a broken part inside (I believe it was an ashtray) cost U$1000. Soon after, the person sold the car, but hey, you live once, right?
Come on, you know you want that Ferrari!

anyways not expecting a big welcome im quite shy and not that bright on computers, so take care everyone and i hope i enjoy the forum as much as you all do!

Victoria! We could have saved him by talking him into a divorce.
Not touching this, George.
(Don't worry. I remember. I would never belittle your pain. I get you)
Now look what you have done!I'm telling you. Miss Understood had better watch out! Miss Take is here for RWG!

But today, I made my way back to Ben Bridge to return the watch I had so proudly bought for her.
Little does she know, it will be a COLD DAY IN HADES before she gets a Cartier Santos OR ANY OTHER watch valued at more than $200.
I dont think I would even offer a Cariter replica. I hope she likes Citizen and Tissot, because thats going to be about all she is going to be looking at!
RANT OVER.
I feel for you, CBR. Giving a gift which is thrown back at our face is terrible.
I've been in that position IN REVERSE with (guess who!) my father, who bought me a lovely, rose gold Mikimoto ring when I was younger, but not at all my style. I had wanted something else and the guy who worked and slaved for our family had his daughter basically snub a gift he gave with all his heart, just because she didn't like it. Ack, I feel so disgusted with myself just remembering this...
My only excuse being is that I had asked him repeatedly for that other gift, which he knew about, unlike you and your wife's Cartier Santos' wish.
There is no moral to the story really. Just to tell you I for one understand.
I do think you're just hot under the collar now, and might reconsider later about purchasing that Cartier. She's your wife, no matter what. And you seem like a great husband, thinking about her and all.
Equally, I hope you tell her how much it hurt your heart and your pride as a loving husband to be dissed in this way. Communication, as I don't need to tell you, being so important both ways.
And hey! It's good you have a place to come to to 'unload', too, right?
