  1. Pretty much all come from the same factory. QC with each dealer might be different though, as well as their willingness to help you if you have problems with your rep. I have one and I love mine.
  2. Did not know exactly why it quit working, but I sent it back to my dealer and they fixed the problem. Really did not ask what was wrong, but got it back 6 months ago and it is still working perfectly. Knock on wood... I do not wear it as much anymore because I favor the chrono reps with big mm faces. Don't hesitate to get this rep though. I'm happy to have it in my collection
  3. Just wanted to let you guys know that Tag Heuer no longer sells the white chrono with the brushed bezel. They replaced that with the white chrono with the polished bezel and tachymeter on the bezel... which is listed as a Fantasy Model by By-Tor in this review
  4. It sounds like you guys are a fan of the Dell product and what they offer, but I am asking about strictly the 2 laptops above in comparison...
  5. I am trying to purchase a laptop notebook for my girlfriend. She basically only needs it for wireless internet and maybe a few work assignments for school. Also, some music playing here and there... but mostly for internet surfing and chatting on AIM. She is not worried about the Hard Drive capacity, or the size of the screen or even the battery life. Basically just speed, and the ability to multi-task online wirelessly. It seems the Toshiba is a better deal, but Dell laptops have been the only laptop she has ever used... The players are: 1.) Dell Inspiron 1501 Notebook (DNCWHA1) with AMD Sempron 3500+ 3500+ / 2.0 GHz Processor / 60GB Hard Drive / 512 MB DDR II SDRAM of Memory. Windows Vista Home Full specs here (However, the one I am looking at is 2.0 GHz, not 1.8 GHz): http://reviews.cnet.com/laptops/dell-inspi...61.html?tag=sub 2.) Toshiba Satellite L45-S4687 with 1.73 GHz Intel Core Duo processor T5300 / 80 GB Hard Drive / 1 GB of DDR2 of Memory. Windows Vista Home Full specs here: http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=5978910 Thank you guys!
  6. I received my brand new BCE from my dealer today after I mailed back the DOA BCE I got from them. The new BCE is running smoothly, however, I am questioning the bracelet. Is the Asian BCE bracelet the same bracelet as the Swiss BCE bracelet? It is the Pilot bracelet, but this new BCE bracelet I got feels lighter and cheaper than my other one that was DOA that I had shipped back. So I am wondering if they shipped me the Swiss BCE, but with an Asian version Pilot bracelet. I can't recall how the first one felt, but it definitely felt heavier and stronger... Thank you guys!
  7. That is the VERY FIRST thing I replace when I get a new Tag rep. I replace THAT specific spring bar with a 9mm of better quality. The ones that come from the rep factory are pure junk!
  8. I ordered my Breitling box from Silix about 3 to 4 weeks ago and still nothing. Very slow...
  9. I am in the process of talking with my dealer about a replacement. It seems that they are going to either fix the problem and send it back or send me a brand new one. So for the time being, I would rather not take the caseback off... just in fear that I don't trust my own hands and that I may screw something up.
  10. I have had this rep for about 4 months now and it decided to die on me today. I was at work and my friend noticed that my watch was not moving. I told him that I did not wear it at all over the weekend and the power reserve was depleted. Well, I am clueless on why it stopped working. It has the Swiss ETA movement so it should be more reliable than this... I have wound it for 20-30 times, shook it just a tad... Nothing. Any thoughts guys??
  11. Well I guess I spoke too soon... mine just quit on me today. I was at work and my friend noticed that my watch was not moving. I told him that I did not wear it at all over the weekend and the power reserve was depleted. Well, I am clueless on why it stopped working. It has the Swiss ETA movement so it should be more reliable than this... I have wound it for 20-30 times, shook it just a tad... Nothing. Any thoughts guys??
  12. School this noob... Title pretty much says it all. Is the "New Asian 7750 Movement" the same as the "Asian 7750 with 28,800bph" the same movement? I want a Tag Link Chrono with the reliability of the New Asian 7750 Movement, but I want the 28,800bph.
  13. Like I said in your other post, I have the same exact watch but with a white dial and I absolutely love it. Enjoy it in good health!
  14. I own this rep and it was my very first rep purchase. That was also a great review and accurately displays what I was thinking in my head as I wear this watch daily. However, my rep does indeed have the engravings on the endlinks! I guess I got lucky with my dealer... It is a funny story on how I got in to the the rep game. I purchased a gen Tag Heuer Link Calibre 6 and I kept scuffing the bracelet as I would wear it to work. I finally decided that if I could find a rep watch that looked like my gen, I would pull the trigger and buy it to wear just so if I did scratch or scuff the rep, I would not be angry. To my surprise however, I did not anticipate how good of a watch this rep would be. I wear it day in and day out and it takes the abuse. The quality is impeccable and the compliments have been generous. When I did not know any better and I had my rep re-sized at a AD, even they were fooled. I am a proud owner of this rep, and agree that it deserves more credit and attention.
  15. I have never seen the lume on a gen BCE. I am assuming the lume is pretty bright on the gens? If so, I may have to get my rep professionally lumed by The Zigmeister
  16. I have that watch but with a white dial... gen of course. It's a beautiful piece of art. If it is still in good condition, I would buy it. Absolutely brilliant watch.
  17. I need to return a watch back to B9A in China. They obviously had to clear customs to the USA, in which they smuggled the watch inside speakers. My question is... what do I need to do to mail a watch back to China? Can I just wrap it up, put it in a plain box and ship it? Or do I have to smuggle it as well? What carrier can/should I use? I would just like to use USPS... Thank you guys!
  18. haha yeah I know what you're saying... I know it looks pretty sketchy since it was my first post. I just got in to the whole rep game. I spent most of my time over at Rep Watch Group until I found this site and I am hooked. frankpower, give me a PM if you want to hear anything else from my experiences from B9A.
  19. I have dealt with Brand9Avenue for my reps and they have been pretty good. The watches are quality reps and good prices and a main reason why I buy from them is because I can use my American Express via Paypal with them! http://brand9avenue.com/catalog/index.php?...2c4c6724dd623dd
