  1. Well, I'd like to read some of you guys who've gone to an AD and showed off your rep without being called on your rep. I'll start: Yesterday I went to an AD who sells Omegas, Bvlgaris, etc. Nothing fancy . And this guy was looking at some PO's. As I was minding my own business looking at the Bvlgaris I just her "See that guy? he's wearing the big 45mm version of the PO" I was like 'wtf?' ... I just turned around and smiled and to my horror I hear the guy calling me "Sir, would you be so kind and show this gentleman here your PO?" I was like.. ''sureeee... . I showed him the watch on my wrist and asked me if I could take it off, etc. Like a guy waiting to be shot at, I was waiting with a worried smile while he looked at my watch on his wrist while looking at the gens on the glass display, just then, he tells me: "beautiful watch, I will definitely be taking one" I was like: ... I left so friggin' happy! Later I just wanted to kick myself for doing that, I should've just told them I had to go Anone else would like to share their stories?
  2. PM Sent. Although if anyone else's looking for one you should find it with Andrew (Trusty), Perfect-Clones, Ruby, etc.
  3. Any pics sishac? I'm considering the 39mm Railmaster myself after I get the XXL 49mm version.
  4. Honestly, the longer it takes, the better. I'll get a Santos once I get one of those dials so I can slap it into it, so, while I wait, I'll get the money to buy it, since right now I'm getting an Omega Railmaster XXL
  5. I want one too, I love the Santos but the thing that's keeping me from getting one is the incorrect dial...
  6. *Huge Bump for this thread. Jesus guys, what happened to the project???
  7. Cool! You learn something new every day, thanks for that. Soooooo... let's just say I like a sweeping seconds hand on my watches.
  8. I know about the Quartz Rolex, and although they are really nice I enjoy the sweeping seconds hand more than the one-second interval quartz watches offer. Maybe some day I'll get a Quartz, but in the meantime it's sweeping sec. hand for me!
  9. Audemars Piguet Royal Oak. Gorgeous watch, I'm getting one after I get an Omega Railmaster 49mm XXL.
  10. Yeah, I've been spoiled too by automatic watches, quartz watches are nice, but they lack the sweeping seconds hand which gives the watch a great stylish look.
  11. My best friend hates watches for some odd reason, he says he just needs his cell phone to check the time and that it's unnecessary weight on his wrist but that he likes some of the watch designs... weird... I just look at him baffled.
  12. When I was a kid I always loved the way watches looked, I didn't have knowledge about brands, complications, etc. Just liked the way that big blob of metal looked which could tell time! <--- Anyways my 1st watch was a Casio, a horrible one which I loved, but my dad told me to get used to wearing a watch with a crappy price tag so if I destroyed it or lost it it would be $20 lost, not a more expensive one... So I wore the watch for 3 years until I left it at our locker room at school and some guys ruined it, I told my dad, and got me a SS Analog, a Swatch, not bad, it was pretty sweet. Finally when I reached 9th grade my dad took my Swatch and gave me a Gen. Omega Speedy (the so called 'moon-watch') . I was so friggin' happy! Honestly, I almost cried... sweeeeeeet!!! That's were my real addiction started... I need help... Once you pop you just can't stop!
  13. Found it a while ago too, notice they have a section for Fake Omegas. Thanks for the site, I had forgotten about it. This just cracks me up: Look at #5... If they only knew! ____________ We buy reps because we appreciate the design, we're even anal if they have flaws, we don't get them to get a social position, honestly, all of us can pull reps off, however, if a guy pulls out of a crappy Yugo with spray paint, wearing an old t-shirt with a Rolex Masterpiece on his wrist we can all say the watch is either fake or he stole it.
  14. Omega PO 45mm SS/SS - $3,200 Rolex Yacht-Master PT/SS - $9,500 _____________________________ $12,700 Not counting the genuine Speedy.
  15. Holy [censored]! I'm Aquarius and that thing totally nailed me on "You have an inventive mind and are inclined to be progressive. You lie a great deal." however I'm NOT a jerk, am I?
  16. Guys stop fighting for something that can be settled by getting the info from Wiki: Tourbillon From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A tourbillon (IPA: [toɹ bi ˈjɑn], French for "whirlwind") is a type of mechanical clock or watch escapement invented in 1795 by Abraham-Louis Breguet that is designed to counter the effects of gravity and other perturbing forces that can affect the accuracy of a chronometer. This is accomplished by mounting the escapement in a rotating frame, so that the effect of gravity cancels out when the escapement is rotated 180
  17. I'm still waiting for the Sextuple tourbillon from them...
  18. Sorry to burst your bubble, but once the watch reaches your doorstep, aliens dressed like hookers will steal it... yep, it happens...
  19. $700-$900 will get you a used Genuine Omega, or best case scenario a used original vintage Rolex. Or in our greedy case, lots of reps. It's up to you, but IMHO, don't buy ONE rep for $700+ it's just not worth it...
