Thought I'd show these off. Sorry for the bad pictures; wife has a digital SLR but I don't know how to use it Very impressed with all but noob. Can't complain at the price I suppose. Magnification is way too strong (pictures don't do that justice). That and the pearl were the only things I noticed out of the box, minus general cheap feel/construction. Once I started comparing I noticed about everything else is off also. Text at the top, text at the bottom, etc. Rehaut is wrong and wrong angle. Little engraving on the glass is too visible (true for most reps I think?). But, it'll do for a knock-around, which is what I bought it for. Outside of the pearl you'd have to be good to spot it without staring. I'm actually a big fan of the Daytona. Time bomb, I know, I know. But the dimensions are so nice! GMT will be good for travel. GMT is ETA, other two are aisan movements. I'm not a fan of the asian movements, huge tell is you shake them and they sound like they are prepping for liftoff.

Very nice; the real box has a latch (or at least mine does).

Wow, looks great!

Was that reviewer named "bill gates?"

I should have added I lived in NYC for the summer and did listen to it daily; I am no longer there and hence drive everywhere so I don't use the ipod as much since I am never walking or riding. For some reason the audio jack on the iPhone does not seem to fit anything other than the earbuds (it won't fit the jack in my car or on my stereo). They make an adapter though; I just need to get it. Pug do you find it weird to hold it for videos? I was trying to use it to watch the tudors on the subway but always felt weird holding the thing or staring down at my lap. I'm currently using a shuffle at the gym, and then the old school video ipod to watch movies on the cardio equipment... kinda silly since the screen on it is smaller so I need to stop doing that.

Grade on a curve and call it a day... at least the worst will still fail.

I have had one since day 1; it is a great phone. It honestly has made my life much, much easier. I am not a big fan of the keyboard; it is not that great - I can type much faster on a blackberry. If they would allow the user to type an email in horizontal mode (similar to entering URL) that would go a long, long way in my book. That said, I prefer it to a blackberry. As long as I use it the way it was intended - a quick replacement for my powerbook for a fast email or quick google - it is great. No long emails for me. Some people can bang away on it very fast, I admit. I am just not one of them. I use the camera a good deal more than I thought. It is really nice to be able to snap a quick photo of something and send it to a friend. I also use the built-in google maps all the time, it is great to be able to look up a restaurant on the map, then call it to make a reservation, and then get directions. I am an ical addict so having that sync every night is huge. I am also big on the contact database. I also like having all my bookmarks synched. I read many RSS feeds via google reader, so it is great to be able to use google reader mobile to catch up and then have it show them as read when I get home and want to read the rest. The part I never use is the ipod part, I just don't. Same for the youtube. Anyways I can't imagine life now without it; it really is all it is cracked up to be.

I think this watch is fake.... does Vacheron even use that style of cheap-o hang tags?

I think the 111h is the new sub.... each version is really close but never quite right. The print color & distance between the swiss text at the bottom & the numeral 6 are the big killers for me.

I used to buy 1-2 a month, now I buy 2-3 every six months.

Ebay is usually loaded with them.

This is huge for me, and the crown, and the # shape.

I was able to source one through sash for parts but he turned scammer

I believe K-fed had a 200K Jacob a while back at least.

I buy the latest/greatest braun each year and then go back over it with the 4-blade razor to get what it misses (dry). Seems to work well...
