  1. My old watch winder just broke down so I ran a search on ebay and there seems to be a bunch of great options...I just dont understand how they are so cheap? This 8 winder + 4 holder which normally retails for close to 900$ has buy-it-now for 70 bucks - i dont understand? Are they cheap asian knockoff watch winders or are they the same quality products that retail for close to a grand? Would love to hear from some people who have bought these winders on ebay, any input would be greatly appreciated! I got this one for 50 bucks, I dont think it gets any better than that...

    Last night I was kind of disappointed because the lume is lackluster...I assume the sandwich dials lume is much better but still I thought it would be a little better than it was...Other than that this watch is awesome and a great value buy @ 130$

  3. Andrew...Ive never bought a rep from anywere else...Gotta pick your dealer and stick with them, and andrew is a great one at that, he stands behind all of his products and makes purchasing an enjoyable proccess - this is my 8th watch from him and out of the 8 ive only had a problem with 1 (my tt daytona) but he fixed the problem at no charge...This 005 is the cheap version w/ synth sapphire and 21j movt, got it for $130 I believe and it was well worth it!

    Heres a black croc strap I just put on

    Thanks for helping me in choosing my 1st pam, you guys pointed me in the right direction and I absolutely love this watch! Thanks again

  4. Thanks guys!! Heres another interesting diagram I found in regards to regulating time, although its a little confusing:

    Im not that concerned either but my daytona running 4 secs a day fast is just enough to annoy me...i want it to be +/- 1sec is which is within COSC specs...Also, does anyone actually wash there watch with warm water and soap?? I would think soap would be harsh on the SS...

    Since this is applicable to all auto's perhaps a moderator can move this to the general discussion section

  5. Awesome...thanks for the replies guys, interesting so this does indeed apply to all auto's.. - my daytona has been running around 4 seconds fast a day, gonna give this a try and see how it works because i dont want to open the caseback as it has been enduring my daily showers/handwashing with ease, dont want to ruin this because i know once i pop the back it will not keep the water out as good...

  6. I was just wondering, because I know with gens this trick actually works, but does it hold true to our rolex reps?

    If your watch is running a little fast OR a little slow, Rolex suggests the following:

    When you take your watch off at night, lay it in a position that assists in adjusting the time without the help of a specialist. If your Rolex is a little slow during the day, lay it flat, with dial up as this position tends to gain a few seconds during the course of the night. If the watch is running a few seconds fast, lay it in a vertical position with the crown down as this position will tend to lose a few seconds per night. If your Rolex is running several seconds fast per day, lay it in a vertical position with the crown up. This position tends to lose a few more seconds per night that the previously suggested position.

  7. I hate to do this on a random thread but TTK if you could msg me in regards to you AP RO I have a question for you, your inbox is full...Thanks!

    Were are you seeing this GMT w/ 2836? If your actually looking for a GMT i suggest you check out by-tors recent guide...If your looking for a "Noobmariner" than run a quick search for that theres a bunch of great info on these forums, the real noobmariner does not have ETA movt tho, but it is very accurate visually...
