Hi George.

Relax.

You are "The Good George" that are a good rep collector, and you might sometime help members buying a MBW, and everybody know you are OK.

The "BAD George" that is mentioned here is the one that is selling "ordinary" Rolex replicas for 3-4 times more than they should cost.

( He is delivering the watches as promised, so is not a scammer, it is only the prices and some of his claims about "special handmade" quality people here on the board feel is "wrong")

He have a "WM9.tv" website where he make "fantastic" claims about how perfect his reps are.

The guy that started this have bought some watches from "BAD George", not you, and is trying to convince all of us how much better "BAD George's" watches are than any we can get from our "cheap dealers".

Unfortunately it can easily be a mixup when there are 2 with the name George, and both have something to do with replika Rolex.

But to you I will only say.

Have a very happy new year.

The same show "Brainiacs" ( British version of "mythbusters", only with more "fun and almost naked girls" ) tired this stuff on a safe. Melted through in seconds, only problem was that everything inside the safe also melted

Received first # 0823 from Ruby, but it had problems with the movement ( normal functions ok, but chronometer stopped if watch was laying flat. Ran ok if laying on side, but a bit hard to use like that)

She replaced it without any hassle, and I am now the proud owner of # 0002

Idiol -> They are just using the special "Breitling Bentley Rep" keyboard

Have you checked the one Ruby sells ?

Bought one PP24 about 2 months ago from her, and it seems OK for the price.

OK.

It's in the oven. (Found a coupe of other dials/watches on the net with same size on the logo, so chances are not TOO bad that it might be original.)

So one Domino's Frankenwatch coming up in some weeks then, but hold the anchovies

Only to wait for the delivery-boy now.

For those who are thinking "WHY a DOMINO's Rolex???", it is only that I already have a swiss Daytona, Sub LV, WM's 1680, Yacht-master, 2 datejust ( one franken, one rep ) and just wanted something really DIFFERENT this time

(Have also other brands, PAM 127+187, Breitling Bentley, IWC jones + Portugeese Laureus, PP24 + Chanel J12 for wife)

And I blame all you (RWI/RWG/TRC) for this. Just 8 months ago I had not had a rep since I got a Rolex "something" in Thailand 20 years ago. ( It was not bad really, automatic and lasted 3+ years with no parts falling off )

Davidsen is one of the dealers over at "The Dark Side" (Replica-Watch.Info or RWI).

You need to register, then look under "Dealers Forum" and you will find him.

You will find prices, pics and contact info there

Hi all.

Thinking to build a "special" Frankenwatch of the Domino's Pizza Air-King Rolex, but would like some advice frist before buying the parts.

Just wondered if you experts out there could say if these parts are genuine or fake.

Or if the dial just is badly redone.

Don't forget that EL's 127 is the only one at the moment that have the updated swan neck movement with much better engraving.

Have the same problem with a 127 ( but mine is a $270 "swiss" version ), and now waiting for the dealer to ship me a replacement CG.

(He already shipped one, unfortunately the one I got was for a 44mm PAM)

I know Davidsen sells good CG's, but they might be a bit expensive for a $100 watch.

Could you post a picture of your GC ?

If it is good, I might be willing to swap with you

Are you in the US or EU?

Fine with me.

Lets do it later then. Will keep my calender "clean"

Good idea also to "push" this on the other boards.

With Dani +you and me, we are 3.

Come on you rest, we need 2 more only :-D

Have no special plans for November, so mostly open. But for me Sundays are best with Fridays also acceptable.

Any comments on my SMP "007 special edition" from Ruby?

Have the HEV in a better position ( Not at 10h position, more like 51-52min position ) and Bezel correctly aligned.

Pearl probably not so good. Swiss ETA.

"Shop tag" and warranty card was included also.

On last pic you can see it even have the very small serialnr in place.

(Ruby took these photos of my watch to confirm that it was one I wanted before shipping it)

6th is a Monday. For me Sunday 5th might be best, but can do Sat, Fri or Mon also.

Chinese food and Chinese reps sound like a good combination.

Count me in for a GTG in Oslo ( Or Bærum, same for me )

I have already met Dani, but would be interesting to meet some of your other Norwegians (And compare watches )

Wife already think I am crazy, so would be nice to see that I am not the only one with this "problem"

I bought a serviced swiss 7750 version with the sec at 6 modification.

I feel this have a good chance to survive for some years, and except for the "pregnant markers" looks very close to the gen.

Hi all.

I bought the SMP 007 special edition ( 40 years of 007) from Ruby at RWI.

The HE valve is in the correct position ( about 51-52min position) and the bezel is correctly aligned.

(But pearl is bad)

Is supposed to have swiss movement. ( Looks correct for me, but I am no expert. I know it keeps good time )

Here are some pics of my watch. ( Is the ones Ruby takes before she ships it to you so you can confirm it is what you want )

As you can see from the last pic it even have the small serialnr in place.

Hope they will make the limited version also, but even the "regular" version is a"must have"

I must admit I expected to get the E0581 case, but I know Jay tried hard to get me a watch with sapphire crystal ( This was what the PANS081 was supposed to have when I ordered and paid )

As everyone probably remember the 581 had some issues with sapphire or mineral crystal, so in the end I agreed that with a discounted price Jay would send me a 127 with swan neck, but mineral crystal.

So guess he just was able to get this E0117 case. Must admit I dont mind. As long as I plan to change the crystal anyhow, I dont think there is any big difference between 117 and 581 case.

Btw. Jay will send me a new correct CG. so everything is good.

Silix may be slow sometimes, but always good service in the end.

Yes. Aware of the "level" wrong way for a 127. Have mailed silix about it. ( Btw. seems like this is an easy error to make. Pam are changing the direction all the time. the 203 have the level "my way" and probably several other models also ).

Planning to get the "high cannon pin"+hands+dial (All with new superluminova C3) + Sapphire crystal from Davidsen soon

Just wanted to show you all what you get if you order the fiddy from silix-prime (pans081).

Since it is cheap, but have a weird description I think some of you have been a bit hesitant to order (I know I was, since glass is described as "plexi-glass" etc)

What I got was the "standard" 117 case with mineral glass, and this is really what I hoped for.

Strap is acceptable thick, and not TOTALLY terrible.

So here are the pics:

Seller have now answered on ebay that he just found out it is a fake, and is trying to inform the bidders. So seems like he is a "good guy" that have been scammed himself

He have now a new ad, with model info.

Ref.case available are 6694, 5500, 16030, 69190,1500.
