I've have to look into those. Thanks.

In addition to watches I am obsessed with fine shoes. Among my favorites are: Salvatore Ferragamo Cole Haan Allen-Edmonds Santoni Magnanni Marmocs Grenson Loake Barker

Not to mention this is a rep that has been repped. If that ain't super rep status I don't know what is.

Very hot car. It just keeps looking better and better with age.

LOL!!!!! Thanks Chief, I feel so much better now. I'm going to dinner with the wife and I think I'll have...the chicken!

The only thing good on the Silix dial is the logo. Good - Joshua/Andrew UPO with the logo from a Silix dial. Better - Joshua/Andrew UPO modded with gen dial and other gen parts. Best - The genuine Planet Ocean.

This topic has been beaten to death around here. Most members insist the "dots" are correct as this is the type you normally see when searching for pics of the gen. Some of the old time members who aren't really around anymore will tell you that back in the 70's, Patek made custom watches for the "special" customers. If you were willing to drop that kind of coin, you bloody well could get any dial you wanted. The rumor is there were gen PP's with the "grid" style dial. Personally I like the grid style better but I am bias because that is the style I have. Edit: And regarding the seconds hand, the original jumbos didn't have it but did later on. It's a personal preference, I plan to have mines removed.

If in the US/North America, I recommend chieftang. In the EU, k2222.

Can't wait for this review. My black TT MBW (i'm old school) is with The Zigmeister right now getting serviced along with a gen dial, insert and crown/tube.

Sweet.....

I agree, is that a gen Crosswind dial?

Man I'm digging both of those. Wear them in good health.

If I had those cars I would be MIA also. I love that Jag, is that British Racing Green?

Excellent post.

When I smoke, which is not often, I tend to go with the Arturo Fuente Opus X which is very rare and very expensive. Like the others stated, most people won't have any idea what they are smoking especially when drinking is involved. I would go with option #1, get 2 of them and you should be good.

You always have the coolest watches.

After all that hype Big Brown came in last!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL!!!!!! This is going to be the best answer yet.

If you had a day with the cup like the players from the winning team, what would you with it? I'd load it up with my favorite watches and take Pugwash quality pictures, then fill it up with some Sweetwater IPA and get trashed. Then fall asleep with it in my arms...

Very nice, can we get more information on the strap on that 112h?

Awesome watch my friend! Ofrei has the correct pushers if you're interested. At least I think they're the correct pushers....

Let me add another thing here. My Aquaracer sits together with my TAG Link in the winder so they both wind together. Both are A7750's and the Link stays wound where the Aquaracer runs out of "juice". I personally think I have a somewhat bad movement and like I said I plan to transplant an ETA 7750 into it. The movement was serviced by The Zigmeister when it was modded.

I have a TAG Aquaracer that does the same exact thing. I wear it, it's fine. I put it on the winder, it's dead in 2 or so days. I've already modded the watch so I'm just planning to have a ETA 7750 transplanted into it.

Nice watch, we have lots of happy UPO owners around here. You CANNOT use the gen bezel, but the gen insert will work. The great part is the bezel and insert come together as a package, you cannot buy one without the other. I used to use my gen bezel minus insert as a paperweight and now I can't find it. At the very least, get a gen crown and crown tube. Some UPO's have been prone to the crown stripping.

Is it a pocket watch movement?
