  1. Whooah...let's see the lume and wrist-shot.
  2. Check my Noob Guide pinned in the Introductions section and look for Thomson Highway. He's the show in EU.
  3. Great read!! Guys like Freddy are definitely pioneers in the mod-Arena!! Thanks for this post.
  4. And after some research...and a response from The Zigmeister the Master...I'm not the only one who is clueless: 7750a/b, 7750b1, A7750, New Asian 7750, Slow/Fast beat 7750...WTF??
  5. That's it TJ...wreck the grade curve for the rest of us...
  6. I take it she's better than that cheap pastic digital you had on before.
  7. Welcome Rob. You've come to the right spot. If you are wondering where to buy quality rep watches from, or want to know anything about watches in general, you have come to the friendliest, cooliest, and most knowledgeable watch forum around...gen or rep. Glad to hear you found some affordable stuff you like from the sites you indicated. I took a quick look and noticed that their prices aren't outrageous at all...but never took a close look at the quality. What you will find here, is the best quality available at any price range...with reasonable service expectations. To hit the ground running, check out my Noob Guide.
  8. HAH HAH HAH HAH...uuuuh yeah...I'm going to have 50 watch capacity...but I'm going to stick to 5 keepers. GOOD LUCK!!!
  9. Thanks folks. Glad to do my part for the forum. I'm not sure what's happened with Victoria. Things got a bit negative/critical for her at one point (which was sad considering how much she was offering to the forum) and that led to a short term hiatus when family came to visit...and then...>POOF<
  10. No wonder we're confused on this one. 6-10 variants? That must mean the factory has 6-10 different shifts of workers. We know about your success rate-post-service...so that is good to know that even with the differences and issues...there's a good probability of "life". Thanks for the insight!!
  11. Thanks so much for this The Zigmeister...pulling through with the Master's knowledge like always!! I've been seeing the B1 designation being used every now and then on the collector sites...so I guess it still begs the question with the collector's on what the heck they're sticking in there...either slow beat or high beat seem to be the answers we're looking for. I was thinking of buying spare A7750 movements to keep on hand for when you service my movements in case you needed parts...but now I'm not sure if that's a good idea if the parts in the current movements are defective and need replacing themselves. Are there any options that are reasonable to consider (given you've found ETA parts are a real crap shoot to fit in if they can be at all) or should we just do a rip and replace with a new movement and pray?? I found a decent price on ETA Valjoux 7750's...but I think I need to buy about 100 of them.
  12. We aim to please. I should add something about that usps/can post/local carrier takes over when in the resident country. It's in the guide somewhere...but buried under details likely.
  13. Best solution to the addiction is to post pics of your V23 powered 6263...which I just saw in another thread. Ok...you're certified.
  14. Agreed. When you get used to looking at pics of the rep...looking at the reversed seconds disk, square-er case and other differences just seems off. In the case of PAM homages, these seem closer to an acceptable homage to me...as they are identical almost aside from branding.
  15. I didn't even realize this. Crap...it seems only yesterday I joined the board and had Victoria nudge me along the right path!! Thanks RWG for a great and knowledgeable place to suck my time!
  16. I'm not sure what part of that scenario is supposed to be crazy... Great scores. That black dial is nice!
  17. Great news...and for sure Lani is the King for advice on combos...Brother's got the full range of straps and watch heads to do any kind of comparison of which combo is best.
  18. I was around back in those days but lurking not posting. Allergydoc is wrong. Nothing has changed in the rep world in 2 years...it's all the same junk. Grab a big bottle, and a lot of ice...lots to read!
  19. Another long time lurker...new time poster! Welcome aboard to the world of posting.
  20. Dream on...dream on. I don't know how the new Hublot full ceramic case is...that might be the closest thing we have now. The gloss case on the IWCs is too wrong of this kind of watch to me... I wish they would get it right...but I also wish they would make a solid and reliable secs@6 7750 movement...World Peace, private island...
  21. Hi Back...and welcome aboard to posting. Keep active...it's what keeps this board alive and hopping. Post a review of your PAMs!!! We don't get that many PAM reviews here. And...go out and buy a couple 24 watch cases...the first 19 will only blossom into the need for more.
