2 of each version for me. Final PR is on the way. The 99.5% matched set is complete. Needless to say, anyone who previously had indicated wanting to buy should do so.

Driving me nuts too.

And I am definitely in for a few 7mm's.

What is a 295c crystal?

It could be a while before I own this one. I refuse to own watches affiliated with cars unless I own the car. It's kind of reminiscent of "My parents went to Cancun and all I got was this lousy t-shirt. I do appreciate these prototype pics though. It gives you something to salivate over.

Cuke- You are ahead of me. I am holding off on sending mine for relume until I have the date font fix. It is a great rep though.

Can I buy the claims. Obviously this is written in a nice anonymous manner due to one or two individuals. Hey guys, pay up.

Well, all the see undersea cable companies are ramping up to achieve the same redundancy available in Europe and the Americas so hopefully China will weather the storm better the next time. Andrew- Thanks for clueing us in.

Wear them well.

Welcome. I trust our mods will ensure that this place remains a happy medium between RWG 1 and TRC.

And do you think every elitist ***hole wasn't once a noob. Step up or step out. No point in whining like a little bitch. :pg_bubbles:

I have sent upwards of 20 packages containing multiple rep watches back and forth to Canada from the U.S.A. over the last year. No problems. As Ziggy says, it is not illegal to buy in Canada.

Neither can Ubi.

Congrats. It "sounds" great.

In that case only buy reps wear you can swap a genuine dial. TT- By the way, the cottage cheese analogy is horrifying, but pretty damn funny. On a more practical note, just get out of there while it is still dark.

You are absolutely right about steel and anodizing. I was keeping it simple. Steel is usually blackened with black oxide. If you apply it hot you get a shinier finish. If you apply cold you get a flatter finish.

The Ti an coating which was often used by PAM is available through Finepics. His person uses the proper beadblasting process to get that slight shean that gen PVD PAM's have. Palpatine has an excellent person as well. You will get a great and durable product but it is closer to black than gray. I believe some PAM's have the same coating. On Davidsen he has a color similar to Finepics but somehow it does not have that shean. I have utilized the PVD services of Palp and Finepics. Davidsen's I have not. And no, reps from the larger manufacturers do not have a proper PVD coating. Usually it is anodized. PVD coating is expensive.

I get down to Palm Beach several times a winter so keep me in mind as you zero in on a date. If it is when I am down there I vote for Palm Beach - the middle.

Stunning. Really nothing else to say.

I just heard from him and the seconds at 12 version will not be out for 3-4 months.

You're collection just gets bigger and better. It is good to know someone is nuttier about these things than I.

Congrats on 1,000. More importantly, thanks for a lot of good posts and being one of a few people actively trying to improve their reps and providing the opportunity for others to do the same.

Omega Reign- If that is truly how you feel whay are you here? By being here, under your theory, you are as guilty as the guy selling fakes on Ebay. You ever smoke pot or trya recreational drug? Congratulations you are a drug dealer. I hope you will stay true to your theory and disappear since you wouldn't want to support the replica industry. Oh yeah, it is clearly a fake and I hope David got to Ebay before it was too late.

Looks great. Wear it well. Was that the stock lume or did you relume?
