  1. Base has been acquired.
  2. Richemont should be sponsoring this forum.
  3. I don't know which is worse - Miami Vice IWC or Slytech PAM. Although I do have to say that I saw one of The JayZ AP's on him and it was almost tasteful - diamonds and all.
  4. Other than gold for dress occasions and the issue of fitting a watch under a cuffed shirt I don't think twice about it. I pick whatever watch I want first. The clothes are unimportant. Now I do match my watch straps with my belts and shoes though.
  5. Ultimately, it is the dealer's decision but I think Neil has the right idea. Who in their right mind would take paypal from a first time buyer for the sale of an illegal item? As for the noobs who find the dealers through the forums I have no sympathy. Why? The neophytes wouldn't know about the dealer otherwise. If a noob doesn't trust the reviews by other members than we don't want them here anyhow. Finally, if there is a problem they should be bright enough to know they can publicly raise it on the forum. At the end of the day I don't think there is a way to police the membership effectively. The dealers have to make their own decisions and they should certainly have access to a bad buyers list either on the forum or amongst themselves.
  6. Hey V- Please put this kind of stuff in the off-topic section. Having a child looking over your shoulder is not a good thing - irrespective of the size of the picture. Actually ignore that comment I just noticed you said not work friendly in the listing.
  7. Aah, the limited edition "Presidential Tudor". Just claim it is a prototype.
  8. IMHO, write it off. If you Go through a long song and dance you run the risk they build a file on you. If you win the battle and don't have to pay taxes you may lose the war as an importer of fake goods. You then run the risk you will be strip searched and anally probed every time you enter your country. Im kidding but not really.
  9. I am with relaxman on this one. The guy was probably wearing a GMT - not a sub. But I would like to welcome you to the club of psychotic rep collectors. I never stared at everyone elses wrist before this forum.
  10. I actually thought it would have had to do with slippage as the hands move in sync on the 2836 version. Oliver- Very impressive.
  11. Great watch. I am hoping for one in my future shortly.
  12. Hey guys, I just want to point out the principal characters have long since disappeared from this loop.
  13. Who knows what Chad's intentions are. What I can say is that I have every PAM rep relumed. Without proper C3 superlume your PAM SCREAMS rep every time you get on an elevator or walk in from the outdoors. If you own or have ever owned a gen it drives you nuts. IMHO, as relates to PAM's - no glow - no go. After all, you never know when you are going to have to climb into that two-man sub.
  14. Fisherman- You are so wrong you have no idea. You basically are taking an accusatory stance towards one of very few here who are honest to a fault, spend the time and take on significant financial risk with no financial gain to benefit fellow forum members. If you would like to join that group drop a line to Archie or myself. We would be happy to put you down for a thousand or so on the next project.
  15. V is right so long as it is L Swiss L and not T Swiss T. Look at the bottom of the dial. But on the L Swiss L our modders with C3 is so good that the dial on my GMT matches up beautifully with a set of genuine GMT hands I have.
  16. Totally depends on what brand or watch you are looking for. L Swiss L Panerai use C3 SUper Lume. Anything which says T Swiss T is using Tritium which you can no longer get out on in the aftermarket. Rolex is a whole other kettle of fish. Age of genuine watch has huge impact as well. Which watch are you talking about?
  17. Hey at least you get #000 of 500.
  18. Congrats to you and the sender. Very well deserved.
  19. Remind me why this is coming up again? This was long ago sorted out.
  20. Big congrats and have a great day. And UBI - I see you are a Powermax wannabe. Too funny.
