Well, actually they do exist in the gen world.... Rolex Prohunter

This has not left my wrist since I've got it (3 weeks ago).

Actually this is near the office I work at. The shop exists and I think you can trust them.

It is even missing the center seconds hand

On the last wedding I went to I wore Narikaas Noob Yachtmaster. Got a lot of compliments. A datejust or daydate would be a good choice too, I think.....

And good news for my european friends: Naarika carries this one as well (asian version) and ships from UK. I received the watch yesterday and I'm quite impressed with the quality and feel. So thanks Naarika for the shipping and great service.

Oh yeah guitars and watches. Used to have guns too, but have given up on those (just no fun over here in europe). Of my 7 Les Pauls these are my favorites: My Rossington signature My '69 Goldtop

I bought a Gibson Les Paul '68 Custom flametop copy from a chinese dealer about one year ago (can't remember the website though). Since I gig frequently with my band I planned to use it as a cheap stage guitar (I'm kinda reluctent to put my Gibson Historic Reissues in front of a drunken rock / punk audiance ). The transcation was very easy. I emailed the seller with some custom mods, it took about 10 days to finish the guitar. The price was ridiculously low and they took paypal. They sent a photo of the actual guitar before shipping. Just be prepared to ask a LOT of questions and demand a actual photo before you buy. The finish of my guitar is immaculate with great overall workmanship. I think it holds up to any Epiphone. The hardware is somewhat crappy though (the tuners, tailpiece and bridge lose the gold pretty fast and the pickups are p.o.s) but can be easily replaced. It makes a great gig guitar but it just can't touch my gen Gibson Historics (which cost about 20 times as much).

Sorry to hear of your loss. All the best to you and your family.

Hi Tostef, mit Andrew kannst Du absolut nichts falsch machen. TTK war für mich auch immer OK. lich willkommen.

My favorites: 2003 Gary Rossington Signature (the best sounding and playing guitar I've ever had by far) '69 Les Paul Goldtop

Well, actually I do own a few originals (2 '59 reissues, a Gary Rossington signature, a '78 Les Paul Standard and a '69 Les Paul Goldtop). I'm looking for a cheap stage guitar and rumors are that there are some replicas which are far better then the epiphone clones....

Hello there... Does anybody have a lead on really good replicas of Gibson electric guitars ? I'm looking for a good copy of a Les Paul Custom... Cheers

Should be possible. You might have to change the hands, though.

Congratulations & all the best to your son and your family.
