Great photos!

With the two "X"-es on the strap I thought maybe you would us a bottle or two of "Dos Equis"...

Come on guys you really are missing the point here.

Of course we will benefit from positive reviews , IF THEY ARE TRUE.

The fact that he got a freebie wasn`t his aim.

He is asking ( in a nutshell ) is it ok to receive something for his services .

I`m sorry. I didn`t make myself clear. I meant to say that writing positive reviews just to please a dealer might not be as lucrative in the long run as it might seem. If course I don`t think Pug would do that.

In the long run, nobody will really benefit from writing positive reviews one after the other in order to receive free watches. If Pug would do that (I know he wouldn`t) what would happen to his reputation on the board? He would lose our respect and therefor not be regarded as a good member by us hens not as a good "sales person" by watch dealers.

I don`t have a problem with that at all. I appreciate that you bring it up for discussion.

I could elaborate I guess, but for me it boils down to whether or not I trust your integrity. Needless to say, you have proven your integrity time and again on this board. Even as a newbie I know that.

I think it`s great that dealers give you watches to review. It means more high quality reviews and photos for the rest of us!

With the arrival of these new watches with the engraving, will the good old MBW`s still be available?

Personally, I can`t stand the engraving.

That version is not accurate at all but the price is ok I guess. Upgrade your membership as in the supporters area there are contact details for DW or David Wong who provides pretty much 1:1 cases for these watches. Warning:Not cheap though!

"That version is not accurate at all". Could you be a little more specific?

I was hoping to stay in this price range ($200-$300). Is there anything better out there for that price? I do of course realize that it`s not unusual to spend many times that price on modding this model to "perfection", but I`m first of all interested in a version as decent as possible at a price within my budget.

Drooling over several members pictures of this model the last few weeks I`ve come to realize that my life will never be complete until I add one to my collection. I`ve been trying to read up on all the 6263 threads in here and have to admit I`m more than a little confused by all the different movements and whatnots. Anyhow, can somebody point me in the right direction. Where should I look if I want a decent out-of-the-box 6263?

I `ve looked at Perfect Clones and their new and improved version. Is perhaps that the way to go?

Thanks in advance. I`ve learned so much in the few weeks I`ve been a member here.

Looks like elprimerozen found the source of my photos....I only wish I could tell you if its gen or not....the watch isnt mine....just something I dream of having....

Here is the link to the greatest GMT post ever....where my photos came from....draw your own conclusions and enjoy the eyecandy....sorry its in French....

Dreamy GMTs....

Thanks for the link!

My favorite is La 1675 :

Unlike Rolecs, I do like...actually prefer the Paul Newman Daytonas, especially white dial/black sub dials. Yeah, it`s all due to Freddy`s many great pictures:-) Any suggestions for who I should buy from?

Yes. They're called CDs.

Funny how everyone forgets Sony invented the CD with Phillips.

Rumor has it that Sony invented VHS, but didn`t like the quality so they sold it to JVC. Betamax never mad it as a consumer format of course, but Betacam was the format of choice for most pros for decades.

Priceless clip. Thanks for posting. I went to CES last week. Let`s just say that the guys from Toshiba didn`t look too optimistic!

Gorgeous watch! My all time favorite. You`re a lucky man

Corgi - I think your wrist is starting to look a bit flabby. Maybe your patience needs a bit more exercise.

Maybe a bit of my collection will help

SEXY! That`s all I can say!

My all time favorite as well. BIG congrats. wear it well

My first wristcheck reply ever!...and since I so far have only one rep, the "choice" was easy: Noobmariner.

Of course you're gonna share with yer old buddy Nanuq right??

Sure!

But seriously, even thought it`s nice to get the goods brought over from Norway every now and then they do sell it here in Nevada too. Possibly not in Alaska? Shoot me a PM if you can`t get it up there and perhaps we can arrange something.

Jeg elsker sursild!

My wife`s cousin just brought me a couple of jars from the old country that are still unopened in the fridge. Yum!!

Did someone say "sursild"? (= pickled herring)

Geez guys..it`s simple: 40 Noobmariners of which 20 are 16610 with black dial, 10 are LVs and 10 are YMs..got it?

The Noobmariner is a 16610 which TTK delivers with an Asian movement.

What about a Pam 112h? The most elegant of all Pams in my book!

Cool!

I still remember watching Magne Myrmo (On TV) winning the last XC World Cup ever on wooden skis in 1974.

As for myself, I`ve worn out a few pairs of Landsem and Bonna skis in my day. Speaking of Ski, I actually grew up 20 km from the town "Ski" in Norway:-)

As a Rollie guy first of all I have to admit the 112h is a beautiful watch! For me it is the simple design..the subtle curves that make it, yes...a sexy watch!

I gotta get me one of those soon.

A-mazing! I can`t thank you enough for all the time and effort you put into this review. Wow!

I never was a fan of the Pepsi GMT...until now.
