Too big becomes when it will start looking silly on your wrist..

Tantalium is bloody HEAVY... almost 2 times the Stainles steel. New one.. is it from king? I know it is the new one because the dial has the accurate 'tick' next to 12... This is the only improvement over the old ones.. All the other aspects went to hell

If you mean express mail like EMS usually there is no problem in UK... Probability of your packet to be caught is 1 in 30 (my case)

WOW.. I want one..

At the moment probably the 250.. Newer 196 case and dial are bad, so why not go with the 250?

Please Mods move this to the Watch repair and upgrate.. It shouldn't be lost in General Discussion (my fault posting it here).

I wish everyone was like you Rob

It is 26/22 and you will be able to use 26/26 or 26/24 as well. The 24/24mm will be too small at the lugs.

I agree.. PAW straps are not so good quality leather hide (but made ok) but with a nice buckle.

Exactlly !!!! Welcome

Great review my friend.. I have definately noticed the two cons you said (holes and edge finish) and I will try to improve in the next production. When straps are hand made they usually cannot be 'perfect' but they have that vintage feeling the straps had many years ago. The Florence strap is by far better than the Sicily and Venice, with a softer hide (so it is a much softer strap). For a vintage look those two are the best but as a strap the quality of Florence is better than those two. Personally I wear the FLorence many days of the week..

I am definately not a Rolex expert but if this is a rep, whoever did the vintaging is a professional. THis really looks like a 30 year old watch...

Very nice indeed

Thanks for your kind words.. I will keep the tutorials coming adding more stuff in the way. All my cats are heavily feeded.. My 3 male cats in Greece are overweight because the only thing they do is eat and sleep in a king size bed while we are away

I wish everyone was like you.. Doing a little research before sending his watches to someone to mess with them (in a good or bad way) I think sometimes things are so bloody obvious that if people want to see the tree and not the forest they deserve to be burned. There is no foul play.. I am a graphic designer as well and the pictures are NOT modified in any way.

Yeap.. I am starting to feel the vintage stuff. Maybe we should do a small meeting to show me the vintage pieces and convince me to spend $$$$ on them for real vintage stuff

To be honest Davids cases look to be something between the luminor cases and the 201/A case closer to the logo i must say...

Hahahah.. he is the Metta leather guy He is member f RWG as well

Excellent work indeed

It still says 100MB per file. Same as the one I use.. The whole video would have been 1 giga...

It's not synchronisation.. It's tricking the rep manufacturers

I have never spend more than 130$ on a strap. (and this was an OEM kevlar) I guess 200$ is my limit but I find straps I want in better prices

Buy the cheap Asian version instead and try to put a new movement inside. No reason to buy the manual.

What you said in inaccurate.. The Panerai sites pictures are wrong (well they are from the prototype). David's have the CORRECT hands (127 style). The tapering hands are used only to the prototype and they are NOT correct.
