Thanks Victoria, I could have not hoped for a better response. Much appreciated. The lady in question is very petite herself, midget size really so good to know also that a larger version won't make it look like Flavaflav got himself a date......not that I look anything like Flavaflav but still....anyway. Thanks heaps!

Blunt. Unless you want to be all James Bond like and use it to slice your lemons....

Any kind soul to point me in the direction where to get a decent one? Want to see if she likes it before getting her a gen 'cos thats what she's worth.....burp.

Yes, and so is mine!

Nostalgia-2000 and they are 16.75 shipping included.... The rep (the one on the left ) is not an old factory (unfortunately) but thanks for the 'compliment'.

i got zee rep of "zee bay". Cheap too, 14.95. Was surprised at the quality too, especially the color is very similar to the gen.

The rep is a TTK GoldBag YellowCloth Limited Edition handpicked cherry. Quality is absolutely excellent. No major difference on the dials as both are genuine. The lume on the rep is "sun colored", as in yellowed out but I find that making it all the more authentic. Waves on the co-axial though are more prominent as Omega changed that, along with the longer hands and applied hour markings which makes it a different look all together.

New Bond vs Old Bond (added gen "weathered" dial, gen hands, brushed links and aftermarket insert). I really love both. The gen because its a a gen of course and the rep for its "ruggedness" which I find gives its character. Think, HEV position and CG aside of course, that it stands up to the gen pretty well. Once I get the find the "picture taking tree of patience" I'll up some more... Cheers. B

Someone please tell me there was a a picture of an ugly old couch in that post somewhere....

Hate to burst your bubble but thats not a gen. Bezel is slightly misaligned but the lume and the the fact that the digits are too italic are dead giveaways... Hope you didn't pay too much for this.

read the feedbacks on both the SMP's he's sold. One got a refund as it took him to long to send it and the other one got a completely different watch. He does seem to swear high and low though that they are infact as in the pics, HE correct, serial numbers, numbers on the band etc which would indeed indicate these are some obscure remnants of the famed 'closed factory' cases at least. BUT, he somehow claims this whilst the actual watches are send directly from China with him in the US so how he knows what they're actually sending is his guess as much as it is the buyers. Interesting to see what this turns out to be. I have always believed that somewhere in some forgotten corner in some shop somewhere there's a box full of these great early SMP's, so who knows? Its not like they only made 500 of them or something.....

you look better with red hair...

seems odd indeed to be stuck there for so long.....

a picture speaks a thousand words....

800 bucks? On this?
