  1. For all of you guys that voted for Obama, I hope you all know he is in favor of raising taxes. He was interviewed and the interviewer told him that past presidents were in favor and cut rates i.e.(Kennedy, Bush, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush) and your in favor of raising taxes, actually, you voted down the decrease of Capital Gains Tax...What is your response? He mumbled and stumbled, and quite honestly, I choose to keep my hard earned dollars. The man has no history or stature as a Senator! I voted for McCain. Not my ideal candidate as president either. Where's Colin Powell!
  2. Offshore and RWG Guest, It is all too easy to get caught in insider trading. I am in the securities business, and no, I am not a trader, but rather a planner (buy and hold). Let me try to educate those who may ever wish to trade on insider information. First, Insider trading is when a person with inside information, acts upon a "tip" or knowledge, that is not available to the public, or better said, non public information. When an average or worse yet, a person who has never traded stock, purchase a large number of lots (bundles of 100 shares), that triggers a red flag. Most investors will purchase blue chip stocks, when a purchase of a little known company is exercised, and you have little investment history or experience, that raises red flag #2. The next question, how long do you keep the stock? If the first two weren't enough evidence to charge on insider trading, this part here is your "finger print in the crime scene." Shortly after you have purchased the lots, you quickly turn around and sell those shares, in a matter of minutes, hours, days, or months, is how you can be spotted very, very easily. Now, if you don't think that the SEC hasn't already flagged the company, and the clearing firm doesn't have their "policeman" looking at this, you are a fool, and you will be busted. All the best.
  3. I went to this guy in Jan to have him take the crystal out of my Breitling 6.75 sec@ 3, and he wouldn't even touch it. He put his "eye wear" on and told me this watch sucks, it was very cheaply made, etc. That said, I would give him one more try on another watch.
  4. I have the Lange 1 from Narikka, and it is magnificent. it has the incredible detail, the only thing is the date font is a bit narrow, but seriously, who cares.
  5. I like to know what dealers discount too. I live two miles from there.
  6. I love the curve end strap. Can you tell us a little more about that.
  7. FXR said it dead on! First reason I purchased my rep is to coordinate with A) My lifestyle My wardrobe. I wear suits during the week, so I purchase my watches based on my clothing color. I do not purchase many reps, because it will loose that luster of owning that watch. As for lifestyle, I live in the south loop of Chicago, a trendy area, so I coordinate my watch to my surroundings. That may sound superficial, but I wish to make sure my rep corresponds to the genuine accuracy. Which leads me to my second decision, Rep accuracy. I do not wear my rep and flaunt it as real and brag about my wear. I wear it because I like it, but while that may sound hypocritical, I do enjoy the accuracy of the watch. Third and most important is the quality of movement. I so badly wanted the Navitimer, but after exhausting research, the movement was flawed, and I decided I didn't want the headache. So I chose the 6.75, because of the better movement. Now, I am in the market for 2 brown/burgundy strap watches with white face. One for my suits and the other for nightlife lifestyle. And that is how I choose my reps.
  8. lan, If your going oral, your not pushing the limits, kidneys work over time, plus it gets filtered twice before the massive growth begins. You need to go direct, I'm talking blood stream big. You know...Like Roger...and, um Lidocaine.
  9. It seems we are all fixated on eta and 7750 movements, as most chrono watches require those movement. I haven't seen many detailed remarks regarding 17J & 21J Japanese Movement. As I browse our dealers' sites, I notice many watches with 17J & 21J, with and without "working power reserve". Now, I wouldn't be asking if I hadn't done an exhausted search on both sites, RWG and RepGeeek. Many watches such as Glashutte, JAEGER LE COULTRE, Breguet, AUDEMARS PIGUET, etc., all have watches with the Jap/Asian movement, and without fully understanding if these movements are competent, it has prohibited me from purchasing them. Does anyone have a reference web site detailing these movements? If The Zigmeister says two words, "Their Great!" that would work too.
