  1. They are about $1500 new in the US for the non-chrono, non-GMT. Used price should be around $1000. The chrono is much more.
  2. Much less "stupid" than on the Omega 3-6-9 chronos, e.g. moonwatch, PO chrono etc.
  3. Don't blame a watch for a flagging love life. :lol:
  4. Gen or rep? Plenty on eBay from time to time, or try one of the dealers... Homer, narikaa, Precious Time etc are all trusted and good sources.
  5. Suprisingly good. I'm trying to source a gen 42mm dial now for my 4th gen. Still hoping!
  6. God, the new Rolexes make me feel ill.
  7. I have to say that Royal Mail have been largely reliable for me when sending recorded or special delivery. Parcelforce have been a much bigger pain and I don't use them any more. Royal Mail non-recorded can be a problem though...
  8. I like it. Still true to the Omega roots too.
  9. Is it possible that it is there, but after attempted delivery it has been returned to the depot but not yet sorted for collection?
  10. We need to persuade Victoria to take similar pics.
  11. +1. If you don't want to reply, don't reply. Someone else will.
  12. I think they use various movements, Seagull, Lemania copies, Asian 21Js, Miyotas / Citizens etc.
  13. That would sure get a conversation started at a party, wouldn't it!
  14. I was lucky enough to stumble upon TRC / RWG in early December and a few weeks later had read about as much as I could. Ordered a Swiss SOSF just before Christmas and got it in January after the shipping delay. Have never been so stunned by a watch in all my life. I still marvel when I look at it - it will be amazing after the superlume is complete!
  15. Why not, as long as it's serviced properly and has been tested for waterproofness to the required pressure?
  16. Thread useless without a pic.
  17. +1. With the crystal off you can ensure the entire dial and crystal are completely clean, and the AR will look more authentic to the gen anyway.
  18. Not sure where you got that from, there are quite a few highly accurate Tag reps, including the Aquaracer, Carrera, Link, Golf, etc. They obviously just rushed the first generation of GC reps.
  19. There are reps around, but by all accounts they're not particularly amazing just yet. I think I remember reading somewhere that a 1:1 rep is on the way, but I could be wrong.
  20. My personal opinion is that as long as you get something from a reputable manufacturer with a solid top, you are going to get a decent guitar. Yamaha is certainly a good brand, excellent value. I recommend spending the money to get it set up by a good guitar tech, it will make ALL the difference to having it be nice to play. I generally buy used these days, and try in person, and like to buy well-used guitars in good overall structural shape. I prefer having some scratches and dings as it shows that it has been played, and will probably sound better. As long as the neck is straight and the frets are in nice condition, you're pretty much in business and a good setup will have it playing better than new.
  21. I've handled the genuine (all-gold version about GBP25k), and while it was nice, it did not feel like a GBP25k watch.
  22. I have the black and white one, and it works brilliantly... it is very noisy when winding though, there's a loud ratcheting sound.
  23. It does make you wonder about eggs... although presumably you have people transporting rare or collectible eggs.
