TWP, that's a good idea--a U.S. Stock New Years Sale! The guy I ordered my Tag SLR from said it's shipping from Malaysia, maybe they aren't affected too badly there.

Scored this from another member on RWI: TWP modded 127E with Swiss movement and Strap Culture strap; my first rep. All that waiting really paid off! The size suits me perfectly, I'll probably be ruined for lesser watches now. I guess I'm not the first guy who came here indifferent about PAMs and ended up with an ultimate Fiddy.

Dammit, I really wanted a UPO.

My new Fiddy, of course.

It's good to be a man.

I ordered one of these--I'm not really a Tag fan or a Benz fan but the watch looks great and the price was right. I love the shape of the case with that bracelet.

GQ is slightly biased, since all of those marques just happen to buy a full-page ad now and then. BTW, I saw an SS Santos with a gold bezel at an AD, HOLY CRAP it is huge! I know it comes in a few sizes, do any of our dealers have the monster size one?

I used to be a die-hard Scotch man, but Patron Silver converted me for good. I'd like to branch out into some lesser known labels though. Same thing with cigars, you can't just smoke Montecristos all the time.

Still no All Black....?

Who has the best shipped price on the "real" UPO? I'm a little confused as to who sells it and who doesn't.

Taco Tuesday!

Platinum is noticably whiter than steel; I don't think it's hard to tell the difference (in person) at all.

Natto!?! I could eat nothing but sushi for the rest of my days and be happy.

Last night it was Habana at the Lab in Costa Mesa. After a couple mojitos, it was Roasted pork with collard greens and plantains, washed down with the house sangria. I will probably get a frozen pizza tonight, so it all balances out.

I think you're better off returning it, as the Silix version is a better deal for $175 with a better logo and correct lugs. I'm curious how the "escrow" service from DHgate works out, not sure how guys like this make a profit when they are obviously not shipping the same watch from their photos.

Maybe in these shoes: elevators

I could wear it while I drop bombs maybe.

Here are the reps: Dealextreme I haven't got a chance to order anything from these guys yet, but this is the ultimate site for cheap Chinese crapola of all sorts. Shipping is included on every item, and they even have a forum!

That SUCKS! Some people think "if a little is good, then if I use a lot..." and some, like my own sweet mom, just don't have a good sense of smell. Nothing worse than walking into someones trailing cloud of "fragrance"! Has anyone ever smelled Angel Men? Don't. I tried some out in a shop and ended up having to throw out the shirt I was wearing--it never washed out. This reminds me, and I'm not going to scrounge up the link since I'm at work, but there is a video commercial (I think it's German) out there for a bottle of vajayjay-scent. Not a cologne, but something for dudes to carry around sniff when they want to be super gross. Maybe you put it on your finger?

That ginormous trigger is the stop-start button. It's made so that a bombardier can operate it even while wearing heavy cold-weather gloves.

First things first--you have to be the kind of guy (or gal) that could feasably sport a multi-thousand dollar watch. If anyone takes notice the first thing they are going to do (assuming they care) is mentally total you up--your clothes, car, job, background, accent, poise, shoes--and make a snap judgement. This is probably 10 times more imprtant than your recessed pearl or hands too short or even seconds at 3 (the horror!) Now, assuming they didn't just mentally say "HA who does this guy think he's fooling?", here's my guess about these folks: 1) Your average Gen Owner--will be stoked to find another watch dude 2) Your average Gen Owner with their gen right next to your rep--still won't care, unless your rep is REALLY bad see #1 3) A Gen Rollie Geek--cover it with your cuff, 99% of all Rolexes are fake you know. 4) A Rep Rollie Geek--says "Oooohhh, is that an MBK!!??!!?" 5) Your average AD Sales Clerk--will open the safe for you and probably give you a happy ending in the back room to make a sale 6) AD Watch Inspector--Are you TRYING to get busted? 7) Your Average Watchsmith--don't let them open it The hot blond who can sniff out money--see #5, replace "safe" with "skirt" 10) Your boss who knows you how much you make--good luck with that raise, he now thinks you are a corporate spy

Thats so weird; I was going to post the exact same thing but when I googled Peter Cushing I got sidetracked reading his bio. Then I forgot about it and went to lunch.

I love my fake car, of course it doesn't have modern safety features but in that regard it's comparable to the real deal (1958 Porsche Speedster): I consider it to be about as safe as my sportbike--that is to say, not very.

I remember these fake cars from a while back when the Chery qq came out as a blatant rip-off of the Chevy Spark. GM actually proved that doors from the QQ fit a Spark with a perfect seal (so yeah, I guess you could make a franken compact car). My favorite is the Shuanghuan CEO, which is almost identical to the BMW X5 from the rear. It can be ordered from the factory with BMW-style headlights, grilles, and EMBLEMS. I guess that's the Ultimate version?

I was thinking about this lately; you can only really wear one watch at a time. I think I would be happier with fewer watches if they had fewer flaws; I find myself wondering which fake I would be comfortable wearing around which friends. Like they would ever notice a dagger shape or a datefont!
