Made In ...... The Best Flaws In A Rep


Recommended Posts

Posted
I always liked "SHITNERLAND" or "[censored] IN HER HAND" as those reps are affectionately known.

Pugwash already beat me to the "Crazy Colon Dreams" which I proudly own. Those were the days. It's damn tough to find decent misspelling outside of my posts anymore. I remember when a single trip to the offers section would give you a choice between Officne, Automatc, Poascre, Galena, seanaster, and Polex.

I found this one on Timezone. Seems like the artist has taken the instructions "Breitling, on bridge" a bit too serious: :D

There are a couple of really "charming" mistakes out there... The infamous RWG1 watch with "LimitEd Edition" and Breitling Navitimer Fighters "with Messers1477" are some of them.. I have even seen a "Sunmariner" some time ago! :)

The best was the inside of a back lid saying

It´s great ´cause it´s inside and only you know. :Jumpy:

When you open a Roll-Rep it´s laugh or cry anyway :whistling:

On the topic of Chinese translation errors, I buy a good deal of my woodworking equipment from Taiwan and China. Some of the instruction booklets can be quite amusing. One quote I remember was "To adjust table height, loosen this screw" They translated it as "To adjust table height, loosen this fuc*"

The "R10" and "Lonnon" seen sometimes on world time watches are among my favorites :bleh:

Someone once told me that they saw "Ralgex" on the back of one. I explained that it made sense...........as you'd need the bloody stuff to rub on your jaws as they'd be so sore from laughing.

This one is not a thing of the past. I opened my new case lid just yesterday and saw this. :blink:

With Chinese translations, a friend lent me a pirate (Chinese) copy of the Charlize Theron movie "Monster". This was before it was officially released on DVD, and they'd put together their own cover, and had the blurb "Absolutely Hilarious" - for those that don't know, it is a very serious movie.

Maybe it was referring to the English subtitles which looked like it was translated from Chinese to pidgin Engrish!

Peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee... :Jumpy:
