craigb Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Well guy's i thought i would help take the stresses and straines away from everyday life with a good old laugh. Here is my very first rep, bought in 2001 for the large sum of 10 pounds. i now use this beast to learn how to mod, you will see that i did try to mod the cg's, Hence the word try. all im going to say is that wm9 need to be worried because i think this is the new super rep.

kamber Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 I can beat that :-) My Folex is a beauty! Just you wait till i get home! I have a worse one than that I got from a chinese shop in spain many years ago that one came in the box! Lol it was a shiny crappy plastic tacky horrible box, god knows what i was thinking mind you i was 19-20 then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigb Posted February 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 i wish mine had come in a shiny tacky plastic box. if i remember rightly mine did come in a box, but it was cardboard with a rolex sticker on it.lol. i want to see some pics of your folex. never mind who has the best rep. i think we should start who has the worst rep!

kamber Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 I'll post the really crappy one when i find it (its in the spare rooms somewhere! still in its plastic blue shiny box with "Rolex" written on it LOL!) I'm home and just got my canon EOS 450D out mounted the 580EX Flash on it and a 77mm IS lens, not even used the 77mm macro filters i have yet, perfect time to do so :-) haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamber Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Right here it is! Now bear in mind I have an even better example of a folex somewhere! This is a real beaut! I know I'm going to get bombarded with PM after PM wanting to take it off my hands, but I'm sorry guys this just isn't for sale :-) The chrono pushers both actually unscrew! They however do not function (the sub dials are just there to make it look like a chrono, its really not! Just in case you needed me to tell you that ;-p) Now it MUST be a genuine example because again surprisingly it does NOT tick tok, it has a smooth second hand sweep and for the love of god its an automatic, god knows what's in it! I think I'll rip it apart when I get bored one night and see! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigb Posted February 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 oh my god.....i didnt think they was ever made so bad. i bet you thought you was the daddy with that on your wrist when you first got her. super reps dont come any better than our two little beasts. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamber Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Believe me the one in the shiny blue plastic box is worse! I know its hard to comprehend but it really is! I don't think I actually wore this beauty out (Thank god!), when I got home (and sobered up) I realised how bad it really was haha! I might post this up in the Rolex section FS lol see what the guys in there think.... (maybe not) p.s. I just checked the Lume, it is NON EXISTENT and the bezel is fixed it doesn't move. I'm still actually amazed they went to the trouble of making it so the chrono's screw out and its apparently sweepyness on the second hand, at this level, what with the rest of the craftmanship thats gone into producing this fine example you would have thought the cheapest movement possible would be in it! Just you wait, I'll open it up and there will be a gen ETA inside Haha how funny would that be.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigb Posted February 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 you have got to drag the other one out.... realy it cant be worse than that one. do you remember how much you paid for it? other member's need to get their old dodgy ones out. then we can decide who has the worst rep! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kamber Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 I can't remember how much this particular one was, wouldnt have been more than 40EUR though! Bargain haha. The other one was I think 20-25EUR that one does tick and the bracelet on it is so very rubbish its unreal, I got that along with an "Amani" one which was equally as shocking! Hell yeah worse reps rule :-D, the trouble is most people won't have them if they did have them in the first place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigb Posted February 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 they do still have them, just too ashamed to show them off, i thought i was going to get ripped into for showing my old dog off. i had an amani watch from spain, it stopped working on the plane home, couldnt handle the altitude.lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
