highoeyazmuhudee Posted May 29, 2011 Report Posted May 29, 2011 i love/hate waiting for watch parts, myself, got some gen 580s coming. you?
subbiesrock Posted May 29, 2011 Report Posted May 29, 2011 Wheaton's famous 328 (as used in the rep/gen comparison is on it's way, should arrive in the next couple of days... Hitting refresh on the tracking site hourly, To warrant starting a post called 'waiting by the mailbox', you must be seriously excited...
JoJo35 Posted May 29, 2011 Author Report Posted May 29, 2011 Yes, I'm waiting patiently, although it's not expected until later in the week or even early next week. Stilty would be proud, and especially the Master. The very last of my frankens...
lhooq Posted May 29, 2011 Report Posted May 29, 2011 The very last of my frankens... And I was just about to guess you'd bought a genuine Paul Newman!
freddy333 Posted May 29, 2011 Report Posted May 29, 2011 I hope whatever it is is worth the suspense.
Watchmeister Posted May 29, 2011 Report Posted May 29, 2011 And I was just about to guess you'd bought a genuine Paul Newman! You should have guessed that years ago. I am eager to find out what gets JoJo excited.
JoJo35 Posted May 29, 2011 Author Report Posted May 29, 2011 It's amazing that I can still get more excited about a "build", as opposed to just going out and buying a PN. Owning a terrific genuine collection is fantastic, and in no way am I discounting that, but this "last build" has a special place in my heart. First of all, it was put together by my good friend RG, and it was only possible because of my friend Stilty supplied the much needed movement spacer. Other than the movement & eta hands, everything else is genuine... a true "ultra" franken Secondly this really is the end of the line for me regarding frankens, since progression upward over the past five years has left no other alternative than to search for that "perfect" gilt, PN, MilSub, or Comex, etc.. name your poison! lol This particular piece had been waiting patiently after years of research led to purchasing parts from all over the globe. Finally, I got the chance to put everything together in a big box, and send them up for special treatment.... Now the wait! Thanks everyone for your comments, I promise not to tease too much, pictures will be forthcoming
Cats Posted May 29, 2011 Report Posted May 29, 2011 Would be nice to see what you are teasing about. Must be a great watch , i almost can't wait Carpe Diem Cats
JohnCocktosten Posted May 30, 2011 Report Posted May 30, 2011 This is, without any doubt, one of the dumbest threads ever.
