KrisOK Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 Hi folks, I just registered and I thought that I'd pop in here and say hi. I'm fairly new to the rep world, just bought my first rep (Breitling Navitimer World GMT) in early April. I bought before I found any rep sites, and somehow got lucky. I didn't get scammed, and the watch was a good quality rep. It was a bit more expensive than Andrew sells for, but I guess the same version. Then I found RG and have been hanging out ther since April. And found out how much I DIDN'T know about reps, and watches in general. Since then I've increased my rep count to 14. I constantly feel like a kid in a candy store: I want one of those and one of these, and one of those, and I just HAVE to have this one.... Here's what I have collected so far: Breitling Navitimer World GMT Breitling Skyland Avenger Black Steel Chopard Alfa Romeo Chrono Graham Chronofighter Oversize IWC Portuguese 7 Day Longines Master Chrono (On the way) Omega Gen 5 PO 42MM Pumpkin Omega Speedmaster Date Pam 292K (On the way from Andrew) PAM 359 PAM FER0014 Ferrari Scuderia Flyback Chrono Porsche Design Flat Six Chrono (On the way from Andrew) Tag Heuer Monoco Steve McQueen Tag Heuer Ladies Link MOP Dimond (Wife's) I've been trying to collect watches that are quite different from each other, instead of focusing on a single brand. Anyway, today I thought I should start branching out and try another forum. So far in my browsing, RWG seems to have a different flavor than RG does, maybe a bit more casual. I hope to become a regular around here, and please excuse me if I still pop off with a stupid noooob remark from time to time. I've found the learning curve to be fairly steep.

modelizer Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 Welcome to RWG - the best horological information vault on the interweb IMO. I like the way you have swan dived right into this insanity! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 Very nice, and welcome to the forum! There's one piece you're still missing in your collection. The badass Seiko Monster dive watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrisOK Posted August 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 Very nice, and welcome to the forum! There's one piece you're still missing in your collection. Actually I didn't list my gens. Nothing very expensive (Over $500), but I have both a black and an orange Monster, as well as some very nice Citizen Eco Drive watches. In fact my Skyhawk AT is my reference standard for setting all my reps. Love that radio in it that connects to an atomic time source.

KrisOK Posted August 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 LOL! OK Gotcha. The client I was working at this afternoon blocks streaming videos at the firewall, so I couldn't follow the link. Heh, I STILL like my Monsters though! They may not be a Ploprof, but they are great for the price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanuq Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 I think you'll find many of the NON- ass monkey Moderators here also have a PloProf. Nice choice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
