bkatbamna Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 (edited) I was at the T shop in Caeser's Palace. The watches I saw: Rolex EII black dial: Our reps are very close(esp the new ones with the correct hand stack). I wasn't wearing mine so direct comparison wasn't possible. Breitling Bently GT: The gen blue dial has a shiny case and band just like the reps but the other dial colors have a brushed case with a combination shiny/brushed band. Otherwise, they are verey close. Of course everyone knows about the date color and font. Omega: The large Railmaster is a huge watch. Just like the Bently Flying B Also saw the Bell & Ross square watch. That thing is super huge. It makes panerais look small. Also saw a Glasshutte Senator Moon. Beautiful watch. This one or the Hublot BB is the one I would probably get. At the Venetian: I saw a Hublot Rose Gold BB with diamond bezel. Awesome watch, only $15,000. Someone bought the big size Rose Gold BB without diamond bezel in the 5 minutes that I spent in that store. At Tourneau, someone bought a Patek Phillipe while I was there. Also, Las Vegas is full of money. I've seen countless Cartiers, Rolexes. Edited October 22, 2006 by bkatbamna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutchy Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 awesome post, thanks for sharing! Interesting about the Bentley cases as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linder Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 I'm headed to LV in December and am hoping to spend an evening watch browsing. I can not wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuDro Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 I am tagging along with my GF when she travels to Las Vegas for work the week after next. I will also be visiting a dental school over in Loma Linda while I am there. I am now faced with the dilemma of which watch to wear... My choices are: 1) Explorer II - Gen 2) PAM 111h - Rep 3) Breitling B-2 Chrono - Gen (if it get's back from servicing in time) 3) Baume & Mercier Formula S Chrono - Gen 4) Swatch POP - Gen Any thoughts?

Linder Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 You're travelling AND you have a gen dual time movement. hmmm.. I vote for the Swatch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omni Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 I agree with Linder, take a dual time when traveling. And with all those gens you can afford and brag about to the rep guys here DuDro, how about a few measly bucks to bring your membership up to supporter status?

DONE! In addition to my short list above, I also have the following reps... Rolex Daytona, Asian 7750 - BEAUTY Rolex Explorer I, Swiss ETA - NICE PAM 212, Asian 7750 - STUNNING ...I just sold a bunch over at ReplicaCollector to help pay for some school fees. Two more to go!

bkatbamna Posted October 23, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 OK, I went back and really took a close look at the bently. The brushed case bently GT is actually a special edition Continental. The reg GT has a shiny case and braclet just like ours. Went to the Wynn. Tried on the AP Royal Oak in RG and SS. Tried on the Bently Flying B in Rose Gold. Beautiful. Also tried on a A. Lange & Sohne Datograph. Awesome. Also held the Rolex President Platinum, that thing weighs a lot. Oh, and the Wynn Rolex store has 5 SS Submariners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dario33 Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 I went to that T shop at Caesar's earlier this year. I was in there for about an hour... Excellent selection that can't be found anywhere near where I live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hambone Posted October 23, 2006 Report Share Posted October 23, 2006 I live and work in Vegas at Caesars and am constantly in the T shop. This is partly what fuels my watch collcting bug. It is amazing to see how close many of the reps are to the real deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
