the_rymeister Posted May 1, 2012 Report Posted May 1, 2012 Hi all I'm looking into buying a white dial watch as I have a beach wedding to go to in august and really not sure what watch to go for, I've got 7" wrists, normally wear upo 45 or rollies, but up for any ideas, was toying with the new 42mm explorer. please share you white dials for inspiration Thanks in advance
david.the.marvelous Posted May 1, 2012 Report Posted May 1, 2012 Well, what are you going to wear for the wedding? Are you going naked, or are you wearing a suit or tux?
the_rymeister Posted May 1, 2012 Author Report Posted May 1, 2012 Sorry bud vital info It's an all white beach wedding, going to be in the high 40's temp wise so guessing white tailored shirt and linen trousers
Faber Posted May 1, 2012 Report Posted May 1, 2012 not the best pic...and the best rep but i really like my u-boat white dial...have used with a nice pilot strap...good combo...
the_rymeister Posted May 1, 2012 Author Report Posted May 1, 2012 Some lovely watches guys, I love the iwc watches especial the f a jones jkay only thing is I don't think I can pull off a $20,000 watch
Tom Hawkes Posted May 1, 2012 Report Posted May 1, 2012 That's a gen Jones, right? The hands on the rep are too short..
Jkay Posted May 1, 2012 Report Posted May 1, 2012 I could re-read his post but I don think so?? I'll check.
Tom Hawkes Posted May 1, 2012 Report Posted May 1, 2012 You don't have to search for it. I was just curious. All the reps I have seen had the hand not even reach the markers..
Jkay Posted May 1, 2012 Report Posted May 1, 2012 You don't have to search for it. I was just curious. All the reps I have seen had the hand not even reach the markers.. You're right. The white FA Jones on WatchEden has hands which look 2mm or so shorter. Still, an excellent watch for $108 USD
Tom Hawkes Posted May 1, 2012 Report Posted May 1, 2012 Still, an excellent watch for $108 US Sure, but stuff like that annoys me to no end. They put their time and money on replicating something and then are either too lazy or too ignorant to simply check if the hands are even remotely long enough. Or worse, do it deliberately. That one or two mm too short hand would remind me of that lazy ass rep factory dude whenever I check the time.
the_rymeister Posted May 1, 2012 Author Report Posted May 1, 2012 Guys are the date just 2 reps accurate ? Like this one http://www.1-pc8838.com/r41djs00101-oyster-fluted-white-sticks-asian-28362-p-9804.html Like the look of it
ninjagaiden Posted May 2, 2012 Report Posted May 2, 2012 V happy with DJII. I'd go for the Jubilee bracelet.
the_rymeister Posted May 2, 2012 Author Report Posted May 2, 2012 Could you post up a pic of your dj2 buddy
ubiquitous Posted May 2, 2012 Report Posted May 2, 2012 A couple of white dials... Not quite white...
Tom Hawkes Posted May 2, 2012 Report Posted May 2, 2012 I'm going to start the "Occupy Ubi" movement. I hope you have plenty of space on your front lawn .It's just not fair that 1 person holds all the rep and franken wealth of the community.
ubiquitous Posted May 2, 2012 Report Posted May 2, 2012 I really only have just a few watches- 10 or so and they're all continuous works in progress. But I do my best to take each piece as far as I can take it... 1
