KB Posted January 11, 2013 Report Posted January 11, 2013 WE HAVE A WINNER! Sneed12 An RG modder got the nod for his for his excellent tutorial...ETA 28xx keyless works repair Winning entry...... http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/154983-official-watch-bitz-competition-thread/?p=1210044 It is with great pleasure that I announce a very generous muti-forum competition which has been devised and fully sponsored by member Offshore and his Watch Bitz Store.... The Watch Bitz Tutorial competition! $1000 in prizes- U$500 in cash and $500 in Watch Bitz tools credit. To encourage our budding repairers, and thank our more experienced ‘smiths, we are running a competition over the next 6 weeks, for the best repair/DIY tutorial. This is a multi forum competition with entries being taken at RWI, RWG.bz, Rep Geek, Homage forum , and RWG.cc. The best of the entries will be stickied on all forums, with acknowledgement of the producer and his home base. Rules are simple. Prepare a tutorial on some aspect of watch making or modifying work and post it here. It can be written, photo essay and/or video. The competition will run until February 15. The entries will be judged by a team made up of a moderator appointed by each forum, and one overall winner will be selected, based on quality of instruction and presentation. The tutorial must be the writers own work, however previously published tutorials, may be republished , with or without enhancement. The purpose of this thread will be for open discussion on the above competition, any thread crapping or any post that has no reasonable bearing on the topic will be removed. Offshore will be available to answer any questions within this thread and later I shall put up a mirror thread (with link) which will be for entries only. No discussion will be permitted in the actual competition thread and will be removed regardless of how relevant. All entries can be posted here...... http://www.rwgforum.net/topic/154983-official-watch-bitz-competition-thread/
Archetypal Posted January 11, 2013 Report Posted January 11, 2013 Cool idea - Good luck to all entrants. Thanks to all involved in conceiving this one...And thanks to all participants.
Rolexman Posted January 11, 2013 Report Posted January 11, 2013 Cool and a great gesture on Offshore's part.
offshore Posted January 11, 2013 Report Posted January 11, 2013 Thanks guys, I hope we get some superior tutorials from this neck of the woods. Thanks to the admin and mods, especially KB for their help and encouragement in setting up and runniing this contest. Lets hope we all get something special out of the exercise. Offshore
krpster Posted January 12, 2013 Report Posted January 12, 2013 Great idea. Good on ya for supporting O/S. Should promote some pretty great tutorials.
martijnp Posted January 13, 2013 Report Posted January 13, 2013 I definitely read all tutorials because I'm a noob in watch making and modifying. Good luck to all!
the_rymeister Posted January 13, 2013 Report Posted January 13, 2013 Great gesture offshore would be great to win this as the tools bought from offshore in the past have been amazing, good luck everyone
offshore Posted January 14, 2013 Report Posted January 14, 2013 With how many posts can one enter? Never thought about it. If someone wants to do a tute and only has one post, I see no reason not to accept an entry. Experienced members should be ahead in knowledge anyway, so our newer members need all the encouragement we can offer. O/S
KB Posted January 14, 2013 Author Report Posted January 14, 2013 O/S is there a limit to how many entries one can submit? Ken
Rolexman Posted January 14, 2013 Report Posted January 14, 2013 O/S is there a limit to how many entries one can submit? Ken Yeah that is what I meant. I didn't formulate it very well.
offshore Posted January 14, 2013 Report Posted January 14, 2013 O/S is there a limit to how many entries one can submit? Ken No Ken, The more the merrier. O/S
offshore Posted January 25, 2013 Report Posted January 25, 2013 Not too may yet, One can only hope all the contestants are slaving over a hot computer. Surely someone needs a grand in cash and kind? Offshore
simon05 Posted January 25, 2013 Report Posted January 25, 2013 Well done, & thank you Offshore. This will undoubtedly bring lots of invaluable educational information to the fore, & hopefully enable novices like myself to attempt things that have been a bit too daunting, previously. BTW, I ordered one of your new bracelet & strap kits recently, & it's excellent. Thank you for a great kit, & excellent speedy service. If this competition is as successful as anticipated, I'll no doubt be adding to my new tools in the not to distant future
KB Posted January 25, 2013 Author Report Posted January 25, 2013 Get those entries in folks that's a big juicy prize on offer. Ken
KB Posted February 3, 2013 Author Report Posted February 3, 2013 Is there no one on this site who would like to win such a handsome prize? C'mon guys get some entries in! Ken
Rolexman Posted February 4, 2013 Report Posted February 4, 2013 Will enter some of my old ones tomorrow.
