FxrAndy Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 The Sea hawk Poll has been deleted by Richard Tracy for the bellow reasons Quote RT Hello,... Yes, I marked that poll for deletion. Reasons; 1. It falls under a total sports theme. 20mm in thickness eliminates it for dress, or executive wear. 2. It's popularity was distracting from watches that could win. If you could be patient, the next watch we are going to rep is in the sports - tool category. Sorry, however if you wish to discuss the watch in more detail.. I am open. Kevin End Quote Looks like all the supporters of the Sea Hawk will have to wait to see if this one gets off the grownd to see if there is a next time!
KB Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 Umm.................I don't see the problem Ken
crystalcranium Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 That's interesting. Thanks for the post in the general discussion section. I voted for the SH and have not visited the polling thread since and would have not have been aware of this deletion. Can those of us who voted for it make another selection?????
KB Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 Can those of us who voted for it make another selection????? I hope so I've voted for about 20 so far, including this one. Ken
dadog13 Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 well...you can re-post it...and if it will be deleted...then you cannot do anythig..or you can just PM RT to see if you can repost it again
retep Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 I hope so I've voted for about 20 so far, including this one. Ken
Pugwash Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 The power reserve module alone makes it near impossible.
Chronus Posted December 7, 2006 Report Posted December 7, 2006 I think this one was the most viewed thread after the perfect sub one.... it's a pity... I was so looking forward to this one!
FxrAndy Posted December 8, 2006 Author Report Posted December 8, 2006 The power reserve module alone makes it near impossible. I thought that you can bolt a PR onto 28** movements? or even the seagull one inthe cheep pam 90s, the one with the balence bridge like a rolex ?

Richard Tracy Posted December 8, 2006 Report Posted December 8, 2006 I too was looking forward to this. Don't worry.. it's coming.. We just have the stack the dominos just right,.. If this watch were first.. the stack be in mis-aligment and the line would end prematurely.. it's too top heavy.. To be honest, our 2nd request was supposed to be Total Dress... but I shifted it to Sports-Tool... just because of the all the drama over this Sea Hawk... So please... everyone.. have patience,.. All good things, that are good things, require Patience, & Timing

All good things, that are good things, require Patience, & Timing There was drama over the Sea Hawk? What drama? Should we have a who wants a dress watch poll? I don't wear a dress, so I'll vote no

I don't wear a dress, so I'll vote no "What drama ?" ?? ....if you only knew... which I think you do Yes,.. the plan was ..1. All Occasion 2. Dress 3. Sports 4. To be decided... I know you are joking about the vote,.. but for those that take everything they read literally,...We don't get a vote on that.... that's something I have to negotiate with Jay...
AMK000 Posted December 8, 2006 Report Posted December 8, 2006 I guess soon we will see many Watch polls duying (... some of them mine too I guess). Well , rules are the rules and there is no point on descructing other members on nice watches which cannot be replicted (with the existing rules). Lets focused on what can be done.
shultz Posted December 8, 2006 Report Posted December 8, 2006 Don't worry.. it's coming.. Waiting for Godot? Don't hope so cos I'm truly a GP Seahwak fan If it would released I even could live with a polished version instead of brushed Ti.....

jsph Posted December 9, 2006 Report Posted December 9, 2006 (edited) RT: sorry... not sure how this is working exactly... but can we get either the rlx 5513 (matte dial, white letter, non-military; classic version) and/or the seamaster 2254.50 considered for this? i think although you could say they might be called sports, it's actually more accurate to call both of those all-occasion watches. not sure what's involved in getting them to be seriously considered / voted on, etc... -- sorry again... went and read your polling-post... i get it... and i guess both the 5513 and 2254.50 are out if there are not supposed to be suggestions for improvements... even though all the existing ones are very close to silly reps at this point... crumbs!

Richard Tracy Posted December 9, 2006 Report Posted December 9, 2006 speaking of which -- there's no better advertisement than eunomian's recent post! please see "world's most perfect...".... http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=17057&hl= .....this is only our first submission, and we do it with momentum in mind at Jay's request. ...knock on wood, we will be able to continue this, which will allow us more freedom of choice.... which is our goal. Regarding GP, however... AMK000 pointed me to this link: http://www.girard-perregaux.com/collection...mp;id_montre=21 Which was exactly the information I requested several times before I had to delete the thread... As you can see there are many in the GP line that are perfect for this first project, .. which I say again for anyone that has not read any one of the many postings I have made on this.. our search for a Never Replicated, 'All Occasion' watch, which shows potential to be a mega seller. Thanks Amk..
jsph Posted December 11, 2006 Report Posted December 11, 2006 thanks again, RT. you're doing the lord's work, as they say. best of luck with this, however it turns out.... jsph

Sorry RT but i must have missed the request for information, i would have looked for it had i known, just out of interest would the fact the it is only 13.50mm and not 20mm high have made a difference on this poll? by the way i have no hidden agenda in the question it is your poll and i dont seek to change any thing, i am looking forward to the next poll so i can submit again. Andy
dadog13 Posted December 11, 2006 Report Posted December 11, 2006 ...i am looking forward to the next poll so i can submit again. Andy if i don't do it befor you... just kidding!

Andy No problem Andy.. we are all busy people... Yes the 13mm would be fine for this submission... and it's not too late to resubmit the model you select.... We have until Jan 2nd... Also,... If you have yet to vote... Please do so.. It's a small but fun price to pay for helping to give our board the power to select the watches we want built.

I think i will wait now for version 2, it would be too far behind the rest to start now, if any one else thinks it should be there then please feel free. BTW i have voted on lots, That sinn is nice!
