Good luck. You're chasing a pipe dream and unrealistically building people's hopes up, but honestly, I wish you all the best. I know Leonado is going to join this thread at any moment and start shouting at me inexplicably, but honestly, how are you going to do this? Imagine, if you will, a market stall in your local town. Now imagine someone in a different continent trying to organise buying something from there. The stall doesn't have email, doesn't have a phone, doesn't take paypal ... I don't want to sound like I'm trying to shatter people's dreams, but this is an unrealistic proposal. Olreon, what you need to do is make contact with the stall and organise the details before getting people on board. You're guaranteed 10 interested parties, myself included if you somehow manage to pull it off, so you don't need to sound it out first.

piratedzeus Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Pugwashs brothers should do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cjeffers58 Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 If you can get it organized, I'm in. After seeing pugs new 1680, I just have to have one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugwash Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Pugwashs brothers should do it Sure, but at that point we'd charge the same as all the other dealers. Why? Because that's what they're worth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchwatcher Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 Maybe I'm mistaken, but I thought Neil was in contact with the dealer/stall in bangkok that supplies the MBWs. Considering his interest in taking his business to a new level, I'd assume that if he does have access to this source of supply, he might consider handling a group buy. I am interested in a vintage DRSD. I am already LUCKYYY to have the 1680, which is by far the best rep i've ever seen. WW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, then I'm out of this group-buy. Would only consider changing MBW dealer if I made a huge saving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

olreon Posted February 10, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 hello, @ pugwash ok, now we have understood that you are the only one who has a brother in bangkog who is able to get these watches... all the others will never have the privilege to get a mbw direct from the stall! congrats!!!

I think you missed my point. If you can manage this, I'm in 100%. I just think you're setting yourself up to disappoint a lot of people and you're doing it based purely on something Leonado said to show off. I'm not trying to steal your group buy, but I think you're being a bit premature announcing it. If it were truly this easy, ask yourself why Leo didn't organise a group buy all those years ago, or why no-one else has since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point Pug! btw money is not the problem for one specific watch that somebody can treasure for years. ..and these watches realy need a lot of mods to be considered good reps... crap plexi crap bezel insert crap pearl crap clasp crap bracelet and perfect case perfect dimensions perfect case back perfect dials all the other parts need to be replaced!So if someone is a nooby and dont have a good part resource...then there is no need to go for that watch.

Pugwash Posted February 10, 2007 Report Share Posted February 10, 2007 crap plexi crap bezel insert crap pearl crap clasp crap bracelet Of these, I've changed the insert and pearl already, the plexi is dead easy to replace and the bracelet? Mine is on a NATO right now. The only difficult part is changing the crystal and the crown/tube. The rest is ridiculously easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
