yodaddynukka Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 the link works for me. you have to be a member of that forum or else you cant see it. it is very simple to sign up and the admin here is the same admin on that site. luckkky i think is offering 2 dials. if this is the same as your source, as long as the price is decent, count me in!

sydneysider Posted May 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 what forum is it?I thought i was a member in all the existent forums! from what i could tell in the pics luckky/mine, it is the same work, but of course there is no way to find out, i will let u judge when the pics are up. the only thing i am not too happy about are the subdial hands, as they are golden, while i believe the originals are black even on the full gold models. i could be wrong, but it was the same on lucckys models too. i guess, however, that our friends here will help us find a way to change those if they are in fact incorrect.

cskent69 Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 If you have pictures on your computer that show in a window - you can CNTL - ALT - PrtScn to capture the window. You can then do a "Paste as" into Microsoft Paint. Then you can crop the rest of the crap to get a picture - then you can save the picture into an image file that you want. Give that a shot. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomasng Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 $2750 sounds like too much to me when I can get a genuine GP 18K gold chronograph used for $3500. Otherwise, it would still be quite nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Would I be correct in suggesting that sydneysider is naturally talking about $2750 AUD which of course equals $2,110.61 USD? Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise, it would still be quite nice. does 2750 still sound like too much, when you look at the price for a gen solid gold pn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sydneysider Posted May 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 unfortunately I am talking US dollars, as my post clearly showed. I agree, u can get good GP's for that price, you could just as well get a real datejust, etc. but it all depends: if there is no chance u will ever buy a genuine gold daytona, then this is a good option. I dont have the money to fork out for the gen, so this is my best bet, as I have always dreamed of the watch since i saw it when i was younger. Now I am at a point where I own several genuines and can allow myself a toy, albeit an expensive one. This is what I meant: either u appreciate this kind of thing or u dont, its not always a matter of: hey, its not real, too much $$$$. If u cannot afford to spend the money, simply dont. people shouldnt always try and bad mouth other peoples decisions. Especially considering the US dollar Euro rate, it is a good option for me, as I get paid in Euros. I will try the photo tips, thanks guys, should i need any help Ill pm u if thats alright, Robbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonton2000 Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 strange that the pushers are different in the two pics... Yeah but so are the dials, meaning they're 2 different watches so....................i dunno. True or Poo, we'll have to wait and see!

ubiquitous Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 Fitch- Based on the two pics posted, they're also two completely different watches. The first looks to be an 18k 6263 standard dial- This one is signed 'Oyster' on the dial, and so a Triplock crown and screwdown pushers are correct for this one. The second looks like possibly another variation or option to the rep- This time a 6239 or 6241 PN (Exotic dial, non-Oyster signed, and pump pushers). Might just be two different options of the rep available? I dunno.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighDef Posted May 5, 2006 Report Share Posted May 5, 2006 (edited) Damn it, I can feel my skin crawling already for waiting too long for those pics. PM me your IP and I will upload the pics for you. Edited May 5, 2006 by HighDef Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
