My girlfriend offered me my first gen, the last co-axial SMP.

My favorite watch...

And Last but not least, An old factory clone ETA 2254.50, the one in the thread "Black SMP pro to good to be true"

And do you know what I'm wearing today?

My black rep...

I was sure that the day I'll have a gen on my wrist I'll stop wearing anything else.

Well, I was wrong...

This hobby... RWG give us the top of the rep world

Modded, best out of the box, AR, ti, 1.1, Ultimate, etc, etc.

With all this knowledge shared and this possibility to have what we expect ( The Euromariner is an exemple) I have to admit that I'm a bit disappointed with my gen.

Of course everything is Okay, the pearl is centered, HE valve is not dead at ten, there is 120 clicks and all that stuff will last, but in my hands I have not something very different than my reps.

Visually, the quality is not better...

So, I won't change my hobby.

I'm happy to have this gen but not sure that I'll buy another one before a long time.

So many close to perfect reps...

I'll post pics of my collection very soon...

Congratulations, the genuine is in my eyes a far cry from the reps, I have never come across one that has the fit and finish and the genuine look. Can leave this in a box for safe keeping and wear it on special occassions!

Thanks, that's exactly what I intend to do.

Congratulations on your SMP dude. Wear it in good health... I'm looking to buy this gen pretty soon too. :D

Thanks!

Ok I have to say something new.

Now I'm wearing it for one entire week and think I should change my subtitle.

I really love it and I'd like (even if my rep is pretty good) to buy a gen 2254.50.

Genuine are the ultimate stuff, but on the other hand this hobby is very ADDICTIVE.

I have to be on RWG each day otherwise my wrists begins to scratch me :Jumpy:

As I said before, I'm rebuilding a 259980 super rep.

Gen on my wrist or not, I'll finish it, waiting for the last gen parts: dial and hands.

Gen bezel and crystal are already on it, can't wait to see the result...

I too, took the plunge on the 2220.8 0 yesterday... Just posted a short pictorial on it earlier. A real beauty I must say, it really grows on you with each passing moment of wearing... :wub:

Good luck on your Super-rep! ;)

Nice angle you took the pic from dude!

One thing to note, don't you find the single-sided ar is a tad too light? :p

Did you saw the pics directly on the thread? me not.

I couldn't so I removed them, I don't remember how to do that and where is the tutorial for uploads on RWG...

You're right mate, too light it is...

Here you go, mate!

Though the single ar is light, i feel that it is subtly doing its job... reflections aren't that bad... hmm.. Maybe it's due to the curved crystal... ^_^
