freddy333 Posted May 3, 2009 Report Posted May 3, 2009 Being a quartz movement, I am sure it keeps good time.. I think that just about says it all.
Slartibartfast Posted May 3, 2009 Report Posted May 3, 2009 Been trying to think of at least one good thing to say...............but can't!
TeeJay Posted May 3, 2009 Report Posted May 3, 2009 Any time you don't want it, feel free to send it my way, this is the kind of piece I'd really like for my collection
freddy333 Posted May 3, 2009 Report Posted May 3, 2009 rip - Please do not take any comments or criticisms here personally. It is just that high level reps & frankens (not to mention the occasional gen that pops up here & there) are quite commonplace here & your watch, which I suspect you have put ALOT of time & effort into, is, sadly, lacking all the things that most here have come to accept as a minimum standard. However, if you re-do your post to detail the actual operations you performed &/or the parts you installed to produce the finished watch, I think that would receive much higher praise. You might also receive specific recommendations on how to improve your watch's failings (should that be your goal).
rip Posted May 3, 2009 Author Report Posted May 3, 2009 This was more like a joke hehe Found on the bottom of a drawer and remember i got it as a kid once we were on a vacation My very first rep PS: I didn't glue on the logo, it was like that!

Sadly, I don't have any spare cash at the moment, but if you have a figure in mind, let me know, and I'll see what I can scrape together at the end of the month
numptyj Posted May 3, 2009 Report Posted May 3, 2009 What do you bid? May I remind you that this is a VERY rare replica, and therefore the price is quite different from other reps out there... One... Hundred... BILLION DOLLARS!
user2112 Posted May 4, 2009 Report Posted May 4, 2009 how nostalgic. it's the same watch a friend sold to me when i was 13. i almost cried when the crown broke from the stem. i took it to an AD to get repaired and the watchmaker came out from the back to tell me that they could not repair it.
modelizer Posted May 4, 2009 Report Posted May 4, 2009 all you need now is the chief double AR and you're good to go lol! now that's a comment that goes straight to the "classic book"! thanks rip and asim, you really made my day!
jackiespanner Posted May 4, 2009 Report Posted May 4, 2009 Fooking hell Rip, this is a great post that's made me chuckle. Good one m8!
