Threadcapping and posting Off topic are a time honoured tradition in this forum. It is also a way to BUMP thread topics to get them attention and keep them in view especially for important topics. If this wasn't a flame free zone, someone might tell you to bugger off. Since that was your first post, I guess you couldn't be arsed to Introduce yourself JCC1968 in your own introduction thread, and you just jumped in here. It sounds like you are a wanna be Mod. Good, but be around longer, and earn the respect of other Members, learn about the practices of RWG and earn it. I am only speaking for myself and don't tell others what to do. I leave it to others to Moderate because they have superior knowledge and capability. If someone wants to post their email...it's Darwinian Theory in action. This is an adult forum, but aging is inevitable - maturing is option, and common sense can be a roll of the dice for many. Jus sayin Have a great day all!

GingerApple 7,285 Posted January 19, 2019 Aren. Aren, Aren, Aren. JCC1968's first post wasn't what you quoted. His first post probably said something inappropriate like, 'Hi, I'm also new here. I'm looking to buy a Sub. If anyone has one to sell, hit me up at [email protected]' When I say that his first post probably said something like that, I'm just guessing - because his post was edited by the mods. They removed whatever he wrote and replaced it with their own comment. And it's that comment, the Mod edit, that you keep quoting. I'm just wondering - what colour is your hair?

Glaude 1,615 Posted January 19, 2019 As a gentleman and more importantly a French (yes you do have to specify that in that sentence) I'll accuse myself for my perhaps unclear message to @Aren. What I meant was that you said that the OP was a wannabe mod because, I think, you judged him from the message you quoted. But that message was the mod edit by Mazz & Elp telling him not to post those info in here. As the twat Ginger said, the original message was along the lines of "Hey guys, I have two projects, please help me at this address : xxxx " Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We are like ships that pass in the night. I wasn't judging? I was observing the obvious. I thought it was hilarious. RWG has the best Adm/mods anywhere! anywhere! No harm or foul, nor any intended, but I don't agree.... Ginger is definitely not a twat. Ginger is a CAUC, but I know this is the flame free zone, so I apologize if anyone was offended or misunderstood me, especially Ginger. I know of her delicate sensibilities and know that misunderstood words to her or about her are like crushing a flower. Besides, she isn't feeling herself at the moment. She has the man-flu. So, sorry Ginger, please forgive me. and get better. You will be so much better once you are feeling yourself again! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At which point Legend pulls out his £100k Gen Patek Well, to say that most in the fora can afford to be spending like Legend does is an exaggeration. However to make ASSumptions that the people here aren't the same ones that frequent WUS, TRF, TZ, etc is naive as well. Very few has a large yearly budget for a gen watch, but most does end up spending quite a sum of upwards of 10k (easy) on their favorite Rolexes and the likes... They just don't feel the need to show their to compensate... After all, the watches don't make the man... The OP will not the be the last to make such stereotypes... There will be more to come... And like the OP, they will all learn that these stereotypes aren't often true (Like how all Asians are good in Math) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GC 4,477 Posted January 21, 2019 At 23... I would suggest looking into vintage Seiko chronographs in particular. Start your watch journey down some interesting affordable genuine watches. A rep is a rep... no matter how many genuine parts one decides to swap in. Here are my three favorites just my 2 cents Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
