Hey Moron- stop asking if it's a gen ETA when you haven't a clue about what the rest of the watch is supposed to look like.

[Akira 0]

Hey ThinkBachs,

 

someone just brought my attention to this thread, so I wasn't replying earlier.

 

Your thread must refer to my comment made on MR's sales thread

 

$238 for UPO with Swiss ETA?

If it's really swiss it's the best price I've seen so far from any dealer.

 

 

So here is my answer...

 

Just don't expect others to do your homework for you- use the forum search option, and do a Google Image search. Most of all, stop asking if a crap watch like the one posted by Marvelous is a gen ETA.

 

I don't know if you fail in the English language, but my statement wasn't a bit referring to the accuracy of the

UPO compared to the PO.

 

I simply shared my thought, that the price was very good for a UPO with swiss eta...assumed it is a swiss eta you'll get.

You know the stories of people getting a clone, but paying for swiss.

The picture may show a swiss eta, which doesn't mean you'll get one if you order it.

 

The definition of Moron in this context: A person who asks if a watch has a gen ETA, but fails to know anything or very little else about what should be correct on the watch as a whole.

 

 

I bought the 'happy feet' version as well as the 'correct logo' version....

I bought them from Mary and I bought them from MR....I know about the flaws and I know about the mods.

My PO is at Ska's place to be relumed, insert and pearl modded and for new AR.

All the main flaws on the PO, besides the HEV.

 

You may think of me as a moron, but haven't bothered to read my UPO reviews and the gen comparison

to Sconeheads PO.

 

If you have a personal problem, either PM me or at least address me in the OP.

 

Just because this is the nuthouse, doesn't mean you can bring your aggressions here....you behave very well

on RWI and would never pull that shit there.

Just because you can rant here, doesn't mean you have....

 

This is not the place to pretend to have balls....no one is questioning you have some.

 

 

I reckon your aggression comes from the recent events, so I let that drop...

 

So, next time be fair and contact me via PM...

If you need to get your frustration out, post some hardcore racists joke in Sec 8...I hear that's not against the rules

 

But never try to pull that kind of stuff again with me...

 

All the best

Akira

I think my post made my intentions pretty clear...I wanted to settle things with TB in a constructive way.

I hope he answers the same way.

 

 

If I wanted good old RWG fun I'd have handed him his ass for his disrespectful OP.

 

So I don't need any other member to provoke some flaming fest.

I did not want to provoke anything, mate. Sorry if I did not express that clearly.

 

However, if it was really only about your comment on an eta movement, I believe you are right and tb was a little off track...

What does ETA stand for ?

 

ETA SA Manufacture Horlogère Suisse (ETA SA Swiss Watch Manufacturer) designs and manufactures quartz watches and both hand-wound and automatic-winding mechanical ébauches and movements. Commonly referred to as ETA, the company is headquartered in Grenchen, Switzerland and is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Swatch Group Ltd. ETA traces its roots to the 1793 founding of Fabriques d’Horlogerie de Fontainemelon (FHF) by David Benguerel, Isaac Benguerel, François Humbert-Droz and Julien Humbert-Droz.

Although ETA specializes in ébauches, ETA is capable of making all components necessary for a completed watch and is therefore considered a manufacture d'horlogerie. ETA movements and ébauches are used both in watches of other Swatch Group subsidiary brands and in the watches of competitors.

Awesome! In this forum you truly do learn something new everyday. Thanks, Luth

What really makes this work, is your avatar image right beside the text. It's like reading a semi-animated comic book. I love it.

 

 

 

It doesn't fucking matter if the watch has a gen ETA if the bezel insert still uses the "incorrect 10"

Personally I think TB is a cool guy, lol.

 

Look at that avatar, it screams cool guy. ha ha

Yep, and either I didn't quite get it, or he just found the League of Acceptable Questions (a strong competitor of the League of Justice) :supermod: .

Quite indifferent for me as I posted a question in my 2nd post, got "noobed" and decided never to ask anything again...

I’m still here though, as this is the best watch (also flaming and boobs) forum ever. :P

You guys rule!!!

Sorry you got flammed on your second post, that's not acceptable even for an ass like me. If I did it let me know and I shall repent my sin.

 

Glad you hung around Mik.

Long deep breathes are needed, think about what is annoying you, write it down, read it again then delete it.

 

I believe this method works but I have never tried it, personally I say what i feel.

 

Do you feel better TB?

You pulled my mask off my German friend, lol.

 

Yes, I shall recruit and train my forces from around the world to combat the Legion of Justice.

"Some times I wear my watch in the shower ........."

 

I confess!

 

When I was a teenager I used to wear a Timex in the shower when I masturbated.

[ThinkBachs 1]

I was really pissed about something and this puked off my keyboard.

 

I looked at the M dial more closely and it's really not bad, but the 12-9-6 fonts don't have the nice pointed corners I've seen on others. I just get so frustrated when people post comments on threads posted by dealers saying it looks good when it doesn't. It also annoys me that there are dealers who post crap for sale on the forums hoping someone will buy them. IMHO, being a trusted dealer on this or any other forum should mean that you bring something to the place. Searching out and offering the best is a service. Offering a $69 watch that screams Seiko knockoff with a Rolex crown on it is a slap in the face.

 

As a side note, I'm more than happy to take a thrashing when I deserve it. No apologies for my opinion, I just see it as a learning experience.
