SCShrek 494 Posted December 19, 2019 I was at my AD's shop, as I am most weeks, when my buddy there says he has something for me.. just came in so he held it and there are 3 more in line for it after me if I decline. Since it's only the 8th one he has gotten in this year, I grabbed it. Unfortunately, I am afraid to put it on... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Intresting 21,683 Posted December 19, 2019 Wohooo. What a nice present for yourself. Well done. Your quest for a grail sub has now ended. Now you got to get the ARF, ZZF and do a side by side comparison study for us so we can see how superior the gen is. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GingerApple 7,284 Posted December 20, 2019 I'd literally seen dickheads on RWI reject reps over identical rehaut to that. Wankers. It's stunning! That is a total beaut big man, enjoy and get it on the wrist! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flinnt 2,009 Posted December 20, 2019 Yeah post it with no caption on RWI and you’ll get a list as long as your arm as to why it’s not gen like. Congrats. Very nice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

k3rm87 179 Posted December 20, 2019 That's an excellent pickup mate, and the grail of many! This makes me feel better about the chapter ring on my Seiko's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dave47 6,472 Posted December 20, 2019 GREAT PICK UP, mate! Don't be afraid to wear it & prepare yourself for the countless questions about its authenticity. I just ensured mine for replacement value (gen 16233 --DateJust). Of course, I wore it for three years before someone NOTICED it & asked me if I was a real Rollie. Turns out, he was wearing a gen BREITING Navitimer, so we just sat & talked about our watches. I learned very few people actually NOTICE your watch -- which is sad. dave Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
