LOL, most of them didn't even function like the Ploprof and were 21J. They were fairly awful with delaminating crystals and all sorts of problems. If anyone bothered to make a decent rep the value of those existing now would be nil. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The V2 was as the gen build with the bezel locking mech, even the 2part case back. That was super rep. They then had the lite version that came out after with the wrong date wheel placement on the dial etc. I’m amazed we don’t see them again the new colour options are pretty cool. a Re-release would instantly destroy the value of the current reps imagine spending £700 to then be worth £100 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Got it lots worse and be thankful you didnt get bollocked like many others before you mate. So stop being a snowflake and strawberry and get on with life. Besides, you have asked on 2 threads about Geek Time. You are looking for validation to buy from a seller that, you have been, repeatedly, told is not. TD here. What do you hope to find? Someone to tell you its fine? Just buy it if you want to already. Stop wasting time and grow up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not once, but several times. So yes, "conferences are for assistance and discussion." You have been told. Civilly. YET you persist. So just because you are civil in being a dumbass while being pig headed and ignoring advice already given is no excuse. Who needs growing up here. I am not an arsehole, but THE ARSEWHOLE that is happy to crap on asses like you all day long who whine all day when they don;t get the validation they seek. Sad example of a person.

You are right. We all exist here for your entertainment and amusement. In all of 19 posts here you are the epitome of wisdom, light and understanding. Your repeated questions and seeking of validation is for our benefit, not yours, to bring us to your light! How can we be so blind as not to see that! And how dare we, be boring and unappreciative of your contribution! Your not finding many comments of your dealer of choice here is no indication whatsoever that it is not recognised here, but rather a utter lack of awareness of how great your dealer is. Never mind the hard work that the mods and the TDs here have put in over the YEARS in maintaining a successful TRUSTED DEALER list here. No, you know better, because you are YOU. Go get a life elsewhere snowflake. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aramis2288 6,254 Posted August 2, 2021 So [mention=107703]Aramis2288[/mention] , you’ve seen the RWI thread on this one yes?Sorry, after a few days of a relative absence I dropped outta context a little bit. I am assuming that you must be referring to the RWI thread about CF GMT Master II? Sent from my LYA-L29 using Tapatalk 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BoobBandit 1,311 Posted August 2, 2021 All good. Yup, thread next door. Yeah, I’m pretty sure the CF is a good release. If you hadn’t seen the thread on RWI, it’s pretty much summed up with : 1. Lug width is a bit big (doesn’t bother me) 2. Bezel lip is a bit less prominent (doesn’t bother me, hardly noticed) 3; Bezel insert has some variant shade of red from gen (debatable looks fine to me) 4: bezel scallops are too shallow ( to me this is the dead giveaway I can live with it, but if I can mod it I would) 5. best movement to date (although a tear down has yet to confirm almost identical to VR3185) long story short, for me it’s a winner, all miniscule things, one dead giveaway theres a lot of thread crapping and a few trolls on there, so the thread is like 1900 posts. To me the essentials are as stated above. Hope it helps. fin 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
