rc42 0 Posted December 3, 2008 Breitling vs Rolex Whatever the reality however, the Rolex advertising machine is bigger and better than Breitling, the perception of the uneducated majority is that a Rolex watch is the symbol of wealth and success and no arguing by the educated minority will ever change that.

With all my respect to Breitling - I have a few and like it very much - you can't compare it to Rolex. 21j is greatest mov't, I have it on 3/4 of my reps and they works just perfectly.

iabounty 8 Posted December 4, 2008 On a Rolex kick atm - must buy another. Haven't worn this in ages, so figured it was due an outing: If the transmission in my truck had'nt took a shit a few months ago I shure as hell would have bought that from you when it was available.

AllergyDoc 40 Posted December 5, 2008 Decided to wear the GMT-II C today: Sigh. Wish it was that sunny again. We've had 4 straight days of fog. High pressure system sits over the state and pushes the storms up into Washington and Oregon. We saw the sun for an hour yesterday. We usually don't get this kind of weather until Jan/Feb. Very dreary. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AllergyDoc 40 Posted December 6, 2008 I wore this old beater today: Purchased from Amatory.biz 2-3 years ago for $120. Solid mid-links. Fabulous-feeling movement (winds easily, good power reserve, accurate time keeper). Bad date font and mag. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RolexAddict 1 Posted December 6, 2008 Very nice watch AD, dont fix your mind on some flaws, your LV needs just a sapphire switch. Easy. If you collect, you need to buy at list 10 reps to finally, after tweak and mods 5 great time pieces. I speak for me, I have a lot of crap since 2 years, I jump, play and switch with cases, movements, dial, to get a acceptable collection. My collection is not growing, just more accurate.
