BigsCG 0 Posted December 16, 2012 Hey Everyone - I've been lurking since October, made a few purchases & posts, and thought I would officially say hello. CONUS - Eastern Tennessee Reps BK PAM111 v3, Toro BR-02 (in transit), and M2M PAM202 Slytech so far Wish List for 2013 BK DSSD, Vintage Style Panerai, JLC Navy Seal, RWG Blue, SeaGull 44mm SG012, Magrette Bronze, Gen Fortis B-42, and 10 or 40 others I've been trying to decide on a gen under $3k for about 5 years, but could never pull the trigger because the value vs price never felt right. Reps seem like a much better way to spend 3k. I may end up w/ a few genuine after all is said and done, but it's not likely now. :boohoo: I'm so glad I found this place. My wife is not. Cheers! -Caleb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigsCG 0 Posted December 16, 2012 Almost bought a maurice lacroix retrograde a few times for $2700 (so glad i didn't now), so the wallet is still full at the moment. The wife however, doesn't know what to think, now that I'm getting packages from China and Columbia (Ach Strap).. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BigBuys 0 Posted December 17, 2012 Another welcome from Tennessee, Nashville area. Glad to have you aboard and I feel sorry for your wife, and your budget. I too have a love for Maurice LaCroix with one Gen and one Rep. The Gen is a Pontos and the Rep is a Masterpiece GMT Flyback. Wish it were reversed. This is a great place to learn and these guys are a brain trust! You will enjoy it. Let me know if I can be helpful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
