ScotchSoda 0 Posted November 22, 2013 Hi guys, I haven't been on RWG so much lately as I have been trying my hardest to stop buying more and more expensive reps!!! My will power when it comes to things I want isn't great. Not always a bad thing...! So anyway it was my 26th birthday last week and I was in London for work - I conveniently walked up Bond Street and treated myself to a new Mont Blanc croc wallet, a platinum Le Grand (not the rollerball pictured below) and a Speedmaster Date. I'll take proper photos with my SLR on the weekend and do a review, but for now I have some iPhone 5 snaps to share!!! Thanks again to everybody on the forum who has contributed over the years, it's only thanks to this forum that I'm as educated on watches as I am and have the appreciation for watches that I do .

marressey 0 Posted November 22, 2013 Waaaaaait a minute here! So you mean if I stop buying reps for a while I will actually be able to afford a gen one I really want?!? That's food for thought right there. One will have to stay away from here though, that's for sure... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ScotchSoda 0 Posted November 22, 2013 Cheers guys I am incredibly happy with it! No matter how it catches the light it's absolutely gorgeous! Fuck me, that's gorgeous! Congrats man!! You're very good to yourself I've been single for a year, I can be good to myself all I wish now!!!! Waaaaaait a minute here! So you mean if I stop buying reps for a while I will actually be able to afford a gen one I really want?!? That's food for thought right there. One will have to stay away from here though, that's for sure... I stopped buying reps month on month and bought new straps to keep me happy for a while to save enough money to justify getting a gen! Worked a treat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Simey83 is right it's a Rotary!! It's a solid 9ct gold Cartier homage, with a croc strap. I don't know much about the model or the Cartier it's based on, haven't had it long!
