Jonnybaws 5,280 Posted January 12, 2015 Long story short (who said thank God for that....!!) Love watches, just feel out of love with my stable last year, around August sold one, which lead to another sale, before long, the entire collection was gone... Didn't feel too bad for a while.. but got the urge to buy again, had some funds left over from the sales of previous collection.. did initially plan on getting a handful different make watches, but the longer I thought about the more I was drawn to APs.. still love Pams and Vintage Rolex's but right now, there's something about APs that ticks the right boxes for me.. Since the start of last year, the 2014 AP ROOs have caught my eye.. so, thought.. feck it, if I don't spend the money, the wife will or the kids will want some fancy bit of tech... Used Trusty Times and Toro in the past but for this order I used Ryan of Intime, even though he's not a TD here, he is on RWI, in short, he's bloody brilliant, great comms, great payment options, even got a discount having never bought off him before, I'll certainly be using him again... You bored of reading yet? Oh OK, to the pictures!!! Not ranking them in any order of preference, not seen them in day light yet, will get a better idea tomorrow.. Also, excuse the pics, taken with a poxy camera on the old mobile dog'n bone! 2014 Blue Themes.. 2014 Black Themes... 2014 Grey Themes... 2014 Safari... All tucked in... Second batch should be here tomorrow.. assuming ParcelFarce short their shite out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jonnybaws 5,280 Posted January 12, 2015 Looking at the watches again.. just noticed a couple of, what can only be described as water marks, very faint on the bezel of the Safari, at 3 and 9.. Any tips on how they can be cleaned up? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ishmael 92 Posted January 12, 2015 I knew this thread was coming, but even that foreknowledge couldn't fully prepare me... Wow. Grey Themes the first turn leader for sure, but that's all over once the Don arrives. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadPickle 2,748 Posted January 13, 2015 And back here again Its good to see you got your mojo for reps back now, we (particularly me) missed having you around here, things were a little dull and I was getting myself into all sorts of trouble Well done for getting them from Ryan, awesome dealer,, really really looked after me on a few occasions. No wonder he's dealer of the year 2014. If I had to choose I'd say the blue themes, but what are those silly subdials for???????? Wierd!! See you on m2m soon enough mate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pseudonym 0 Posted January 13, 2015 Welcome back into the fold Omar. Like Stu, I'm happy I see your name pop up in a thread again. Nice to see you've got a good attitude about reps. None are safe. I used to think there would be 1 or 2 I'd never sell... Now, the only one I wouldn't sell is the GMTIIC, simply for sentimental reason. The rest can go at any time. Again, good to see you pal.

Jonnybaws 5,280 Posted January 13, 2015 OK.. Part 2 arrived, can't be arsed to create a new thread... Again, pics from my poxy Nexus 5.. Again, they look MUCH better in person, the DOHA is stunning, really like the Don too.. Rep Strap for the Don is Pish, good thing Eric's shipped out a nice hornback for it.. Rep Strap on the Doha isn't too bad, will be replaced in the long run but for now, its none too shabby! Both were again purchase from Ryan @ Intime (I think he likes me...) Enjoy... (I know I am ) Don Roman... Doha.. Group shot... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2hot2trot 4 Posted January 13, 2015 OMG. I can't believe your instant collection. Gorgeous mate. My favs are the grey theme and the DOHA, but I would invite any one of them into my collection. Keep up the good work. P.S. I take it you like AP's then? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
