Wow...this is exactly what a newbee like me needs to get a detailed overview. I will for sure try to get one or the other watch as well. The 5514/15 range I find especially interesting.

cheers

Thanks Uwe - it's great to hear that my insane hoarding has actually been of help to someone. That makes it all worthwhile. I'd better buy some more.

Thank you! It’s always nice to hear that someone has discovered I’m capable of the occasional positive contribution - rather than my usual stream of sarcasm and bad advice.

I’m going to pile on your high. Your posts on 5 digits had been an inspiration. It’s filled with helpful information and got me on my own small bunch of 5 digits (4 so far, 2 more coming). Kudos.

Nice to have a set - I also have a trio. I also had the BP but sold it - which I regret, because I really like the insert colour. The colour of the ARF insert looks really good too. :thumbsup:

Thanks! I'm currently working on a partnering post featuring pics of my Kermit collection - as I have 5 of the froggy buggers now. But due to my extreme laziness, it's taking forever (same as my Tudor pictorial, which has been "coming soon" for about a year...).

Looking forward to that next thread of yours mate, this one here was really inspiring!

OMG I thought I was a kid in a candy store since dis overing the world of reps mid last year!

Friends and family - who I have gifted to - have asked how many more is enough?

Now I know the answer - the sky is the limit!

You go man! Go! You are an absolute rockstar in my books!

Amazing thread, thanks for sharing all that! This content is so quality that it could be turned into a full color hardback book.

Did you have any more information on your tropical dial mod process anywhere?

I gotta bump this for more people to see.

Just stumbled across this thread and just wow. It's like appreciation and addiction had a head on collision. The sense that you love these watches is palpable. Enjoy and thanks for sharing.
