Although a much smaller segment of the replica purchases, Audemars Piguet, Bell & Ross, Hublot &TAG Heuer do have a presence here on our forum.
There can only be 1 winner for a new Popular Brand forum so it is up to you, the members of RWI to decide which brand will have it's own forum.

We will decide this in 2 parts.
PART#1 A Poll in which you will get 2 votes. Why 2 Votes you ask, because it helps us determine what might be our second choice if we choose to add a 2nd brand in the future or.. if we have a very close vote we might see the need to add a second now.

Part#2 A Post in this thread will be added to total votes for the corresponding brand. Your post must be one of the following: a wrist shot, a review even if it is a review you did prior to this topic (just post a link to it and one of your photos from it), or photo that you took of YOUR watch just to show off. ****YOU CAN ONLY POST THE WATCH 1 TIME**** IF YOU HAVE MULTIPLE WATCHES OF THE SAME BRAND, YOU CAN MAKE SEPARATE POSTS FOR EACH.

As previously stated, the total votes for any specific brand will be added to the number of photos, reviews, etc. from part #2 to determine the winner.
Also.. throw your opinion in there.. NO OPINION IS WRONG for this thread. Posts do not have to have photos,, but you will help the brands you choose if you do post them.

Ohh.. and just because he is one hell of a good guy and damn good at what he does.. I am asking member [blink:1qonqk6e]Rooster133[/blink:1qonqk6e]
file.php

if he will help me tally the numbers and for him to announce the winning brand when we are done. This poll should be pretty non political... :lol: so I anticipate that this thread will be a lot of fun.
We'll let this poll run for a while.. let's see what happens..

D4M, great idea! And very happy to help out, of course. What an honour. :D
I will also post a few shots of my TAGs as soon as I get the opportunity. Sadly, I just sold my last remaining AP and no longer own any B&Rs or Hublots...:oops:

Since you have your own section you should at the very least have another for your brand section also!
What a rip!

I pick TAG.... Hublot has too many variations and will spark an interesting combo too (hont has custom HBB).

Recent Tag reps after Link series are mostly excellent pieces.

I voted Tag, although I really don't think any of these brands merit their own section.

My first choice was Tag Heuer, as there is really matter for this brand : many reps and superreps. And also, what might be a reason for this section to exist, is that we most probably have several manufacturers for the same model. Who has the best Aquaracer ? :mrgreen:

Some links to my Teviews :

My second choice goes to Hublot.
Although the one and only rep we're talking about is the HBB, there are plenty of flavours and at least 2 manufacturers. It is often difficult to make a choice, and there are regular confusions and misconceptions about the movements used, the quality delivered, the real lite version and the cheaper alternatives. It would make sense to have such a section.

My review of a lite HBB :

Some shots to compare manufacturer 1 and manufacturer 2 :

I voted for Tag. The Tag Heuer lineup has a much broader appeal than any of the other brands listed, IMO.

My 2nd place vote would have gone to B&R.

I would have guessed that Tag would be more popular, afterall they do advertise more than the other three. Plus, they have Tiger Woods :D
