Niceeee!

Wanted to ask, when and where do you wear this watch? Obviously it's an expensive watch, do you save for nice/expensive events and nights out or do you wear during the day?

I mostly wear it on my days off, but sometimes to work, don't see the point in it just sitting and not getting worn. I do clean it at nite if its been worn so hopefully the gold will wear well plus I'm not hard on my watches, my diver that I normally use as my daily beater is still in as new condition.

Good I feel the same way, I wear my ss/ceramic most days but do wear the rgrc to work and at weekends. When the diver comes I will be wearing that as daily beater I'm sure.

I'm interested in seeing your full collection as seems we have similar taste in watches (and aftershave!) Do you have a pic?

Haha long gone are the days of me having multiple reps Matt, 3 at a max now and have been like this for the last few years, if I buy 1 then one has to go.
I normally get bored with rep models very quickly but since getting into Ap's recently I've not felt the need to move any on. The diver is the most comfortable rep I've ever owned and after wearing the RGRC more and more I'm even finding it comfortable to wear now, so I'm left with Diver, RGRC, and Pam 390. Btw just ordered a tester of Creed Aventus from eBay last nite as I'm thinking of buying it next.

We definitely do have the same taste then as I also have the 390. I am also feeling the same way... I bought a black wooden 12 watchbox from.. The guy in Germany Rainer/Reiner and sort of regret the decision. Should have really bought the 6 watchbox. Since buying my hbbs and the ap I have really found that these super reps are perfect and as soon as I have the diver I have all the watches I need/want. I could easily rotate 6 watches, 12 is a bit excessive so I have 6 empty spaces in the box. Like you say it has got to the point now where I would sell one to buy another!

I can't get over the recent Tom ford aftershave my girlfriend bought me, do have a smell of the 'oud wood'!

Don't get me wrong I do envy you guys with all the choice, and trust me I'd love to buy both the Ss/SS V6 Hub and Evo V6 rg but 3 works for me just good

Oud Wood isn't one I've tried, I usually buy testers from eBay and try it out on my skin for a few days before buying a bottle, I've tried Neroli Portofino, Jasmine Rouge, Champaca Absolute but my favourite was Tabacco Vanille, but tbh none of them come anywhere close to my Clive Christian it's something else.

sort of breaking the rules again posing my hbb, but I thought you would appreciate the shot.

I think I'm going to do the same, few testers on eBay and I will look up that fragrance

Lol, get some more of your Ap's up I'm sure those Tom Ford glasses would have a pretty penny

has anyone tested the 2 chrono dials? hour & minutes. Just got mine from PT today, it looks very nice.

Another thing, i think the back cover, it is still showing an "f" series, shouldn't it be the "h" series?

I tried the Chronos once just to make sure they worked, probably never use again. No idea on the case back series, I just enjoy it for what it is, get some pics up bud and keep this thread alive.

Definitely the mentality to have about our watches!

Haha, opened that bottle nearly 11years ago on our wedding nite, it's been bone dry ever since, bit like sex after marriage:biglaugh:

Doubt the malts will be worth much, even thou I've had them un opened for over 10 years

I have been in touch with Ryan and he has been great. Thank you very much for your help Sharrkey. I was about to order and then I saw the Montauk V2 so I ordered that one first since it is 100 pcs only. I still think I am going to get RG too just because of your pictures :notworthy:
