Christmas Giveaway to ALL Members

[jerryss]

I would like to extend Holiday Well Wishes to D4Me.

1) Because this thread alone is another example of the caliber of people on RWI, and D4ME is of the highest. This is a great idea, to be able to say things to someone on the board, who normally wouldn't hear it.

2) After being burned 3 times from scammer sites before finding RWI, I honestly was hesitant to yet purchase any rep ever again, but D4ME made my first watch purchase an extremely positive one. He got me in possession of my SOSF, which is beautiful, and not only a nice watch, but the transaction itself was top notch.

Plus, D4ME's personal communications with me were great, and he let me know a "real" person existed behind the firewall.

Thanks to this first transaction here that went absolutely 100% smoothly, it has sort of made me feel much more at ease with my rep buying in the future. You could say my faith has been restored in my fellow men (where's Linus with the big inspirational speech about Christmas right now??)

So - thanks, D4ME! My best to you and yours!

I'd also like to wish something special to Brtelec, who always has kind words to everyone, under any circumstances
And again, all the best to ALL RWI members, Admins and Mods : this is a hard job, and I admire their patience and dedication to the community.

I wish a Merry Christmas to Brtelec. He has proven to be a good personal friend and an excellent watch trader. I've bought, sold and traded with Mr. Brtelec on a number of occassions and he has always given me a more than fair shake. In fact, I know he has knowingly given me the better end of the stick in sales and trade. Hell, he even sent me a free watch just for the hell of it. He has taught me the "pass it on" concept which has inspired me to give things away for free.

Honorable mentions who by pure coincidence happen to be on some level of administration: R2D4, D4Me, Pix, Hooligan and many more. Even though mentioning more than one name may disqualify me from the contest I'd also like to mention: jj69, Cybee, Mr.Zoso, Maxlove, HU, FM, BOSD, Bo, Allygoat, Indy, bike racing Astronaut, Mach and many, many more.

I would like to wish a genuine Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all RWI darksiders. One in particular I would like to extend those wishes for is Fakemaster.
His dedication to our gray-area hobby has produced some fine works. I myself do not own a Fakey original but keep contact with some members outside this forum that have and did get to see his PVD Rolex project up close and must say the quality and attention to work has re-kimdled my love affair with watch collecting, and modding. I do share alot of his opinions and have come to find out he's originally from "round the way!" (that explains alot!)
He recently offered an Omega Box set with a pen for members here that was truly labor intensive and at a great price. i had to stop myself many a time from clicking the PM button since I promiosed myself no more reps in 08'. I think I might have cheated myself with Fakemaster in out fold on that one.
He takes the time to answer any questions even the most obvious even if it directs us to use the search feature since the person making the query will get his answer and then some by hsi direction
His knowledge of watches and the rep made sometimes has me wondering if he is THE industry insider. Truly the master of the entire craft and if that is so...if he is the guru, then we are lucky to have him in our fold. Every post, every thread along with every masterpiece he has created is a sliver of the Christmas spirit of giving unconditionally to each and all of us.

Thank you RWI* Merry Chritmas Darksiders!

Merry Christmas to you Fakey...you deserve this well wish and gift ! [smilie=angel12.gif]

D4M, I am sorry for this seconed post but I forgot to wish my personal friend Takashi a merry christmas. I met Taka over a year ago in person when he was in Germany at the University and his knowledge about watches is fantastic. I learned a lot from him regarding movement swapping, luming and watch repair. He is a great guy. Just look at his posts, they all have value. Some of my modded watches came from him. I know he is on Bali now without any access to the internet and spending some time with his family. Wenda, you are a great guy. Hope you come back soon.

I would like to extend a "Happy Holidays" to all of the members of RWI. Individually, I wish daytona4me a Very Merry Christmas. I am a new member and have searched the site high and low for info on what my first purchase would be. The pics and review of the Breitling Skyland V2 and V3 convinced me that that was the watch for me. I ordered the V3 from D4M and it is currently sitting in customs in Vancouver.

Thanks

I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and much prospering as we inter into this New Year. I would especially like to thank Hyster for some of his awesome watch reviews because they bring so much joy into my life. After a long stressful day at the office it is just great to come home get a glass of red merlot and read his reviews, aww the power of relaxation.

Cheers everyone and to a happy new year!!!

After giving it a lot of thought, I've decided that there really is one person here at RWI that I do need to thank. Someone who works tirelessly for hours without pay or recognition. Someone who is always there for any member, new or old. Someone who has an immense amount of knowledge and wisdom, and is always willing to share it. Someone who is universally liked from pretty much everyone on the forum. And someone, it must be said, who is forced to endure more than his fair share of abuse.

That person would be me.

Yup, after putting up with all the Swayze labeling, gay-bashing, Panerai dumping, eye-gouging chandeliering, and just all around crap that I take on a daily basis from LoS and the rest of the Mod Squad, I think that I really deserve a pat on the back and a round of thanks. And a new IWC watch.

So, in sum, I still rock the friggin' house down.

Such humility brings a tear to my eye. [smilie=ky.gif] [smilie=icon_salut.gif]

This forum is filled with a bunch of decent people, fundementally warped perhaps, but
really, a bunch of good ole boys. And gals. Merry Christmas to all and to all, a nice watch!
