Greetings. Noob from Hawaii

[islands52]

Aloha everyone, I was referred to this site by a friend on a BMW forum, and just lurking for a few days I am slightly addicted already! I had no idea that "homage" watches had gotten so accurate over the years.

About me:
I have to admit I am a watch snob and collector. I have been collecting for over 15 years and have been a tz'er since 1999, but I have been growing tired of the attitude of a lot of the watch community over there. Anyway I hope to learn a lot from you guys and maybe aquire a special "custom" PAM or two that I could never afford.

If anyone needs some advice on gens, or BMWs for that matter, just shoot me a PM. I am also an avid shooter and firearm collector.

Cheers
John

Aloha, I grew up in Honolulu, and lived in Koko Head. Moved to Maui after for 10 years and now am in Vegas. Welcome to RWI.

I go to vegas at least 2x a year. I'm addicted to gambling too

Do you know how accurate the reps are?

Thanks for the greetings everyone. If in Honolulu hit me up if you want to do a mini GTG.

My Tank Francaise is a gen TF Yearling XL. I have not compared it to a current rep, although a co-worker once had a rep of it a few years ago and I could always tell it wasn't a gen.

Welcome to the darkside. We love it when gen collectors are cool with our hobby. :wink:
