Lol live1 has acted that way since day one. I remember him saying stuff like that all the time when he first joined. He stopped for a while because he was basically ignored by everyone except noobs, and the noobs thought he was a rolex expert and worshiped him.

On the other hand, it seemed like he was helpful to many people and would reply to many posts and pms with whatever random info that he considered to be the fact of the day.

End of the day he was helpful to me so I can't add any more then what I have witnessed however there is plenty of posts where he was clearly attacked unless the attackers do quick edits to hide this ;) I been around for too many years on various forums to see these goings on away from watches mind,but Im new here so I enjoy buying rep watches and gaining info as I go along and let the boys be boys and men be men, there is a good bunch on here what have been very helpful, if it wasn't for this rep forum I wouldn't even tried the dark side because I just thought they was all junk but knowledge is power and some are pretty fun and look the part... So happy days :)

You are right. Knowledge is power.

Live1 was helpful but as far as he was concerned his opinion was fact.

Incorrect knowledge is no good to man nor beast. I'm not here to knock him. He did contribute and at least try to help people in the best way he could, but some things he was saying were wrong or opinion given as fact.

An example is his opinions on some movements (A3135, Y3135, SA3135 etc). Saying they were junk without owning one. If you own one and have a problem then you have some evidence to base your opinion on. But reading others posts about their problem and then spouting things out as if you have studied it with your own bare hands is different.

That's just my opinion on the matter.

Knowledge is knowledge however acquired, whether from posts, text books, video, lecture, or first hand.
Experience is experience, only one way to gain that.

Live1 shared opinion, knowledge, experience and attitude, no-one is perfect. Just because you don't agree with his opinion, sometimes garnered not thru his own experience but exposure to others relayed experience, doesn't mean he's wrong. His focus is SubC's, so it is possible that he researched exhaustively and shared an educated opinion that did not coincide with your experience/opinion regarding mentioned movements. No harm done, others could counter with their experience or opinion, which leaves you to decide what/whom to believe.

It is my opinion that he was purposely baited into acting out by instigators with bad intentions, and he reacted in bad form, his responsibility, exhibited more than once, but the instigators were not punished as far as I see, could be wrong.

You can find live1 on RG same handle I suggest you all go there and PM him it's useless to post here and revive a negative experience for both him and RWI .. This has gotten too much attention already

i never had a3135, but after hearing all owners had problems with it, I presume I can recommend to a noob to go with another movement .. otherwise only owners of gen rolex + the same watch replicated should speak here ....

I do not discuss his expulsion .. anyway he has done good things.

and since this tread is about v3 noob. i show an Live1' paint for an utent.. i'm impressed on it.. the best paint modd i've seen so far

By the small size of the lume pip mounting hole and thickness/sharpness of font, it looks like a gen bezel insert...???

Right now their unavailability!
If it is an actually full v3, the bezel color (white not silver), and the unavailability of an Asian clone 2836 movement. The other movements are unnecessary expenses and unreliable, as far as posted experiences.
Other than that if it's a good example it's pretty damn good.

got one. like BK said, the date mag glue causes blue rainbow effect. no emblem etching at 6 on crystal. I do like it!!!!

So wait, can one just remove the glue (and stick it back together with some other non-distorting material, I assume) and have a gen-like black hole?
