The Anal Detail Meter

[Retina]

So... just wondering... how many of you old timers are as anal when it came down to the fine details as you were when you first started in the rep scene?

Was very into the fine details in getting things right before making my first purchase... but that seems to be slowly declining as i noticed no one really gives a shit about what we wear.

The Anal Detail Meter

Description: Virgin to rep scene, expects answers to come on silver platter. Needs a good kick in the ass by batman



Level 2: The helpful member
Best mascot? George and his bobcat.

Level 3: The Know it All

Level 4: I don't give a shit.

Level 5: Loaded bastard

Level 6: The Catch and Release Master

Me either.....see Retina it's like this. All these "phrases" "cliche terms" you memorize. We didn't just pick a few random ones and roll with em. Noobs, for over a decade now, and come into rep'dom straight from the WWW scam sites, speaking scam site language over and over and over and over and over... daily for a decade now. Why? I have no real evidence why but it keeps the community laughing and :facepalm'ing for sure.

as I have said for years, "some GET IT....some don't"

Fixed!

Having a Gen first and KNOWING no one gives a rat's ass. I am not picky about details. I am more price oriented as these are not investments in as much as a gen that holds value as prices rise. Thats why I wear quartz Rep Chronos and don't buy the best of the best.

Lol. This tickled me! I think I am at L.4

 

[GNILTIERB]

Retina,

I lol'ed. Seriously!

What a refreshing start into spare time

you forgot hot dutchess wives and blue chip models :bounce:

Fixed that for you.......

 

[WingNut]

Very good Ret...

And JAFO only buys every Rolex in sight...:hehehe:

 

[wankerdude]

Awesome!!!

I am at the "I don't give a ****" stage

 

[d4m.test]

Very well done with a fine touch of humour. Very illustrative. The good thing about level 4 is, despite some minor backdrops to L3 on bad days, on the good ones You may just jump the next 3 to L7 straight away

 

[kilowattore]

I'm not sure where I am, but I LOL'd a lot!
Brilliant post Retina :lol:

So... just wondering... how many of you old timers

We're getting a good head count of exactly who the "old timers" are.

Ok, I started out as a Noob that just wanted a rep that looked good and that I could enjoy. Bought my second rep here from WBK, loved it, flipped it and jumped head first into a 1675 project and got addicted to having my watches modded. Doesn't matter if it's several mods or just a gen crown and a gen spec plexi swap - I send nearly every watch I get to my modder. I picked up a cheapie 36mm DD in m2m a few months back, it's typical of what I do. It comes in, I look at it, make sure it functions and then stick it in a box and two hours later it's on its way to my modder for a gen crown and a crystal swap (should have been plexi but it came with a crystal) and a polish and rebrush of the top of the case. Now, it's just a cheapy old school DD but, as with most of my watches, I can't seem to leave good enough alone.

oh I don't know I think I'm making WBk's house payments which probably means I don't care much about details.
