This all started with you, bro...as I said to Tagfan earlier via PM, it really does feel like Christmas because of all of you!

I am still amazed on how long you waited for the watch from Rudy. You deserve that watch. I'm sure I speak from all who gave. We are a group or more like a family here at RWI. Wear it in great health and I put my LV on in respect to or fellow LV owners.

@J__ Glad you finally have your LV......from the start of your purchase from R40 it's been well over a year, so congrats on having it on your " baby" wrist. Lol. Man I really can't say enough about this community the pride that I feel being a small part of it. Thanks oocb2 for your genuine willingness to help, Thanks Tf1 for this work of art that you painstakingly and beautifully crafted. Thanks to all who supported this in whatever form. Long Live Rwi........ ...

I've been off the forum for a while so I just read this whole thread! Wow. How many twists did this take?? It even turned into a car thread at one point I think. Bad beginning, terrible middle, incredible ending. Cheers to everyone who donated and J_ ended up getting a very special piece put together by the master Tagfan1.
Call me a sucker but I am still hoping Rudy40 has some kind of explanation here (Sadly as of now t doesn't look good for him). I've only ever had great dealings with him, which I know doesn't mean a thing. In fact last year I almost ended up swapping my gen TTDJ for his franken 16803 but he said he really need the cash so it didn't happen.
It's been said before but can't be said enough: buy the seller not the watch.
Very proud to be a part of this forum.

Wow I just read this thread and this is by far most amazing thing I saw on RWI. Hats off to everyone who made this happen and congrats to J___ on a beautiful watch, if I saw it before I would offer aftermarket LV insert with WM9 pearl but with those ingredients I suppose it wouldn't mean too much. :)

Add me to "proud to be a part of this community" list. :thumbsup:

You guys really are fantastic. Kudos to you guys took alittle leave of absence after this shitty experience. I'm now back, and still want a dam Franken TC :( if anyone feels like parting with one please give me a shout. Only proven / long time members please. Hopefully can work a deal with no issues this second time around ? I posted in the wtb section as well. Just really want a nice Franken TC if possible.

Well I've been busy as always while you were away. Building my butt off. I think before I die I will have a collection of one of ecru model sub. Not the specially ones but like the regular. Right now I have a 16610 a 16610LV, 16800,16613, 5513. Now all those are all real but the cases. I have regular copies not Franklin of 1680 and 5512. Also a ceramic no date. So the 5512 and the 1680 will be the next crazy builds.
