I've heard of pissing your money away on junk, but this is taking a sickness to a lower level. Paying money for photos of watches. This is what happens when a guy can't get laid.

Mark1, thanks for your interest.

The introductory sets will be signed but not numbered. In early 2015 we expect to have a Limited Edition series that will be printed on Linen Fine Art paper produced by one of Europe's oldest family owned paper mills producing fine papers on the same location since 1784. Each print will be carefully inspected then signed and numbered. The prints will then be custom mounted in highest quality Philippine Mahogany frames and shipped in a custom Naugahyde archival quality box.

Conjurer, thank you for your interest as well. Very pleased to see the excitement over this once in a lifetime opportunity.

The Warlet idea is an interesting concept, while we have no current plans we appreciate feedback form the collectors and will consider it.

Obviously a single male, as no woman would allow something like that in her living room...ask your own ladies (or significant others, just in case ;) ) and see what the answer is... :o :( :? ..yep, trust me; I know. :shock:

My fiancee purchased an authentic old Hamilton poster that diagrams the inner workings of a watch in beautiful navy, dark red, and off white to hang in the office. I'm looking for a cherry frame that doesn't cover the Lancaster, PA at the bottom.

There's a big difference here, 'drew; he's framing Yugo 'racing' car photos -- that were actually demo-derby cars with a lot of photo-shopping done to give 'em that brand-new look -- and your young lady is framing the equivalent of a Ferrari racing automobile. And, not surprisingly, it's in the office and not the living room. :mrgreen:

If you can get a pic of the poster, I'd love to see it, as I'm a Hamilton Fanaticom... ;)

Agreed on wanting to see your poster. And there is a helluva' difference between tasteful artwork and the pics that clown has of his wartches!

Great day in the morning, I just noticed this: That George Thorogood guy posted a photo of an Omega Constellation on top of a fucking Hydromax? As if one had anything to do with the other?!?

Get that real watch offa that toy right now, ass wipe.

Of course, I see now. How sad that it makes total sense. Lufty, you nailed it.

The Hydromule looks like it has been cutting off the circulation in that guy's hand for so long his skin is withering up and dying.

Still wonder how there could have been activity on my WG account after the above date which was a month or so after I told the owners there to fuck off. In fact there was activity on that koimaster account until 2010.

I may have to recall all the HydroMix versions sold to BestBuy................... Nah !!

A HydroMix falling off the wrist of a geek while mixing a batch of Cheetos dip could do terrible damage, H-F, especially to geek genitalia. You may be opening yourself to a long stretch of frivolous lawsuits.

Despite the bracelet falling off, the fact that wearing it for a period of time causes pain, the crown logo rubbing off after a few days, the shitty lume...it still exudes a lot of quality.

Just weeks after the esteemed Mongo Kid leaves the Invicta Watch Group, the company releases their new revolutionary product with a cheap folder bracelet. This is the kind of stuff that Mr. Turdling was fighting against and probably the reason he left. As the Technical Brand Manager and a product ambassador how does he defend Invicta releasing a product not worthy of the logo. Where has the Invicta pride gone, this is a part of the Reserve Line, only the best of the best, the Invicta watchmakers in Switzerland train hard just for the opportunity to work on these legendary Reserve timepieces.

Until I see a commitment to quality and customer service I'm going to cut back my purchases to 10 or so a month (barring Sunday Runs, Once Only's, Spring/Summer/Fall/Winter Once a Thon's, Costco Sales, Daily Deal Sites and Birthday/Holiday purchases)

That should send a loud and clear message to Mr. Lalo.
