Has there been any thought about a vintage section? The whole art of aging watches, getting the right crystal for a Rolex Comex Sub, getting a nice worn vintage strap for a vintage PAM...what do you guys think?:rolleyes:

excellent idea.. why didn't i think of that? oh wait.. It doesn't matter what i think. If you smeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeell what the. Rock is cooking!
LOL, thanks buddy!
I just think it would be cool to have a section where Spartans talk about what they did to make a repilca vintage look really old, like my Comex Sub....

bah, a vintage section would have vintage watches, a vintaging section would discuss how to vintage..
sweet comex!
We could be down for this. I know VDBroucke would love this.
There are a number of members who are into the art of modding/vintagizing watches of all brands, and members who need opinions on buying a vintage rep - e.g. MBW's, etc.
Some members (I think it was Frogman?) who have created some cool tutorials on aging dials, etc.

I would be interested in a vintage section, or at least learning more about vintage style reps, more so than the process of vintagizing reps, but it would be interesting nonetheless.
+1... have a vintage 'how to' section and a subforum eyecandy.
Would solve owdeguys thoughts.
I think both topics would work though - vintage reps and the aging/vintagizing them.
There's also some talented modders who could contribute to it as well.

James - somehow I knew you would be into this, considering some of the vintage Rollies and PAMs I've seen you put up on RG ;)
I've acquired a few over the years ... yup yup.

Great idea! I love it when a plan comes together.
I'm so excited and I just can't hide it
I'm about to lose control and I think I like it
I'm so excited and I just can't hide it
And I know I know I know I know I know I want a vintage section
