Best Panerai Homage? (Part 2)

[TNT13]

As per Mod request, here she is. Bigger and Better!

Also, I would like to make a request. Can we refrain from using image hosting services that take down the images after a while?
This is going to be a popular thread, so we don't want a whole bunch of

throughout the thread.

One way to solve this is to do what I do and use the "Manage Attachments" button under the Advanced section.

1) Click "Reply"
2) Click "Go Advanced"
3) Click "Manage Attachments"
4) "Browse..." for files and "Upload"
5) RIGHT click on uploaded image (above Manage Attachments Button) and select "Copy Shortcut" ("Copy Link Location" if you're using Firefox)
6) Click on "Insert Image" icon
7) Right click and Paste (or CTRL-V)
That's it!

Any method which avoids missing pictures is appreciated.
Thanks!

Maybe this is a good time to jump in and make a more refined startpost on where to go for what kind of homages, as the old thread was riddled with questions about how to contact JOA or Davidsen or what Jackson's website was?

Or is that something we can't talk about at all anymore with the new ScoobyDoo regulations?

[TNT13]

I could include that information in the first post if it's ok with the powers that be.

Here are mine:

Getat Custom


Back with protective plastic.


Barotech


My own creation

[zippofan]

I could include that information in the first post if it's ok with the powers that be.

The problem is specifically with MM branded homages because of Richemont's trademark, avoid those and you're ok. Also, a certain manufacturer of Pam homages (Military +1m3) spammed multiple forums so his website is listed in the board software's Twilight Zone.

Here's the link back to the original thread:

Best Panerai Homage?

Ok, so if people can post what sites/contacts they feel should be included, I can put them all in the first post.

I would ideally like the following info:

Name of company
AKA (nicknames often used on the forum)
e-mail address
website
ball park price range for a homage watch
Special Services offered (such as custom work)

[midshipman01]

I'll do my part. This definitely needs to be in the first post because there are way too many topics asking where to get this stuff. It should also be noted that ALL of these sellers have a good reputation here, so there is no need to ask which to go for.

Thanks!!!

Excellent!
I made a couple of minor changes. If anyone wants to add anything, please let me know.

Maybe we should add a FAQ.

The broken "This image has been deleted" icon appears when the user deletes it from their account, or, photobucket deams it as inappropriate (p0rn, nudity, etc). They just don't get rid of images for no reason "after a while."

It drives me nuts when I see these broken photobucket IMG icons all over the forums. Why do people go through the trouble of creating an account, uploading files, copy and pasting the URL here, then deleting the photo from their account? What a mess.

Just use www.tinypic.com and be done with it. As long as it's not pr0n or contains nudity, I don't think I've EVER seen a broken tinypic icon.

Hello,

I am currently in the market for a PAM homage but my problem is that I have a very small wrist so every whatch that has more than 42mm (better 40mm) in diameter looks ridiculous. I do not want a watch which is too low end. Any suggestions?
