Kudos! What's the waiting list time on this one? Will I get one faster if I bundle it with a diamond necklace?

It’s a fake! The font on the coding machine is too thick and the m has a lower profile than on the real one.

Might buy a couple and stash them. Few silica packs and they should be great investment pieces for my eventual family!..

Has anyone started a thread yet about it transport's well in a very plush car boot/trunk? Sorry haven't searched the forum yet!

I put my Rolex in the machine for analysis and got this:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nulla luctus venenatis risus. Donec non luctus libero. Cras erat lorem, pulvinar ut tortor id, convallis fringilla erat. Nulla ornare luctus orci, sit amet semper quam vulputate scelerisque. Nullam posuere venenatis massa. Cras dolor sapien, interdum vitae lectus sed, eleifend aliquet urna. Suspendisse vehicula turpis ac mi dictum sollicitudin quis eget tellus. Ut at commodo lectus. Vivamus efficitur dignissim odio sit amet semper. Quisque non eros dui. Quisque sed tortor ut purus eleifend cursus. Duis blandit a ipsum id ullamcorper.

Looks over polished, to me.

Well done sir! Magnificent, and some darn good replies too.

Is it a “Padi-o-meter”?

I think the movement was originally in a Sub........U-505 think.


I've seen some on sale in South America at an AD (alt Deutchsland) 'Odessa Antiques', Calle Defensa, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

“Over polished” and “in a Sub.”
Well played!

Sorry, but MODS is demanding you post a picture of this machine set for evaluation of Daytona 116506 within 24 hours or your post will be taken down.

Not that we don’t trust you or anything.

my AD said ...

On Thursday I stopped by my AD to chat a little bit. He told me something about a Code breaking machine.

Anyway, he said their rep was in the store the day before and claims, that Geneva is about to launch an extra Easy Rotor Extension for that machine.

To prevent overheating on hot summer days!

I believe every word my AD said.

Afraid today many AD staff not always speak from mouth, but may make noises from rear end and inside dress/trousers ,much like a bull it's called bulls**t, my device needs no easy rotor extension.
