Hey guys.
New to the site. Already purchased an item, and well, figured I would give exchanging a shot. Life-Long knife collector, competition shooter. Well, now I am obsessed with Balisongs. Had some cheap ones as a kid, bur never really paid them much attention after that. Not to long ago, I got a hold of one, and in trying to rel-learn, tricks... Well, fell in love with the knife. So now trying to push my collecting in the direction of the Balisong. As such, it as been explained to me that the BenchMade Model 42 is a must have. The end of the year ate into my bank account, so I figured I would put another favorite of mine, in hopes of attracting this knife for an exchange.
So up for exchange, is:
ROGUE WARRIOR - RED CELL - BLACK
MODEL: RED CELL (GMT)
CASE: SURGICAL STAINLESS STEEL
MOVEMENT: JAPAN QUARTZ
CRYSTAL: 4mm SAPPHIRE TOP COATED, ANTI-GLARE COATED INSIDE
ANTI-CONDENSATION: KRYPTON GAS
DIAL: KRYPTOLITE
INDEX & HANDS: SUPER LUMINOVA C3
BAND TYPES:
#4. METAL (STAINLESS STEEL).
BLACK PLATING: DLC (DIAMOND LIKE CARBON)
FEATURES: GMT - 2ND TIME ZONE
CROWN: SCREW DOWN - DOUBLE GASKET
METAL BAND: DIVERS' EXTENSION FOR OVER WETSUIT
BATTERY: 3 YEARS +
Check it out! This watch was built to be a weapon!And that is one of the first things you will notice, when you strap it on, and feel its weight!
Nothing on this watch is there for pure embellishment. It's all function. From the anti-glare construction, the krytpon gas filled bezel, which keeps he watch from fogging up when in extreme changes of temperature.
Perfect Japanese mechanism. No the prettiest, but once again... the perfect one, for a knife that might go from downtown New York to the middle of Afghanistan in a few hours. one. Got a problem with the watch? Because of its designs, that has stayed as far away from any proprietary b.s., you don't have to send it around the world to get it fixed. Just take it to the nearest watch repair, in whatever county you might be. Same with it's battery. Nothing proprietary there. Available all over the world.
The Steele band is a weapon on its own, and can take some serious beating, and so does the crystal. See, crystal is prone to scratches and thus avoided on high end watches were scratches are the devil and sapphire is preferred. But crystal shatters, which which is of no consequence in the jungles of New York, but can turn quite deadly in an actual gun fight. So what Rogue Warrior did, was use crystal, for strength, followed by a thin layer of sapphire for scratch resistance. Best of both WORLDS.
SO, TO RECAP.... HAVE THIS BEAUTIFUL WATCH , BUT NOW MUST HAVE A BENCHMADE MODEL 42 BALISONG ---- IF WE CAN HELP EACH OTHER OUT, THAT WOULD BE GREAT! I'M ALSO OPEN, WITHIN REASON, TO MAYBE ADDING SOMETHING TO SWEETEN THE DEAL.
And, of course, let me know if you would like better, more detailed pics.
Thanks for watching!
