  1. Actually I wouldn't worry - even the gen doesn't look like a decent replica.
  2. Hmm, now you mention it, that wrist does look very familiar
  3. "Surly"??? I'd be bloody surly if I had to ride that bone-shaker in frozen conditions. Gimme my dual climate-controlled zone and heated leather seats (even if it gives me the sensation of having wet my pants )
  4. Oh there's a joke there, so tempting but I'm not going to bite for fear of being bitten p.s. I believe the name's actually 'Dolly' - so called after the star turn of those Scottish Nobel Laureates
  5. Liar! Right. That's it. You/Crazy. Me. Outside. Now!!! (err, actually do you mind if we postpone, I hear it's a bit chilly in your neck of the woods )
  6. I think maybe you're giving a bit too much credit here.... It'd be more like this:
  7. Hell, he had enough to go round for all of us
  8. Pfff you say that but I got no response to that Oris TWLDCWWS I sent you....er I mean CrazySaleMan *cough*
  9. Ah, I think he's left the building. Damn, I was kind of hoping to snag me one of those 1655s
  10. Good question, some more 'marketing' may help garner more entries next time Xmas theme next? I know, depressing isn't it
  11. Actually I felt sorry for him and gave him a heads-up to pull it - story was it came with his 1675 (!) from previous owner who "tried to convert it into a YM". Gotta admit though, it is a doozy of a dial By-Tor, you're no fun today
  12. Oh dear, lordy lordy Got my popcorn, sat back with my clock on it now until it gets shot down over there But whilst I wait, can anyone point out the obvious tell-tale signs?
  13. Bet Schalke don't need to get little plastic flags out tonight to create an "atmosphere" . Oh and I'm sure they won't have 25,000 empty seats either Here's something to shut you up - come back and crow when you can equal it ok? Unfortunately for you, UEFA don't make one with a big fat ZERO on it (sorry Ape, don't look! not for your eyes )
  14. Honestly guys you don't need to remove any caseback, that's just overkill IMO. Paint thinner/remover from any model shop combined with a Q-Tip/cotton bud and a cloth to wipe does the job just fine.
  15. Well firstly, I must admit I don't really read the Wristies (although I did see your latest OCD symptom the Superleggera J12) but there's also the possibility that I couldn't tell one of your samey-yet beloved 111Hs from a 111G or a 112 or a gen of any of those 'base' type models at a quick glance
  16. Nice try but I make that 12 goals 0-0 Blackburn 1-1 Arsenal 2-1 Everton 2-2 Tottenham 1-0 Wigan 0-0 Birmingham 0-0 Portsmouth 6-0 Derby
  17. If you see my review from August, I removed the paint off the engraved caseback of my "pricey" Aquaracer in situ with some paint stripper and cotton bud/Q-Tip. Five minute job.
  18. Indeedy indeedy, if memory serves, Euno, it was your 'aunt'(?) and every time you visited/she visited, you'd try that beauty on to see how differently it sat on the wrist compared to your 1675??? Ach, you and TMG.....you bastards and your 1655s!!! I actually got to try a gen on a few weeks back, sadly I couldn't take it home as I didn't have
  19. Thanks Freddy, but I guess the joke must have been lost in translation I meant it as in the Olde English nursery rhyme Three blind mice, three blind mice, See how they run, see how they run, They all ran after the farmer's wife, Who cut off their tails with a carving knife, Did you ever see such a thing in your life, As three blind mice? (before vbarrett weighs in on this, the 'farmer's wife' refers to Queen Mary I and her husband, King Philip of Spain - ha ha beat ya Vic )
  20. Thanks Andy, glad someone got the joke I wasn't being 'unfriendly', merely pointing out that they're not really available on the open market and highlighting that a large amount of the inherent value of a 16610 is in the c.3135 movt that it contains. Anyway the rating....no worries it was just chronomat123 the scammer being childishly petty because I intervened on yet another thread where he'd taken numerous members' money and neglected to send them anything before going AWOL for a few months
  21. Oh I'm here all right just back from my local after a few Liverpool 8 Besiktas 0 (yes folks that is EIGHT!!!!) Anything you can do, we can do better eh Ape? Headline I like most is "Liverpool record the biggest win in Champions League history!" Seems once again, we need to have the added pressure to perform well. I refuse to get too carried away though as we still really need to win remaining two matches first, but this could well be a turning point for our season. It feels almost cathartic after the last few weeks of criticism. Should shut the bloody media up although they're still banging on about Crouch (who always does well against weaker opposition). Babel starting to gain confidence, watch out for this boy he will be HUGE. p.s. Xabi was one of the studio pundits here, couldn't hear much but he had a big smile on his face, and was fiddling with/proudly showing off the same PAM93 on OEM honey 'gator I saw the other week - top man!
  22. Interesting that you should choose that particular combination Aaah, Venezia and a Nautilus
