Lemmy Caution

Same Question - my subscription has not renewed since September

Look at the pushers - rep Look at the dial - no silver outline AND the subdials lack the concentric circle texture... It's a rep. I reported it also.

The upside to all this may be that new 'fixes' are coming-out. Maybe overly optimistic - maybe not. We've seen some nice incremental changes over the last couple of years.

I beg to differ - I have purchased several watches from both Angus and Trusty 'serviced' One, my Silver Themes - is the only one of 5 secs@12 aps that isn't in need of service -the others were not purchased 'serviced'. Another, a V1 T3 was purchased serviced - I dropped it and the cyclops fell out so, I sent it to Speedy and told him to service it if it needed it- He replied that is was clean and lubed. Still runs great. Angus has added a watchmaker so his serviced watches will be available more quickly. Still. I would send it to a trusted resource for service after a year or so. 7750s - I've decided to get rid of most of mine - they're just another "mouth to feed". I'm going to keep one Safari, the Silver themes and my Santos 7753 Swiss. At some point, I may add a 3717 w/Swiss mvment. Simple is good. (PAMs 6497 Unitas, WM9Rolex/Jumbo etc). Afterthought - I do have an HBB PlatMat that I will keep/mod - I believe it's a 7750. Though simple is good, I do like Chronos.... :-)

They are as reliable as any rep assuming that they were correctly assembled at the factory and SERVICED. Servicing these watches is not an option but a necessity. I'm wearing a 3 year old Silver Themes that was serviced at purchase and again a few months ago - it keeps accurate time - to within 15 secs a day. Next time I send it in, I will have it regulated as well. Service at least $200 from my experience.

Thank you for taking the time to find out what you did. I had wondered why George just 'disappeared' though now, it seems reasonable that George must have died. I have emails from him up until early 2010. Then, I didn't have any reason to email. I had my WM9 Jumbo up for sale - didn't get any reasonable offers. I'm glad I didn't sell it.

Beautiful!

Good answer - I have one sitting in my watch box. Polishing the rehaut makes a big difference - the reflections of the numbers are evidence of that. :-)

Sead 114 - Looking for gen dial/hands

Anyone do this in USA/CANADA? I need to add L before and after Swiss Made on a 114 Sent from my DROID BIONIC using Tapatalk 2

Looks good! Before pics would be nice too - Not a complaint - just a thought.

It has been a busy year for me and I've neglected my hobbies. Time to make some changes in my collection as well - mods, servicing and a few to sell. I logged-in and made a donation and am looking at membership options. Maybe I'm blind, an idiot or both but, I've searched the FAQs and I don't see an area that explains the differences between Platinum membership and VIP (aside from the cost differences and duration options). Nice to be back!

Congratulations for making the decision to go - can't wait to hear about the journey!

Summer watches -

Get The Black Themes - silver themes sucks The AP logo is wrong.

Honey Hornback Chocolate Hornback

Check APbands.com - look at 15202 and 15300 straps. 15202 and 15300 are Jumbos.

(What 'mods' were done on these? Beautiful watches - tempting) Reposted to sales thread -

Burnz is the best - As I said there are not enough superlatives to describe his handling of this deal. Bummer it happened to both of us.

Thanks Burnz - Thanks all - Being civil is the only way to handle something like this. As far as shipping watches? Probably best to label the package "novelty item" and use a box. Not that I haven't received at least 8 watches in bubble wrap mailers. One thing I've noticed about Josh/Angus - they completely encase the box in tape and plastic label wrap making entry a committed effort. Still wonder about using simple airmail as opposed to EMS - maybe this is the best way from Singapore - another seller from Singapore always used Airmail with 0 problems. Who knows? I'm still blaming the law of averages. AND "Murphy" because he has big ears and knows how badly I want a nice 10d.

Denim shirt and jeans go great with my Silver Themes from csquared:
