Pugwash

I have about 20 reps and a few cheap gens. I tend to get gen tools, like a brace of Monsters, a Seiko Sub, a Fortis, a Sug Nautilus, a Casio digital compass/altimeter, an unbranded Panerai Homage, etc.

I've got a new Lumpy Breitling: Fresh from TWP. Review and/or pics due very soon.

Damn you. I have the race waiting on my hard drive for when I get home. You've just spoiled the result for me. Thanks.

It's tempting to send the impatient people who think they're entitled to the world on a silver platter to RWI where everything is easier and they'd 'fit in' better. (if you see what I mean )

http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=19352 I did not get it from Silix as Silix didn't have the latest and best version. Here is a breakdown of the steel bracelet: http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=19270 And here's a breakdown of the bezel: http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=20836 It's amazing what the search feature can reveal.

Check my signature for how to photograph watches. It's easy.

Not at all. I just think believing tales like this wholesale contributes to the dumbing down of teh intarnets. Some so-called facts started as jokes and just got told over and over to the point the joke has been replaced by a myth that subsequently gets reported as fact. Besides, anyone knowledgeable about where you are would assume your emergency number was not 911 and that K-Mart may not be an Australian store. (Fact check, KMart may be renamed to Target in Australia this year, so they do exist, but maybe not for long.)

Wearing the old Tin Haddock on the SS bracelet for a change.

No, it's the internet planet. Some of them started as jokes and ended up as "things that happened to a friend of a friend." Example: http://www.snopes.com/autos/techno/cruise.asp Have a cruise around Snopes. There are brazillions of them on there.

Enzo's watch is a work of art. Way out of my price bracket, though.

Under the dial, I'm afraid.

The black isn't particularly black, by the way. It's dull metal-looking to me.

Why Americanise a European hero? You could call the line Crist

Check the top piece of the works. The funny-shaped one with the screw. It has an end with a huge U on it and that U is a spring to push the lever that guides the end cog. I find it can get out of position if you fiddle with the insides. I had the same sort of problem you described and a dismantle/rebuild of the keyless works, paying particular attention to that last piece, fixed it on both my errant movements. I suspect you know all this though and I'm just talking to myself.

This is good news. Less mods needed. Yup, dead pretty, but I hear she's annoying in real life. Oh, and she doesn't put out. Not that that matters as all we'll ever get to do is look at pictures of her, right?

"It feels really good," Jamison said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press. "It's a good accomplishment. I probably won't ever kill anything else that big." ... unless you keep eating like you're currently doing, you fat fsck.

That's not Hogzilla. That's a challenger to Hogzilla's throne. By the way, the picture is using forced perspective to make the pig look a lot bigger than it actually is. The real Hogzilla has a movie due out: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1022876/

Radiomir. Unavoidable, yet classy.

REO Speedwagon?

Are you sure the hands are supposed to be black? We've had a few black hand discussions where it turned out the hands should be silver and that they looked black due to the fact they were reflecting the black card used by photographers do remove reflections on the dial. ps. Cute Avatar! I like.

By then, other options will be obvious. Selita? Seiko's new 28k movement?

Romeo Starts like Rolex, ends in Eo and is young and timeless.

Mrs Pugwash is actually hassling me for something a lot lighter as there are times she doesn't want a 183 on her wrist, like when she's driving, cos she veers left like the wheels are not aligned with a Panerai on. Maybe she's due a ceramic Cartier?

It's ok, you can say Cartier. Nothing bad happens.

Have I previously mentioned this is possibly the best replica we've seen? I think I have ... Mr. Quitous, you really need to try it on a fat leather band.
