  1. Oh? Who stepped down?
  2. Welcome to the Alumni, Andreww. Klink is a two-faced [genital reference] and spends a lot of time moderating the forum either drunk or under the influence. He doesn't even tell Tim when he lashes out, which makes Tim need to spin-doctor pretty much every unilateral strike Klink does. RWI used to be good, but there is no-one willing to rein in Klink. [intercourse reference] RWI and [intercourse reference] the horse it rode in on. The place is a mess and the only purpose it serves now is to give the sort of people we don't want here a refuge, keeping them from felching in these hallowed halls.
  3. It makes no sense. Also, you didn't mention what watches you were wanting to pout on it. If it's all ETA non-chrono watches, then it makes no difference. If it's 7750 (ETA and Asian) chronos then it matters as they're one-way, but I forget which - grabs chrono, spins it ... anti-clockwise.
  4. I wear watches based on what my mood is and what I'll be doing that day. For instance, unpacking boxes? Something rugged. Washing the car? Something waterproof. Going out? Something classy or stylish. Sitting in front of my computer all day? Something. I love having the choice.
  5. Lunette Verte = Green Bezel. Oh, and MBK nearly burned down today! http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=117138
  6. Just you.

  8. I have one as a backup to my two MacBooks.
  9. 1665: 1680:
  10. Maybe TTK bought them all for his group buy.
  11. You say you're after Vintage but talk about LVs. If you're indeed after vintage, you should have no problems if you're at the right stall. As for LVs, I honestly wouldn't know.
  12. Hmm ... I've not done a 1665 yet. Maybe I should dig through these piles of boxes for my jewelers' files.
  13. Amazing revisionism. I had you pegged as an interesting and educated debater until you posted that.
  14. See? This is exactly what I'm talking about. WWII was won by the allies, not the US. The US didn't storm Normandy, the allies did. The invasion force was from the UK, the US and Canada and was supported by Free French and Polish troops. Stop taking credit for a team effort: it insults your friends and allies. The US war effort was amazing and part of a huge global undertaking whereby the US chose to fight on two fronts, but you didn't do it alone.
  15. Do your homework. TTK was in active service in the armed forces.
  16. ps. I like the US and have a lot of friends there. Don't take my posts as US bashing. Attack opinions, not people.
  17. I find them very comfortable ...
  18. This is a forum: Reading this is opt-in. No-one is ramming anything down your throat.
  19. Ooh, edited post! Yes, he said stay out of Britain vs France wars. Oh, and this: "Against the insidious wiles of foreign influence (I conjure you to believe me, fellow-citizens) the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awake, since history and experience prove that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of republican government. But that jealousy, to be useful, must be impartial, else it becomes the instrument of the very influence to be avoided, instead of a defense against it. Excessive partiality for one foreign nation and excessive dislike of another cause those whom they actuate to see danger only on one side, and serve to veil and even second the arts of influence on the other. Real patriots who may resist the intrigues of the favorite are liable to become suspected and odious, while its tools and dupes usurp the applause and confidence of the people to surrender their interests."
  20. I have no dog in either side of that argument, but the US has to stop picturing themselves as the saviour of Europe. I doubt anyone posting here saw active service on either side of WWII, and that British servicemen hate being told the US saved France. France and the US have a fractious love/hate relationship that no-one really understands.
  21. How the times have changed. The first US domestic policy was basically decided by the Parisians ... (no, really. Check your history. Why did the French give you the Statue of Liberty?)
  22. SKX031, it's a 40mm watch that takes 22mm straps. ps. Eunomians, thanks for the Necropost.
