Pugwash

Yeah, I've lost two kilos by having a good dump before.

See, I understood it as V had bought some parts for Bean. Bean changed his mind and V was left holding the baby. V isn't a dealer, so he doesn't hold a stock of parts, meaning if he gets you something, he has to pay for it up front out of his own pocket.

I propose porcine aquanauts.

I love how you removed the 5th photo.

He's most likely from the gen boards (something like watchtime.ch, for instance), telling his mates how clever he is fooling all of us old frauds. He even manages to take deliberately rubbish pics with his FinePix A400, even though it's easy to take good ones with that model.

See, this is precisely the kind of thing I want clarified. In the US, it is illegal to buy replicas from China. You're smuggling counterfeit goods, without forgetting that you're avoiding the tax/duty. If it were legal, Customs wouldn't stop the packages; they'd just ask for the unpaid tax and send you your watch. Selling to an acquaintance is 100% illegal, so it's hardly a grey area. Sure, you're not going to get huckled up before the beak for it, but that doesn't mean it's a grey area.

Then how did you know?

Hmm ... I'm not trying to be funny or clever, but what apology?

That's ok, I wouldn't do that!

I hope you didn't steal his bucket!

I'm sure the straps are the same size as the genuines that are available on the Asian market.

Start a new thread then, you're much more likely to get an answer. This one is specifically about vintage Subs/SDs.

So is this.

It's ok, feel free to carry on as the original problems about which this thread was started are all resolved. It's now your dump-stat.

Have you tried his website? http://www.precioustime-uk.com/

We did!

Excellent news, although it's looking like I'll need to get the order in at my new address... Moving house from one country to another places such stresses on buying stuff off the internet.

At this point, I think you're supposed to mail him.

It is, just not in the off-topic forums.

Nothing worth buying.

He has no dials for sale now ...

The subdials are flat on Angus's, but grooved on the gen.

You need tracks inside the subdials:

It's known as virtual spine.
