Pugwash

And there we go. Nicely done.

I'd go so far as to say Seiko has had its props in this thread. Of all the genuine watches I'd like, a Seiko spring drive is near the top of my list and I've said so quite often. I own two Seiko automatics and they are in regular rotation. Seiko has its fans on this forum.

Yeah, punish the early adopters.

They don't enlarge much, to be honest.

If it weren't $8000, I'd be seriously tempted to go into debt for this one.

WOAH! Co-Axial oversized Moonie with a date? Want. Want badly.

It's Sanskrit. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sanskrit

Ubi uses Ofrei, I use Cousins.

I discovered a miracle cleansing and fitness routine that has been a top model secret for decades. I'm not sure I should even reveal the wonderful hidden methods of the ancients, but because I like my fellow watch-lovers, here it is: There are no short-cuts: Eat properly and exercise well.

Sorry for the delay, but I remembered I had a spare-parts movement with a tuned escapement so I just swapped that out. I'll still work on a tutorial at some point though.

That's what I was thinking. Kids today, eh?

Sapphire crystal?

They need your account number, name and address. Ask Jeremy Clarkson http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/7174760.stm

17 here.

It's not deliberate. Different factories come in and produce cheaper versions to undercut the existing models - decline in quality equals an increase in profit. There is no over-arching conspiracy amongst factories.

I think I got it off Chuck Norris ...

I have an Orange Monstrum I'm going to put up for for trade if you've got anything interesting.

So glad we're done here.

I only have the orange on steel bracelet, but I had both these before: ... and this is the Monster being put in its place. Yes, both these watches need AR.

... and that was your first mistake.

Nice. The non-fixed nature of the lens gives it a tilt-shift feel.

It's time for Planet Ocean. Aftermarket AR, gen hands, gen crown/tube ... I really need to fit the 2892 datewheel to it.

"2892" in Watches.

I'd love a Seiko Marinemaster 600m Spring Drive.

I say! I thought we were at Spiffing!
