  1. I use a cheap Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ20. It's non-SLR and I like it. It's not so good in low-light as it gets noisy, but the lens is amazing. If I can stop buying watches for a while and my laptop repair bill isn't too scary, I may get a Canon DSLR this year. ps. Let's not forget TTK swears by the Minoltas. Don't rule out his opinion.
  2. And another Click for 1280x800
  3. Click for 1440x960
  4. Not me.
  5. Presenting my 45mm Planet Ocean - Ultimate Edition from Precious Time. This is a fairly light pictorial, I'm afraid. I'm just going to keep it to four photos as you've seen all the possible views this watch can be seen from. I don't want to add more, especially seeing as my good friend By-Tor did the definitive review and anything I did subsequently would be a pale imitation, and Bazz did a decent run of photos as well, and I don't want to distract you from his amazing Planet Ocean splash pieces. Check them out, they're worth hunting down. So, two of these pics are enlargeable and two aren't. I hope you enjoy them, they're pushed a little in post production, but I hope that doesn't distract from the natural beauty of this beast. For those on the fence about this one, particularly because of its size, can I just say that yes, it's a big bugger and yes, it's heavy, but it wears well even on skinny wrists like my scrawny 6.75" girly-man pipe-cleaners. However, take it to your local shop if you're not of By-Tor-Forearm size as resizing this one requires a lot more violence than usual. If you're looking for a watch that screams "Get out my way, Man hunt Bison!" or "Good Evening Mish Moneypenny. I'm about to violate you with my man-shaushage, aye, indeed lashie" then this is the one. It isn't masculine in an over-compensating way, it's masculine in a "I've just climbed out of Eva Green and into my Aston Martin" way. It doesn't compensate, it declares. On with the pictures. click for 1280x960 version click for 1280x960 version Anyway, enough of my rambling, I'm just going to tenderise some steak Rocky-style, for I am Man.
  6. A long time ago.
  7. It almost makes sense to get a Mac just for browsing the web and email. Sorry, did I say almost?
  8. 22mm Bob For Breitling. They appear to be out of stock on the black, but any 22mm Breitling-alike strap will do. http://www.waccex.de/catalog/index.php?cPath=149_154_166
  9. My 45 on a leather band on my 6.75" wrist:
  10. Mine from PT is excellent lume for a rep..
  11. Dude, you're the one breaking the law ...
  12. Did you check here? http://jearle.free.fr/pugwash/
  13. Hmm ... I can. It's even easier with a camera and 1 second exposure
  14. Damn, and to think I'm ordering one from TTK, finally. I'd have done this.
  15. If your watch isn't getting wound up enough, it's a sure sign you're not getting enough breaks from your computer. Get up and stretch your legs and wave your arms about. ps. I'm only half-joking ...
  16. "I for one welcome our Asian 21j Overlords."
  17. Boom! Fortune favours the brave. Congratulations, I bet you're glad you turned down the job in London now.
  18. I say "How much???!!??" before fanning my face with a magazine and sitting down. ... but that's just me.
  19. This is a photo of the gen pearl. Sorry about the quality, but I defy anyone to do photoshop well over VNC.
  20. Ok, the only linked sites here, visible through adblock or even curl, are googlesyndication, extreme-dm and adbrite. If you're getting adserving.cpxinteractive.com, you're infected.
  21. All fears of its being too big have gone. It's not oversized on my scrawny wrist. I'll go into more detail when I do my pictorial review for your Omega guide.
  22. The thread should be inside the crown tube.
  23. Navitimers today use a 7753. Our copies use a 7750 with transfer wheels, raising the dial. This gives us a recessed datewheel. The newer transfer wheels on the latest 28k Navitimers are tidier, according to The Zigmeister, and have a plate to stop the datewheel flapping about, which would normally be handled by the dial.
