  1. Nice to see you're keeping my Sub wound up.
  2. ... and I'll be regaling them all with tales of the excellent chaps that Narikaa and TTK are.
  3. For me, it's my new replacement Diver's watch. Excuse the lack of usual quality, but I'm out and about. ps. For those who need to know, Montecristo #5, Remy Martin XO and a RAZR v3i
  4. Top notch stuff. Now people with no experience will know how to expect to act and be treated. Thumbs up here.
  5. 1: No Lume on the hands, not noticable on afternoons. 2: on Tuesdays, the day wheel is off-centre, as can be seen in my pics, not noticable on fridays. All the others are only noticable with a gen next to it.
  6. 1: Black Sub 2: TTK 3: Yes
  7. "We'll always have Paris..."
  8. You do realise they speak both French and German in Switzerland, right?
  9. Ok, I'll try this again. You appear to have been mistaken: I wasn't suggesting a possible way of pronouncing the word. I was telling you how to pronounce Ingenieur. If you want to pronounce it any way you like, feel free. I'll be over here pronouncing it correctly.
  10. Think about it, they're made in Switzerland, a country with more than one language. It's pronounced in French. An Jen Year. If you read those three words and don't try to be clever about it, you'll pronounce it as well as an English speaker can.
  11. An Jen Year. It's French.
  12. That looks awfully like it's full of IMDB Top Films, which is quite predictable, unfortunately. http://imdb.com/chart/top You want to list the ones out of the ordinary that may get people to think about it more. I'll start the curveball list: Serenity 12 Monkeys Betty Blue Draughtsmans Contract Fight Club Big Lebowski Happy Gilmore ... and others.
  13. On The Bridge on the River Kwai, me wearing Daytona (Scott's, not mine), Scott's Gen PO at the top and his friend's Cartier in the middle.
  14. I wore my Seiko Diver to MBK in Bangkok today and I took the opportunity to buy some spring bars and a strap and my brother, wearing his genuine Planet Ocean took it off and pointed to the spring bars as we didn't know the Thai word, and she didn't even blink. When she noticed my Seiko, she said it was a very nice watch. She assumed his Gen was a Rep as everyone here wears reps, and he says that happens a lot and he prefers it as he'll never get mugged for a rep.
  15. It's on the cards, yes.
  16. I'll be back on the 17th of October, so if anyone needs anything from me, don't expect a fast reply. I'll be posting a link to some sort of photo blog I'll set up once I'm there and I'll pop by when I can. Have a good few weeks, I'll be repless for a while, so I expect your pity right up until you see the holiday snaps.
  17. Dear god ... This chrono is ... well, you need to buy it so I can eat this week.
  18. Damn, outed!
  19. Yes, removing PM ability from n00bz is the way forward.
  20. No. It's a routing issue so it would make sense that it'd affect pockets within a fixed geographical area. To be honest, this has nothing to do with the cost. I could host this site on a server costing significantly less than what this one is, and the only difference would be the loss of anonymity. It's the anonymity that costs, and how! Sorry, I manage large servers for a living. I'll try to tine down the geekspeak next time.
  21. Repeatedly. I've been in touch with their webhosts too, who can't see what the issue is, because they can connect from everywhere. I know what the problem is, but they won't listen to me. They have a router very close to the server that's acting up. The DNS servers for RWI don't even respond as the packets are lost through what I imagine is bad routing tables.
  22. I've already offered to post my major articles/reviews/tutorials to a VIP Forum a week before they go to the general public. I'm no The Zigmeister and my articles aren't that important, but if I do it, then others would possibly follow suite. I'd even do the same across the other boards so VIPs here and on RWI get the pre-releases, then it's released everywhere. I'll never make my info exclusively VIP as I'm not being paid for this and therefore I want it to be free, but I'm happy to preview it for VIPs to help the forums. Does that make sense or am I rambling?
  23. I would get a replacement bezel insert. ps. I brought you a can of Irn Bru back but Mrs Pugwash drank it when she had a hangover.
  24. Yes, their webhost is [censored]. My ISP at home is blocked too, as are several others. Their host knows nothing about this. I have to connect via a proxy (using /etc/hosts to spoof the IP) at my work to connect from home. No, I can't help you connect, but if you google for free open proxies, it might help.
  25. From what I understand, you can take the cogs with the hands from the Asian to the Swiss. There have been so many direct 7750 swaps that I'd be surprised if it were impossible.
