Pugwash

It's from my old $110 Silix Radiomir. The movement is dead (runs intermittently) and has been replaced with an inaccurate-looking one (Mrs Pugwash doesn't care - she just wears it), but it still looks nice.

It's just an open plastic bag. Make it into an igloo or grotto if you must.

It's suffering from routing issues. Some people can get to it, others can't. You'll be back on there soon.

You've got to laugh. King is selling the same one for $900+ claiming it has a 7753 in it. Ha. Ha.

Absolutely, yet as one who helps people try to identify movements, there are an awful lot of people who could be doing so much better with very little extra effort.

Little bump for those who missed it.

Damn, that's scary! Good to have you back, The Zigmeister.

Very nice work!

Sorry for the delay in posting a new tutorial, but I've been busy having a life and arguing about the US presidential election. Here's what you get when you take a photo of a movement. No Macro, no special lenses, just set up a lamp and tripod. As you can see, there's a hideous amount of reflections, shadows and burned out areas. Here's the set-up used: This is how I imagine most shots are taken. With the simple addition of nothing more than a plastic bag, you can make a cheap and instant light tent. Just put the subject in the bag, fluff it up and take your shot. The results are remarkably different. Click either movement photo for a larger version. Comments, as always, appreciated.

Tasty!

Wasn't that Precious Time?

No-one knows the origin of the WM9 Subs. Don't expect an answer.

Nope, didn't work.

Runners in China. Same place Canal Street sellers get them.

Just a cheap DSLR and the stock lens ... Here's how to do it: Photo Tutorial - DSLR reverse Macro

Debunk? It's not an Apple site, if that's what you mean. The guys behind it work at FullSix, a new media agency. Apple most likely don't read it and definitely don't pay attention to what's there. They have their own researchers and their own top-three feature lists.

I got AirSharing when it was free.

I won't surprise anyone with my choice.

A couple of quick shots on BOB for Breitling leather:

Intel Comments at IDF Taiwan October 23, 2008 "Anand Chandrasekher issued a correction on comments made by members of his team yesterday at Intel's Developer Forum in Taiwan. As general manager of the Group responsible for Intel's ultra-mobility products, he acknowledged that Intel's low-power Atom processor does not yet match the battery life characteristics of the ARM processor in a phone form factor; and, that while Intel does have plans on the books to get us to be competitive in the ultra low power domain - we are not there as yet. Secondly, Apple's iPhone offering is an extremely innovative product that enables new and exciting market opportunities. The statements made in Taiwan were inappropriate, and Intel representatives should not have been commenting on specific customer designs." Oops.

Pfffft! AirSharing FTW! http://www.avatron.com/products/ AirSharing effectively turns your phone into a wifi Webdav server. So much better than USB Nubbins, as you can read the DOCs, PDFs, XLSs on the phone.
