  1. Because i like to see how far things will go, ever seen a road going harley over 135mph, why climb a mountain why run a marathon,
  2. Vic when i grew up in UK we did not much celebrate Halloween as use it to practice our "demanding money with menices" trick or treat when i was a lad was mainly 12 to 16 yr olds wearing a mask using very thinly veiled threats, i know it was one of my main earners! Bomb fire night was a chance to restock Ammo. Back then the vilage copper had very sore hands from giving us all a slap, Now the social worker needs therapy. I miss those days. Any one want to go Trick or Treating with me?
  3. Well i am glad to report that we have some very correct optimists with in our ranks, both watches came through with out a problem. next time i think i will try a panerai!
  4. I dont remember the site inquestion but i have got few bracelets off the bay and have never gotthe quality that i get from our dealers here, i know Jay does a good line in bacelets
  5. That will teach me to look how the gens are made and assume the rep is the same
  6. When you get that watch you will know that it was worth the wait, i have over 2 watches and the fish is hard to get off the wrist!
  7. The most unreliable part of getting a watch into the uk is Parcel farce its self, i have waited for 30 days plus before and only lost one so far in 2 years
  8. Ah did you bomb my chip shop in part one????
  9. Quick edit to above, some may be a bayonet fitting, ie it will not screw off but move a quarter of a urn or so and then come off.
  10. Well jay is a good person to work with, i would also be interested in this Ingy, welcome
  11. Only a 10 watch display case eh, just you wait a couple of years and see how many you have.
  12. Still with the Breitling for a while still i think, i noticed that my wife has put a couple of dings in it but i dont mind, it looks lived in!
  13. It may be cheep but you cant buy the skill to apply it and it will never be as good as SL, and why would you want to relume a seiko like on the photos there i have no idea.
  14. I found this one of the easyest watches to change straps on, ok panerai is easyer but i mean spring bar type,
  15. SFSO, i used to think it was the railmaster, the raily is soooooooo goood but the SFSO is just better
  16. Wel i cant get mine to look like that, maybe Pugwash knows why it might be a photo thing
  17. Wow you realy dont have a serial number, aparet from that it looks fine, but can any one explane the yelowing around the markers and number s, is it just a reflection? a reflection with that AR???
  18. I love the way that looks with out the bezel sort of like an over sized airking
  19. Can you post a photo of thew back of the watch??
  20. Well it is early Sunday morning and i have just got home after falling asleep on the sofa at a neighbors party after a couple of beers too many and not changing the time on my watch so i thought i would spend the extra hour here with you all. Got this back on now after the railmaster for the last 3 weeks, the raily has kept almost perfect time maybe plus 2 sec a day if any thing and the SFSO having not set the time on that for over 3 weeks was running a min fast so that is gaining 2 to 3 secs a day, it makes me happy when i have reps running within COSC limits. Nice poljot, i had a nice chrono a couple of years ago but it did not survive a 100m dash on the rain in New orleans, i sent it back under warentee but never heard any thing again, some you win some you lose!
  21. that numbers not working for some reason
  22. I know but some times you just have to road test things hard to find the breaking point!
  23. V dont worry about its size, my wife has been wearing it while i was away and says she likes it more than here Gen omega and the size look cool. But lets face both you any mt wife both wear 47mm pams and if you an carry that off you can wear any thing. Give it a go vic you will be pleased i promiss you!
