  1. I too would hve to aggree with pug but still think that my Railmaster 39mm is so close if it were not for the saphire case back you would never know till you took it apart
  2. Thinking of you and your family ken, get well soon
  3. every time i try to click on a thread i get an IPS driver error, any one else???
  4. It is a shame that people get ripped off like this, even when we report it to fleebay half the time they dont do [censored]. Also the winning id is kept secret and we cant even tell them to get it checked. New link to a 111h from the same artist in post 1
  5. Why not get a SFSO, get it waterproof tested and seviced, still wont be over $450 and you have a great watch that looks great.
  6. Try a scotchbrite pad first you wont cause so much damage, best would be a dremel wheel that looks like one, works realy well.
  7. The UPO lite and asian steelfish do not i repeat DO NOT have an asian 2824 copy, the movement in these watches has nothing remotely to do with 2824 or eta no matter what they advertise it as. The only watch i have seen that had a 2824 copy was a sub from river.
  8. Welcom, Well you came just at the right time, their are some great breitlings out recently the stealfish is great! need to get one my self. The VIP function should be working, it is all about supporting this great place of ours. This place is full of very helpfull people, the site is not biased to any dealer in any way and you will always get an honest answer to a well formed question. Just use the search function before asking who has the best sub!!! lol
  9. If i know i have a nice close fitting part then i use clear nail varnish, so far i have had no problems, the reason i use this is that it holds well but can be broken when i need to and cleaned off easily as opposed to epoxy or cyanoacrylate glue.
  10. What is the dial for, if you dont want to risk damaging it i might be interseted in buying it off you if for 44mm with secs at 9
  11. took me 10 secs, casual and sport were the key words.
  12. As Pugwash said that phrase is used whn people discuss the products from certain dealers, we all know that there are many different reps from the quartz rolex you canpick up from a bloke on the beach to a couple of $ to the super(priced) reps like the SFSO all the way up to the solid gold iced out franken reps with gen movements. We also know there are many diferent factorys some will have a gen line of watches in rolex/pam or what ever form and will have and illegal side assembly line do ing the reps in great volume, just have a look here now if that factory is not making named vesions of that watch they must be stupid! but on to your point The movement yes they should be good and they all can be wht is lacking even in the ETA on a lot of occasions is proper servicing and QC, you standard 21j asian if properley assembeled and oiled will last years and also the chronos. The case material, we all know that rolex does not use asi 316 stainless but a higher grade that has a differnt shean but also is harder to work so the reps are in the easeir and cheeper 316 steel. The one thing that 99% of reps are missing is quality control.
  13. Cheep and chearfull 177H from TTK, modded CG by me, waterproof, on Andystrap 3, 4mm dark grey cow hide. I am off to pick up a package soon so it might be some thing else later!!!!!!!!!
  14. I have done a lot of sport with my railmaster on (40mm) but why not try the PO or what ever you have on a velcro or G10 band that way you can wear your watch and fitt it exactly as you want for running.
  15. Well it is nice to see you taking some time for your hobby now and again!
  16. Wow Admin talking about watches, now thats quite rare, i dont suppose you get that much time after keeping this place running though. Just been having a look at the gens and i quite like them, the Day Date with teh glod bezel struck me the most. next were the militare withthe crowns at 6, correct me if i ma worng but most of these are 42mm ish and smaller than most pams?
  17. Not sure if it counts as live but the DVD Led Zep the song remains the same, lots of live perfornaces on the US tour.
  18. A 177h would be a great start, i got one as my 4th pam and like it more than the 47mm ones, light smaller and non intrusive. Just be aware that onece to wear a pam even if you think you wont like it but had to give it a try it will bite!
  19. Nice what is the normal cost of the gen, nice choise of movement, i have an ST18 in one of my ATs and it runs great, and even if you had a problem you can replace it for
  20. Some do some dont depends on what movement you are talking about, have a look googles great!
  21. Welcome, your right hell of a lot to read here, spend some time before you spend your cash!
  22. Great link thanks! I might be able to get some proper toold now but it is amazing what you can do with a stanley knife and a darning needle!
