  1. That my friend... is a million dollar question.
  2. That must have been quite an experience... Lucky you to be have been given such a treatment. Must say that the staff went beyond the normal service standards. Glad to know that excellent customer service is still available in this day and age. Cheers Siesta
  3. Monday... PAM 111 on Honey Tan Croc Cheers Siesta181
  4. Sunday...PAM 111 on a Honey Tan Croc Cheers Siesta
  5. Thanks all.... Its a DSN dial. So its lumed pretty good. Not Watchdog good but defnitely better than rep lume. Dont think I'll be putting in more money into this. Its been modded to my expectations. Have a good weekend guys... Cheers
  6. Its a DSN. A bit more PAM lovin
  7. Interesting choice.... Bet there's a good story behind it. With a new nick, all ziggified reps are now priceless.. So ....does that make my 029 on its way back a The Zigmeister or a WD? Good to hear from you, RG.
  8. Right.... Crystal from Chief's most recent run back yesterday and off it went on my 111. AR makes all the difference and what a beautiful strap. On to the pics.... Have a great weekend guys. Cheers siesta181
  9. I find the current NFL draft extremely queer as well..... this draft especially. No clear cut can't miss prospect and they have to dole out over 35 million guaranteed to the number 1 pick (if he's a QB). What a mess.... No peytons or elways in this draft and yet the amount remains the same... Total crapshoot if you ask me. Patriots are an exception to the norm....Hate them for being so successful.... They are like Toyotas, boring but reliable.
  10. In terms of monetary returns, the highest earners in football will not get paid as much as the US superstars in baseball or basketball. No such thing as a draft where unproven rookies get millions. In soccer, players make money on the 2nd, 3rd and 4th contracts they sign. You got to show what you can do before you get paid. The draft in US pro sports is a good idea... it creates parity, equality and balance. Any Given Sunday. But someone need to check the amount of money being doled out to these rookies. Soccer success in the rest of the world is about who has the most money. Money can buy success on a consistent basis. Once in a while, you'll get a cinderella story but its very rare.The English Premiership has been won by only 4 clubs since its inception in the early 90s. Compare this to the number of superbowl winners during the same period. In A football, teams can be successful over a 10 year period through consistently good QB play. Might not win the SB (Jim Kelly case in point) but you'll be fun to watch. In soccer, teams can dominate consistently over decades. Manure has been dominating English league for close to 20 years now. Barcelona and Madrid has been dominating their league since forever.... cheers
  11. Yeah.... how did I miss that.... Catholics and Protestants backed clubs.
  12. Friday.... Ziggified Slevin While I await my 029's return from Canada. cheers siesta181
  13. I watch both Soccer and American football. Love them both to bits. Soccer for its simplicity and continous flow. Football for its meticulous detail and brutality (Footie and and rugby fans might want to differ, but I watch these as well). Yes I think soccer is steeped in history, rivalries and sometime politics as well. Some examples; Liverpool / Everton - Stadiums separated by a river, less that 2km apart. This used to be a heated rivalry back in the 80s but its somewhat friendlier these days, probably due to the fact that Everton doesnt have that much money nowadays. Barcelona / Real Madrid - Fiercely indepedent Basque club Barcelona vs the royal family backed aristocrats from the capital. There are other more heated rivalries which I am quite sure our EU members can elaborate on. Let's not even get started on South and Central American soccer. Countries have gone to war over a soccer result. Its sheer lunancy, I tell ya... siesta181 nil satis nisi optimum
  14. Skyland Bde disbanded... Dec 2008 ~ Feb 2009. Two Skylanders shot down. I have failed you, o Great Leader. I think 25th I coming... but I have no new watch wearing.
  15. +1 with Projectologist. Buying modded watches from members here is the way to go especially if you can't get in touch with the modders on the boards.
  16. I am going with wraithride here.... Most of the reps on show here are so accurate that its almost impossible to distinguish from the gens. Remember the golden rules 1. Dont go wondering into an AD with reps. 2. Dont' show up in gen fora with reps. 3. Dont go attending WIS gatherings with reps. We know because we KNOW what to look out for because we spend half our waking time on the fora. Others apparently have better things to do... Cheers siesta181
  17. Lani...you make me wanna spend some money on that BP. The DW doesn't look recessed at all from the pic. Wednesday.... Ziggifed Slevin Thursday.... IWC Doppel Cheers siesta181
  18. I was a ware of high quality reps even before I found RWG which was almost a year ago but..... before RWG, I had 3 hi quality reps - Port Chrono, fiddy and PAM 183. After RWG, the collection has grown to about 11 and close to 6k invested in reps, mod projects and straps over the past 12 months. Madness, not that I will be stopping anytime soon. and yes..... the IWC Aquatimer is nice... this is mine. Just get it...lol cheers
  19. That's a real looker Laz, I miss mine.... It should be on the way back from Canada as we speak. Hope to have it back in time for next week's wristies.. Cheers siesta181
  20. Rainy Tuesday...... Big Ingy
  21. Monday.... Franken UPO Cheers siesta181
  22. Yup I'd be interested to see how your lightbox look like. Mine sux....
  23. Ruskies' Aviator Watch.... Looking through my watch box and realised I have not worn this for a while..... realised that it deserved more wrist time so I intend to mod this with a diamond crown from debaufre and sapphire crystal. Anyone know's where I can get a 40mm sapphire crystal? Heva a great weekend guys. Cheers siesta181
  24. Welcome aboard the best watch forum IN THE WORLD.... Knowledge amongst the members here is astounding. Being new, you might want to read Toadtorrent's Noob Guide. That'll save you lots of time and heart-ache. Cheers siesta181
