That is so awesome!!

Indeed - and to the best of my amateur understanding, since the oil collects gunk, the key is to have minimal amount of the right oil in the places it's needed and in none of the places it's not.

I guess the original advice is, if you own your own ultrasonic, a swish and dip is better than not doing a swish and dip. But for the 99.99% of watch owners that don't own an ultrasonic - don't pay for one. To which I would add, if you don't know how to disassemble a watch, you probably don't need to own an ultrasonic. It raises an excellent point about how we can all be swindled by reputable watch repair places though.

Some fine, fine choices there!

It's from Sydney Mardis Gras, so it was a 'homage'. Although, it would be kind of funny if it was from the foothills of Afghanistan More so if you'd seen all the men in hot pants surrounding it. Suicide go-go boys!

You don't want to know what it's made from Little brown lies....

You're apologizing to the Australian Federal Health Minister and Treasurer? Is there an international incident you've been involved in yet to reach the papers? And is a rabbi involved? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Abbott http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Costello

Ah, I get it now. It's a grown up thing. Husband and wife. A moonlit Saturday night. A hot tub. ....And TT's 'special' outfit:

Quotes can now be obtained from my publicist: Also lower back massages.

Just part of the quote-u-like service!

Nice link! Late entry at Basel 2007 The 'no lume' titanium dive watch. It was kind of fun, but they need more dials and cases. And you really need to be able to customize the dial.

All the interesting threads are now automatically moved to the VIP forum!

Thanks for that. It's an excellent upgrade - absolutely no doubt.

Cheers! How much extra was that?

Thanks for the great photo review!! Is that just the standard mineral crystal that comes with that AR? The Silix site talks about a sapphire one being available, wasn't sure which was which.

Kind of feel sorry for the poor little watch. It was probably sitting in it's box, looking forward to a life of gentle jogging in a all-female Malibu gym, being occasionally helpful in locating the nearest Victoria's Secret... .......and then Nanuq opens the box!! It wakes up hurtling down the side of an Alaskan fjord in a -18 blizzard strapped to a man who drives Land Rovers over watches and sets them on fire just to toughen them up!!

Yes, V pioneered the look for his fellow RWG members! http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=4753 You didn't like it then either!

I think Binda are just Italian distributors for some of those brands. Lorus is definitely a Seiko-owned brand.

Happy Birthday!! It's his birthday - it's always two polar bears on special days!

There's a links section at the top that should come in handy!

Whoa, whoa, whoa...back the hell up. It was the liquor talking, not the bottle....

Congrats on hitting 30 posts Dutchy! Hey, no one's counting your 1470 "I'm NOT a chick!" efforts

Enjoy!!
