Wow - congratulations!!

Maybe not the same, but one hell of an alternative! Hmm...let's see...2008... Ooh...decisions, decisions!!

Thanks for the kind offers! Ziggy has not just offered the bit I need, he's offered the right bit (specifically that it's a Miyota copy), and I'm indebted for his help Cheers!

<------<------< You're speaking my language!

I think this demands a wrist shot at least.

I just noticed the awesome results in another thread - BRILLIANT!! lol. And good work Corgi for being a sport

The info is absolute gold - thank you!

Nightmare. No chance of vacuuming up the missing 'N'? I lost the pearl from a PO bezel insert on the weekend - had high hopes of 'Dysoning' the entire house, and failing that, where I walk the dog. Until, that is, the Mrs smashed a glass...

Probably a dumb question, but oh well.... I'm trying to buy a replacement crown stem for an Asian 21j online (at cousinsuk). I read in one of Ziggy's posts that it's a 0.9mm stem. Does anyone know what Cousins calls the 21j movement? Here's a list of their names for them here Actually (for what it's worth) I'm tempted just to get a whole movement for other parts and use the stem from that. Also, if anyone knows a good place to buy these sorts of parts online in Australia, I'd be grateful

Davey has been organizing a GTG for the end of March just outside London too.

When are they going to rep the full 'patina' version?! Great high-res photos on that site BTW.

I know I had a ball - thanks guys! And yes, that same Paypal address would be handy for me too

Love the "heavy patina"...

And, of course, it depends on the question. But wait a wee bit, as long as the payment went through okay, the watch will come.

That is a nightmare. I'm not sure you can really win with customs in any country, don't know anyway about Sweden obviously. [Joking] Perhaps you could get it mixed up with something else you bought in China recently [/Joking] Otherwise if it doesn't actually make it through customs, perhaps that depends on the arrangement with the dealer. Perhaps this kind of counts as it not making it through. I don't know what Ruby's deal is. Commiserations anyway.

A week is nothing. Normally with drop-shippers there is a gap, then you'll get a tracking number, then you can wait for EMS to do its thing. TTK doesn't drop-ship so it's a slightly different arrangement. With Paul you get great prices, but the 30 minutes thing is crap.

Hey - it's March 7 here in Oz!! Happy B'Day RWG!!

Aaargh!! Stop showing me new cameras!! Now I need a new stills camera and a new video camera. :cc_surrender: I got a nifty camera that can do 640 x 480 30fps (progressive) and export files as Quicktime in the past six months and it's fantastic. But that Canon would take a gigantic dump on those specs. One stat I couldn't see on the Canon is what format it exports the files in. And the other issue is just the sheer size of those files. A 4Gb memory card full in only 13 minutes - once you start getting into high definition that's a serious rig you need on the PC side. By the way - 4Gb in 13 minutes....I love how they plan to bundle a only a 32Mb card with the camera That's, what, six seconds of film?!

Sheesh....just like a bus. You wait for ages and then three come along at once

...Must...resist...buying...new...camera... You're not helping! Enjoy it!!

Looks interesting. Cheers!

Aye, they're dark horses all right - waiting for the right chance, and then invading under cover of chiming cuckoo clocks.... Before swiftly retreating.

Whoa...that's not a mask. It's an entire NanuqTM replica fax-me-like pig!
