  1. Welcome
  2. TT generally has the heart attack and then arises from the dead in time for the bar opening. He's one cool guy. Just don't pop a balloon behind him
  3. This watch is very impressive in the AD windows. I know it's not fashionable - but I think it's a looker. I'd add AR to that watch too - it'll be stunning. Enjoy!
  4. You're definitely just in the wrong circles. I was up at the pub on the weekend and I found that when I suggested they spread their legs to equal the Breitling's 'Distance of Climb or Descent' they became a lot more engaged in my conversation.... Which they expressed through the art of slapping...
  5. These are the best shots I've seen of this so far. Wear it well
  6. AWESOME guide - thank you!! It's true, chicks love this stuff.
  7. Glad to hear you're doing well and recovering. Sounds like you'll be out of luck on the sex front for a couple of weeks though If it helps, next hump night I'll be sure to think of you. Wait, that didn't come out right.....
  8. This is funny, check out this press release: "Wearing a Rolex Submariner and attending Rolex Benefits helped Owen Wilson realize his life was valuable and worth living" Rolex Watches Help Owen Wilson Recover From Attempted Suicide They were taking the piss out of it in the Guardian, and best of all I see that it comes from our very own.......MELROSE JEWELERS and their SEO team. If you don't remember Melrose Jewelers.... Anyway, here's the PR release for you - enjoy!
  9. Happy Birthday! Glad to read that you're doing well.
  10. :lol: Classic.
  11. The RWG ring has landed!! A big thank you to kenburg, kruzer00, and omni for all their help with it.
  12. The red sounds great for the UN. I'm definitely thinking of a brown strap for the Skyland, but I'm sure the gen croc will find a suitable home.
  13. I love it!! I need to get this brown strap sorted; I said I'd do it for xmas but never got around to it. The other option is a gator, they look pretty sweet on the Skyland as well. I'm a big UN fan too, so looking forward to seeing pics of that when it arrives. Which color combo did you go with?
  14. Happy Birthday!
  15. Looking good. The brown strap on the Skyland is looking awesome; I need to sort myself with one of those.
  16. That's right - nothing I can do to get the watch on my wrist. It's theirs to sell. In the worst case scenario they could get a ticking off from the local Trading Standards equivalent for misleading or deceptive advertising, but that doesn't put a watch on my wrist and I have better things to do with my time. It's more about PR for the store. Women natter and swap tales. Already they've created a Facebook petition fatwa (kidding ). As I said, I'm just disappointed - it would have been a sweet watch. I'll just have to get my Sellita jollies elsewhere
  17. Wrong thread. This is the thread for Jaymoi's 1:1 copy Bugatti Veyron Fbg par Herm
  18. Looks like its going to be Mexican chili night tonight then
  19. I'll wait and see if they try the same thing on a more expensive watch - then it'll be mine!!
  20. It was either a bait n' switch or it was a screw up by them. Either way, I didn't see a scenario where I ended up with the watch on my wrist - they didn't want to sell it. They offered a new higher price, but it was like starting at square one - I know you can get 30% off an Oris without even asking for it, and I've seen up to 55% off at ADs reading the forums. I was annoyed by the sales BS - 'it's below my cost' is what they said for the new offer, yeah sure buddy. It was disappointing more than anything - in my head I was already thinking of ways when I could use my watch when a kilometer underwater.
  21. I'm crestfallen after a great deal on a gen went pear-shaped. I was out shopping for the wife's birthday and, you know, got kind of bored and decided to look at watches. In an AD window they had a sale on with big red prices on some choice watches, which is a little unusual. Anyway I picked out an Oris Titanium Diver, tried it on, it looked great and said I'll buy it. So far so good. At which point they said "oh, that's not the right price on it." Basically they refused to sell it at the sale price in their window. I was pretty disappointed, mentally I already owned the watch. But I guess it's theirs to sell - I just wish they'd not screwed me around. On a bit more of a conversational note - it was interesting to see how many watches had noticeable scratches and imperfections that could be seen upon handling them. Generally I'm fairly relaxed about that kind of thing, but if they had been drop-shipped from GZ I can imagine a lot of them being sent back as flawed. (The point being - these are gens in an AD).
  22. Welcome J!
  23. Good to have you here Malky
  24. You're going to have to narrow down the choices a bit.....at least give us continent! Merry Christmas to all!! (PS Ken kindly lent me his favorite thongs, so I'm wearing them now.... )
