Thanks. I know about the gen parts at ofrei, but as I said above, I'd prefer to go rep because I'd be sure the parts would fit.

I've been haunting all the forums with this question - I need to replace the stripped crown/tube on my SMP Chrono. I was thinking gen for a while, but every repair guy on the forums I've contacted told me that a gen may or may not fit. I'd prefer to source a rep crown/tube somewhere so that I don't spend money on the gen crown and tube and then find out they could not be installed. It appears speedy would do it with rep crown/tube, but his turnaround time is something like three months. Any other suggestions? Thanks

Looks like a wannabe Omega Moonie.

Might as well get a gen PO with it, too.

Yep.

The method that I use for getting spring bars off in about a second with virtually no risk of a scratch is dental floss. Not my idea, but it works great.

Great shots! (Waives to fellow A700 user).

How did I miss this? Somewhat belated thoughts and prayers to you, Nicola and Robin. Hope it's just a scare and nothing more.

Just bumping to see if BNWMan got his watch. So is the final verdict - the "real" V2 is out of stock everywhere?

Let me introduce you to my best friend: It's all relative. I decided a long time ago that if my hair started to go, I would just embrace the hairless look. It started its retreat, and one day on a trip to the barbershop I made the decision to crop it real short. Upon coming home, my wife declared that it made me look like a member of the "Hitler Youth." I concentrated on the "Youth" part and took it as a compliment. She has now done a 180 and says real short hair makes me look like Brad Pitt (trust me, I don't). So, as I said, it's all relative. Don't let your mother determine what looks good on you. Or, you could always go retro and rock this look, and no one will be the wiser:

Many, many people are rude in person. Add to these people's normal rudeness the anonymity of the internet and what do you expect? "The world revolves around MEEEEEEE!!!!!" It's not this forum, it's every forum. Hell, just go outside.

Reg's guess was a Seagull 25J, but he pointed out that he's no expert, either. Is the Seagull better/worse than the standard 21J? Anyone know what the bph is on the Seagull? Thanks

This is Narikaa's Aquaracer 500M. He didn't know what the movement is, so he sent me a photo, which doesn't help me much - I can't tell a DG from an ETA or anything else. I assume it is the standard 21J, but can anyone tell?

Great news. Now, can we find out where the seller got the rep? Sounds like it was a great one.

Your review is making me buy it!! Very hard to tell whether it is V1 or V2 from dealers' photos. Plus I saw a discussion on one of the forums that there may be as many as four different versions. As must as they are "trusted" dealers, I don't really trust them to tell me whether it is a V1 or V2, or even actually know for that matter.
