  1. posting nonsense in the loony bin?! Very strange indeed
  2. outstanding contribution to the forum! Great read
  3. big ole beast http://cgi.ebay.com/Rare-Military-DOXA-Big...id=p3286.c0.m14
  4. This watch is on my wish list - very close rep - needs slighter thinner markers and numbers - here it is beside a gen - daymn! it's a good rep how much$ how long to get? could I see a pic of the bracelet? thanks
  5. ah, the excitement of a new toy.. how I envy you pictures galore oscar - you know the drill
  6. upon further reading, I retract this statement it's true you wear gears out but it's so ridiculously insignificant - the rest of the watch is constantly working anyhow and will eventually need service. run it all you want, it makes little difference - in fact... silly me, I should have figured that based on my 20 year old Navitimer which had it's chrono running most of it's life and has never been serviced yet. (I'm not doing my movement any favors I know - it's time to bring it in but still working like a champ - oil must be dried out) Noobs that don't know anything about watches will appreciate the smooth sweep and seeing the chrono hand locked at 12, will think the watch is broken or fake.
  7. 5000 Military is by far my favorite of them all
  8. ask Josh to send you some pearls now but I think you're being over careful on the 2 spare bezel inserts
  9. I agree - 45mm is perfect for me personally and being a pilot the GMT is a better choice ....waits for the rep factories to take notice
  10. yep - wind it clockwise a few times to get it going - set time,date and just wear it - your movement will continue to auto wind itself throughout the day, unless you're sitting at a desk with almost no movement. if you find it's stopping, it's possible the movement needs more power to "work in" the lubrication and wear the metal slightly (on a microscopic scale) - the asian movements will have more load (read:friction) - slowly wind it clockwise about 40x (each wind being about 2/3rds of a full rotation) to get full power and let us know how it goes. we want pictures too
  11. the 750 is a GMT using an ETA 2893-2 for the extra complication while the 1000 uses the 2824
  12. if only Linz was here to witness this [censored]ing [censored] [censored] licking [censored] smacking thread oddly enough, pussy is accepatble - this one? not so much
  13. something to do with omega and time travel - a rip in the space time continuum if you will - the hands are there... just not in your time subdials and hands - they're out there
  14. Actually, that is the "rifling" from a gun barrel either way, it is fugly this version without the rifling marks imo, is much nicer : http://www.joshwatch.com/omse01013-300m-20...800-p-5073.html
  15. I like your thinking
  16. answered my own quesiton...

Thanks for sharing - until now I've never took notice to Doxa... ...now I'm feeling the love 45mm is perfect http://www.doxawatches.com/ad_home.htm anyone know the connection with Jenny watches ? here's a review comparing a Breitling SO with a Doxa Sub http://www.doxa300t.com/600tbri/600tbri.htm
  18. btw, we are all in the 'loony bin' section http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showforum=21
  19. hey imranbecks - you made it - we were certain everyone else perished in the crash - we have since ran out of food because of greg's total disregard for tomatoes and we have resorted to religion - we must "believe" - the forums are being worked on as we speak... let us pray
