  1. very nice oli - as i've said from the other pics - one of the best looking rollies - congrats - wear it in good health but of course, If for any reason you get sick, PM me for shipping instructions
  2. couldn't wait to have it fixed and wanted to test it out today - I have a load of cheap straps I got form my local wholesaler for $3.50 each - some of them are pretty decent - well, I'd say great for the price - tried a black.. didn't feel right - the brown seems to fit the bill until I can order some higher end straps.
  3. low and behold I just checked my mail box about 9 days from USA to Canada bought from RWG2 member packed in a plastic bag and put in a lightly padded envelope - hardly well packed - but it arrived in one piece - the chrono pusher is stuck and doesn't work without excessive force - at 1st, It thought it didn't work at all - didn't want to force anything - then I pushed a little harder.... nothing - I said f.uck it and pushed excessively hard - CLICK! - the chrono starts beating away - the reset pusher is smooth as silk though - I won't be using the start pusher until I can get this fixed - the seller must have known of this issue and it was probably the reason he sold it - the price was reasonable but was not a good deal to say the least considering the condition. I still didn't get my tracking number which the seller said he would send to me last week - he forgot it at work, then was sorry he just forgot, etc. was suppose to get it today but uh, yea I don't have much motivation to take great pics as I'm not very impressed with the transaction - but the watch is good looking though even without AR - I can't wear it - the bracelet might fit a 6.5 or 7" wrist if that - I can't get it past my fingers after opening the deployment lol of course no fault of the seller - I'll have to source links or put it on a strap once I get that pusher issue fixed. the crown is wobbly and seems it will break soon, upon winding the watch you encounter lots of friction - it's abnormally hard to wind (better get my watch winder soon) - other than that.. oh yea, the dial is nothing to write home about with crooked markers and some having more height than others (seen under loupe) - whatever... I paid about $135 US after all was said and done anyhow here is proof it did happen : no post processing - just some crappy pictures for ya

  5. hey not bad greg how does the shock absorbing mechanism work on it? just try an under hand toss down a stair well to start
  6. so 9 days later and not even a tracking number : / I'll hang tight a little bit longer...
  7. the full editor opens when you click "ADD REPLY" instead of "FAST REPLY" or in "fast reply" click on "MORE OPTIONS" then you'll see the "Insert Special Item" I will spare your life this time
  8. the swiss 7750 is 30mm x 7.9mm and is 25 jewel I'm not sure what those 29, 32 and 34 jewel movements are above - interesting prices though my local guy sells the A7750 for $130 who's going to order one of these $66 bad boys to test it out?
  9. you biter! how dare you steal my thread idea post in my Watch Porn thread and I'll show you the secrets of youtube under the full editor - click on "Insert Special Items" scroll down to youtube, and post the last part of the youtube video in the left window for example knQuxZj9rTA and click ok
  10. no, I'm right with ya on the wording
  11. carry the 1 32.9mm plus the .2 of course
  12. f5 - your avatar so beats the old one
  13. it's a new satin paint - spun off from the flat black trend I've been seeing more often I seen it in real life - nice - my gf was like, wow, what's that! with matching rims to boot it's doesn't reflect any image but still has a shine to it - no matter if you like it - if chicks like it, it's can't be that bad
  14. ah that's good after all the stories, I find it difficult to believe anyone would still order to save what? 30 bucks?
  15. few watches look like monsters on 8.5" wrists
  16. beer - the problem solver
  17. who sells it for $120 free ship?
  18. a spin off from the greg got his car smashed with a tree thread. We all bought our vehicles for different reasons - some are expensive - some real cheap - some bought for luxury while others for performance - post pics of your car and tell us the story on how/why you got it I'll start with mine - being in Real Estate, it's somewhat mandatory that you drive a respectable car to carry clients in but I'm no rich guy so after doing a lot of research, It finally decided on this car - a 1999 Mercedes S420 - this car comes in various engines including a S320 (3.2l 6cyl) and two 8 cyl - S420 (4.2l) and S500(5l) and also a 12cyl S600 - all the same body and aside from the engine, there is a huge list of different options - the S600 comes fully loaded with all kinds of electronic gizmos. My S420 was a choice in the middle - I didn't want the 6 cyl because this is a heavy car and I felt the 6 cylinder would be underpowered, have too much stress on it and not last as long so I opted for an 8cyl but didn't need well over 300hp that the S500 has so the 275hp S420 would be ample power and save a bit of gas - I put 50,000km+ year so it adds up Color - well Black is the most beautiful - hardest to care for but once clean and shined, it's the best looking in my opinion - like a mirror I paid $17,500CDN +taxes, etc - came to about $21k (2 years ago) - a great deal considering this car new costs well over $100,000 - it drives like a dream - I instantly fell in love with it - plenty of power and handles great - super comfortable and clients feel like they are the president when they sit in the rear - black leather and burl walnut trim and plenty of leg room to stretch out and a large arm rest sits in the middle to sign house offers on. Over the past 2 years, I've changed a upper control arm, ball joint, 2 ignition coils (there is one per cylinder), spark plugs... uh... and light bulbs - that's it - it's been a tank and I'm very happy with the choice. This is the last year they made this body - many benz lovers swear by this style as the year 2000 brought a newer style that lost the Mercedes character - this is the vehicle leaders of countries ride around in - well use to anyhow but in 3rd world countries, they still do - so I drive a 3rd world country presidential vehicle
  19. this looks to be a great economical car but these pics makes me want to work much harder
