  1. I'm with Oscar, but something else to bear in mind... If I discovered that he was wearing one of my favourites, such as a Panerai 111h, I'd simply have to dispose of mine immediately on general principle. Not good - I like that watch. Overall, I think I'd rather not know
  2. Then I'd have to do the same. That's what they call escalation, you [censored] [censored] [censored] [censored] [censored] Warning - I have a larger than average vocabulary
  3. I've seen a couple of PAM based skeletons at 44mm (which is about my ideal size these days), but they're pure fantasy, which put me off... If I see anything else on my travels, I'll letcha know.
  4. Yep - I understand he was banned from everywhere except RG
  5. hahaha - well, I'm glad I've not lost my touch, anyhow Of course. It's good being the boss
  6. Cool! I was looking at that one myself - looking forward to the pics
  7. Sorry Onze. We're talking about watches, as unlikely as that might appear.....
  8. Well, you get my vote I already bought my watch for this week month
  9. I'd be amazed if it wasn't - some of his other models look like they run 21js No argument. I want one - even though it's too big for me...
  10. Maybe - I've come across 35 jewels before, but not in something quite this cheap. However, as a company they seem to be legit - they also appear to have quite a lot of happy customers. I've been digging... Interestingly, they seem to do a lot of business with WW2 re-enactment groups. They have a few special 'vintageised' watches for the purpose.
  11. I'm no IWC expert, but there's something very peculiar about that - just looks 'wrong' somehow. Maybe it's me - is it a fantasy model? Edit: having had a bit of a Google - it appears to be a Portuguese perpetual calendar. The only problem is that - for whatever bizarre reason - it appears to have been built into the wrong case; a Big Pilot if I'm not mistaken. No wonder it looks odd. Gen below:
  12. The crystal on mine is mineral glass, but still looking just fine. This is the only shot I have that shows anything of the HE valve, but it doesn't show the whole thing, I'm afraid. I'll try to take another shot of it from the right angle next time I have the camera out... I like a lot of the other B&R models too - especially some of their more traditional stuff. Unfortunately, there's no reps of them...
  13. oooboy.... Did you even GIVE oscar her email address? nevermind... I don't know why I bother either.....
  14. MGI - that was uncalled for. A simple friendly comment like "why don't you drop her an email and ask - here's her email address" would have been rather more appropriate. It is you, after all, who has been trying to persuade many of us to buy from your contacts. I know you're only trying to help the guys find good deals, and I'm sure it's appreciated (the only reason I've not taken you up on it myself is that I have my own contacts in China), but it's always been my experience that when you start offering to help, you can't just expect people to take the initiative, as it is YOUR word they're going by and YOU that they trust. Not meaning to get on your case, but just a friendly suggestion that you might want to re-consider that post, mate...
  15. oops! I sincerely hope that John does better with TTK than that...
  16. It's there - you missed it. It's linked from both the home page and the relevant sub-section.
  17. Yeah - that's tasty too. I think I prefer the white faced one, but it's a close-run thing...
