Now that's just EWWWWWWWWWWW!

No - I think it's the national sport....

LOL - I've done a lot of driving in both Europe and the US and never really had any trouble in getting used to driving on the 'other' side of the road.... You should try driving in Malta - I've spent a fair amount of time there and they drive on whichever side is in the shade

Quick. Change the subject before anyone notices!

What's worse is that I can't stand Soccer, but enjoy NFL & Hockey. Maybe we should emigrate

haha - another former UK noob here too You're in the right place. Don't skimp on the reading and ask questions if you're not sure about anything

:D :D Good to have you back, mate....

My wife (who hails from that side of the pond) said something similar

Nope - self-imposed. I've messaged him a few times (PM & email). I know he's reading them, but I've not had a reply. I'm worried about him, to tell the truth.

TomHighway is UK based.

pffft - Losers? Nonsense. King George just decided there were better things to do with his money than fight you lot....

Man, what a mess...

LOL - nope, I'm the only cheapskate in our family....

I don't know - she won't tell me (I guess she doesn't want me to know what it's like until I get it). The only one I've seen of that size, however, is made by Modalo (German company, I believe).

Good find. .... and this time I remembered to bookmark swissgallory... Lawrence has a cheaper version at $68 (!), but it doesn't look as accurate to the gen.

Ouch! Looks like you've paid well over the odds there, I'm afraid. $180 - $220 for the Link Cal S? It's only a 21J movement - normal rep price should be around $80 :-(

There's a cheapie rep of the Link Cal S available, but nothing high-end. If the cheapie takes your fancy, I know Lawrence (www.houseofsouvenirs.com) carries it and I suspect other trusted dealers will have it too.

That won't last long. Mrs. Greg tells me she's bought me a 40-capacity watch box for my birthday next month. I'm hoping that will last a while - my current 10 capacity box is full, I have two watches sitting on top of the box and another three on the way..... Problem is, where the hell am I gonna put the new watchbox? If I ever manage to fill the new box I'm going to have to either quit buying watches or start re-selling some of the less-frequently worn ones... I take it your SLR hasn't arrived yet? I'm hoping mine will arrive sometime this week....

No, he's not being rude. However, a lot of scam sites post photos of the gen watch then, when you order, you either receive nothing at all, or something completely different. Just because you've found a photo purporting to be a rep of the watch you're after does not mean that the rep exists, I'm afraid. In the case of the Cartier you're after, I think you'll find that you're out of luck - I'm not aware of a rep of that model.

woof!

woof???

That's okay - he likes having a second hand....

It's pretty close to the gen: If I hadn't just spent $400 on board software and hosting for a certain 'project', I might have bought it already... uh..... okay. Why?
