Before the Internet, before porno videos, before XXX theatres on 42nd st, before you could imagine a time there was porn...there was porn. Very austere & traditional timepieces with concealed secret compartments depicting graphic mechanically animated and intricately painted sex acts. Some featuring such taboo match-ups as three-ways and multi-ethnic couples. Generally the animation consisted of the "thrust" with others much more complex. All produced by integrated or separate automaton movements. It's a rich & dirty tradition that continues today with some of the most respected watch companies (Ulysse Nardin, Blancpain, Chopard, Hublot and Gerald Genta) and not forgetting Svend Andersen selling their own modern haute-porn. Rarely advertised by any of them and some with price tags well over $100,000 US.

Great watch on a blond hairy Norwegian

BTW you have always had the best avatar picture

But we do not know if its this watch or this one? or even if it may be this one? Unauthorized Timepieces Another irregularity that has come to light in the investigation of Apollo 15 was that Scott had on board two timepieces (a wristwatch and stop watch) that were not part of the normal mission equipment. During the preflight training period, Scott had agreed to evaluate these timepieces for the manufacturer at the request of a friend. Thinking they might be useful, particularly for the possible emergency timing of a manually controlled propulsion maneuver, Scott carried them on the mission but without prior authorization. NASA has deliberately withheld the name of the manufacturer of the timepieces to avoid commercialization of this unauthorized action. I hate to repport this nanug but: It is known that Jack Swigert with almost 100% certainty wore a Rolex GMT-Master on the abortive Apollo 13 mission. He was wearing two (2) watches in this flight. In footage shot during the Apollo 13 mission I've only seen the Speedmaster visible. But it is probable and likely that he wore the GMT under a cuff as there are pictures of him wearing a non-chronograph prior to the mission and two watches afterwards. Unfortunately Mr. Swigert passed away some years ago of cancer so we can not simply ask him...

My old daily beater. Bought from Andrew back when he joined RWG I more than 2 years ago. This is possibly has the most accurate AP JA dial layout in the replica universe..or do you have a better one?

Sometime in the 1970s, Russian watch brand Poljot, made by the First Moscow Watch Factory launched a new chrono movement: the 3133. It possessed a 23 jewel movement, manual winding (43 hours), it was essentially a modified Russian copy of the Swiss Valjoux 7734 of the early 70

Venus and Lemania are not related..forget Lemania in replicas

TTK (Neil) on mars

How a new date wheels and a great photographer can transform a replica is beyond word..marvelous g.

I love your setup PIX You write: Philippe PATEK 5070 White gold plated Movement : copy of the Lemania Venus handwind (actually Seagull ST-19) Should say: Philippe PATEK 5070 White gold plated Movement : Copy of the Venus 175 handwind Chronograph (actually Seagull ST-19, but often incorrectly described as a Lemania) FYI: The incorrectly description of this a a Lemania movement is one of the oldest and most stubborn myths in the replica world

"Interesting note concerning "the moon watch" : The Omega speedmasters engraved "the first watch on the moon" are fitted with 861 movements , and the previous models have only the sea monster logo : anybody might think viewing thoses backs that the speedmasters fitted with the 861 are "the moon watch" In fact NASA qualification took place in 1965 at this time the 861 movement was not available and the purchasing for the astronauts speedmasters where bought before the 861 introduction. So the Speedmasters of Apollo missions which goes on the moon where not equipped with 861 movement Very curiously Speedmasters fitted with "the first watch on the moon" engraving are NOT the moonwatches , the previous ones without the engravings ARE the moonwatches ! , refer to the NASA section of this site for more details" For sure at least the two models of Aldrin and Armstrong : 145.012 and 105.012 both fitted with the Omega 321 movement. The 3 different types of Speedmaster known to have been worn on the moon are the 105.003, 105.012 and 145.012 all theses models are fitted with the Omega 321 caliber Occording to Omega informations no other types of Speedmaster have ever been on the moon , excluding the theory of a Speedmaster powered by the caliber 861 worn on the moon (at least as an official watch) There is no evidence of any Speedmaster 145.022 fitted with caliber 861 ever worn on the moon http://www.speedmaster-mission.net/

You are keeping me awake with this exiting stuff Christian I never knew they counted telephone calls in 3 minute intervals.....I feel young Edited: Picture that should have been in post #1 in this thread

Is the Tachymeter scale running in the oposite direction or is it getting too alte for me....and the long minute counter divisions seems a little odd too

What about this OMEGA?

A Discussion on Mycroft's Psychosis: When Intervention Is Indicated... Posted by Mycroft on December 30, 1997 at 20:01:45: In many of the things we do, and the hobbies and interests (such as watches and horology) we have, there is always a very thin line between appreciating a subject to crossing over to that of obsession. I am writing this discussion in a forum whose participants would field the whole spectrum from one end to another when it comes to watches. See if you can identify yourself in some of these descriptions below. This maybe, I believe one of the first consolidated descriptions of a syndrome that I shall name Mycroft's Psychosis for obvious reasons. A PSYCHOSIS is defined as "Any major mental disorder of organic and/or emotional origin characterized by derangement of the personality and loss of contact with reality, often with delusions, hallucinations or illusions." We shall begin with a typical patient's profile before going into categorizing the major and minor symptom criteria that would help with diagnosis. Patient Profile Sex: most often male Age distribution: usually adult onset, although there are those cases who begin when young and remain latent till triggered at an older age. Incidence: hard to tell, because very often these look like otherwise normal humans. Many go underground and harbor an occult (hidden) following. Symptoms The symptomatology of this disease is very complex because it embraces a combination of 3 other more commonly seen conditions. These include: Obsessive Compulsive Neurosis Bipolar (manic-depressive) Disorder Substance Dependence Often the cases can be classified into mild, moderate, severe and a fourth, extremist/fanatical groups. Some of the symptoms may be identified by answering a simple questionnaire and scoring the result. These questions are arranged to show the order of severity (mild to fanatical): Questionnaire Do you think about watches constantly, even at inappropriate times? Do you constantly search for any material you can get your hands on watches to read, researching your favorite watches to the neglect of your friends, relatives and loved ones? Are you constantly on the internet at RWG or TRC reading every last post and raking up an enormous bill? Do you often buy watches whenever you can, depleting your finances to get that special watch you lust for? Do you hoard your watches and lie to your spouse and family, hiding the true number of watches that you own? Are you able to justify to yourself giving transparently superficial reasons why you need another watch? Do you minimize your symptoms, telling yourself that you can stop this at anytime and deny that there is a problem? The average number of times that a normally adjusted person glances at his watch a day is about 5-6 times, it is considered within normal limits below 10 times. Do you constantly glance at your watch even if you don't need to know the time, just to admire your watch or its face? Are you or have you lost friends because your conversation centers around watches and horology to the exclusion of all else, thus boring them to death? Are your "non-watch related friends" avoiding you? When introduced to a person, do you first glance to see what watch he/she is wearing even before you look at his/her face? Special Questions to Identify the More Severe Cases Do you engage in watch stalking activities? Have you started naming your offspring and pets by names such as Audemars or Patek? Or have you changed your own name to these? When you have insomnia, do you count your watch ticks in order to try to sleep? Do you then fall asleep only to the ticks of Lange or Patek Philippes? Do you flick your watch-arm just to hear the delicious sound of your watch winding? Some will make a ballistic movement called hemi-ballismus, while others use a more graceful arc giving a choreiform (dance-like) movement. Do you have panic attacks or harbor irrational Separation Fears of losing your watch? Do you still have flashbacks, dreams, cold-sweats and hallucinations from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder of the near-death experience of losing your first watch? Do you harbor a secret wish of having your favorite watch surgically implanted into your wrist so that you would never be without it? Are you exploring the possibility of having a direct high-speed fibre-optic link to the Timezone server? Many of these symptoms are culled from a life-time of observation in the afflicted such as myself. I am posting this so that there will be a greater awareness and identification of the problem, then you can decide what you want to do with it and how to proceed. Like Alcoholism, another form of substance abuse/dependence with similar characteristics, denial of the symptoms and problems is a critical feature. I leave you with just these thoughts and invite your comments on any mistakes of omission or commission. Lastly, its the end of the year if you have any resolutions, and please do not take this too seriously! TC

sad story indeed @RG Since this problem obviously will not be (properly) fixed with the present setup.. Let me ask something even more horrendous just for the fun of it. Would it be possible to design a belt or several small belts to help out the situation (instead of using only gears)?

Elementary

wow that small seconds is pretty crazy...multiple error if you ask me....does it relly say "50" after 55 or is it just a poor pick?
