This sounds like someone who has either shared account info, has a weak password, or does not have an up to date computer with adequate protection.

Don't complain. You get to live in Hawaii. The temperatures here the last few days weren't dangerous, they were fatal

Excellent review and nice pics!

Loved that watch so much I had to buy the gen as well. Mine is on Omega mesh.

NICE!

PICS Pls!

I could use a Breitling B1...

Still praying for a rep!

I can put a movement together in <30 seconds.

a) Put all the pieces into the smallest plastic bag you have.

Place the bag on a hard surface like concrete or an anvil.

c) Heft a 10lb sledge hammer...

d) I think you get the idea by now lol

The only problem is it will be difficult to service in the futre, and it won't be very accurate but boy will it be together.

No idea on the movement. Don't even bother looking for a rep - I've tried. The only reps out there are VERY bad.

I have heard that a new rep MAY be coming this year....

Any source for the 4813's with the correct tall handstack?

The case looks like it was once gold plated and most of it has worn off. I'm guessing this isn't worth squat, but I sure hope it is because I have one that's similar.

Well, I'll take a couple of 2824/2836s and a couple of 7750s seconds at 9...

Happy B-day!

Yeah but it's a "dry cold"

except it's not a rep

Too bad about the He valve, otherwise I like it better than the gen.

So how is the "all night glow" with that stuff?

Compared to c3 that is...

Heh, what a YO YO.

Err... I mean nice YO YO man!

Looks like a UPO to me. The markers on mine were ivory as well. You should be able to see the slight AR coating on the inside of the crystal. There is none on the outside.

Howdy from up north!

Welcome to the world of spending way too much time and money on fake watches lol. Seriously though - it's an addiction just as bad as drugs.

I didn't want to think about this one...

I saw one at an AD and knew I had to have it. I have a 'gently used' one on the way.

Maybe not THE watch, but it is till I decide what THE watch is.

Looks like a gen 2836 to me, but then what do I know. Can you post another pic with the rotor turned 180 degrees?

Heya.

Applecare is worth it. Applecare IS the extended warranty. I would go with the apple wireless mouse and keyboard. If you can wait till macworld 2009 they are supposed to be refreshing the mini line. Otherwise I would get a new macbook, you'll wish you did even though you have the windows laptop. I was a lifetime Microsoft user till about 6 months ago. I've been working in IT for almost 20 years. It sure makes using the computer at home relaxing, I don't have to deal with the same stupid problems as at work.

As Slartibartfast said,

Breitling aerospace

I just love the modern look with italicised font

Breitling Emergency

The most James Bond-y of any watch around at the moment

Bell Ross Aviation

Notice a ani-digi theme here?

Emergency first, but any of the above

So is anyone up for this?

I want to do the mother of all lume 'MOAL' comparisons, but I'm sort of low on cash at this time of year. I can't afford to spend a couple of hundred dollars on the experiment, only to end up with a pile of lume that I won't use, because I'm betting that there will be a clear winner.

I'll post pictures of the powder at magnification under a microscope, daylight lume dots, and night lume dots at 30 minute intervals with the same ISO/Aperature/Shutter/White Balance settings. All shots will include an Orange Monster for comparison.

All test samples will be applied to a pre-painted Titanium White subject.

I need *small* samples - just enough for a few test dots of popular colors of Nocti, Tritec and Glow inc.

I already have AF green and orange, as well as the 3 Nitro Lume colors, and an assortment of premixed 'Ready Set Glow' paint.

Please PM me if you are willing to send a very tiny amount of any of the above. RC Tritec is closed till the new year so this will have to come from someone who already has a supply.

Thanks,

smc

No Tritium, no love. This is doubly true because it will be crap rep lume.

Thanks for the help

So can anyone confirm that the 45mm asian non-UPO is bigger than the 45.5 UPO?
