  1. Here are the dial pics from Eurotimez website:
  2. I've just had a look at the white dial EXPL II on Eurotimez new site. The dial looks quite good to me on the photo's, i.e. the outside of the hour markers look to be almost black and not silver like some of the other versions. By-Tor, what do you think?
  3. Today, Skyland Avenger, black dial
  4. Looks like Chris is nearing completion of his new site. Looking good!
  5. Genuine on the left in all pictures Is it just me, or my monitor, but does the lume at 9 on the gen look a bit misaligned? Great review, by the way, the yellow dial is also on my wishlist.
  6. I would think this will become very true freddy, and probably links up with this other post: http://www.rwg.cc/members/main-dealer-service-r-t91481.html More watchsmiths might become willing to reduce their charges to get the work in. The only danger is that if they become really desperate some of the more unscrupulous ones might attempt to take on jobs they can't handle
  7. I think these are awesome. I fancy the white dial, but that one is fantastic too. Nice pics as well! Hope you enjoy it.
  8. Hi djdante, Have you looked at the Skyland or the new Seawolf, again one's a chrono and one's not, but they are both very good reps. I've had my Skyland for 6 months and the A7750 hasn't given me any problems at all up till now. It was running way too fast when I got it (gaining 14 secs an hour) so I got it regulated at a local watchsmith. It now loses 5-10 seconds a day. I don't really use the chrono's at all, but if you do go for any rep with a 7750 read The Zigmeisterzumba's user guide, if you haven't already! Whichever one you decide on, enjoy it and let's see some pics!!
  9. AC/DC, For those about to rock tour, Glasgow Apollo, 1979 or 1980. I remember my ears ringing as I was running down Renfield Street to catch the last train home from Glasgow Central Station.
  10. Welcome to the forum amn. Check out the list of recognised dealers and have alook at what they sell. You might need to send them an email to find out what they have in stock.
  11. Just saw a report on this on TV. Horrific, especially if it's arson. I hope your relatives are ok and as Shundi said, stay safe.
  12. You've hit the nail right on the head here mate. 15th Anniversary for us this August and I totally agree with everything you said. Sure, my wife and I have had some real belters of arguments over the years, but we've always managed to sort it out. It is still quite simply the best thing I've ever done in my life. Congratulations to you and your wife TeeJay. I wish you both many, many years of happiness together.
  13. Doesn't do anything for me. Reminds me of a plastic 5 quid quartz job that you'd get a kid as a stocking filler at christmas! But, then again, I don't like any of the Pro-Hunter Rollies either!
  14. I've sometimes wondered what it would be like to really save a person's life. This guy literally saved hundreds, all at the same time. If any young kids out there are looking for a real hero, they don't need to look any further than this!
  15. Unfortunately, my WBA is being controlled by the dollar/sterling exchange rate at the moment
  16. I assume the police will collect all the destroyed cars and sell them for scrap to make up the revenue they will have lost by not imposing fines!!
  17. WAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!!! Gimme, gimme, gimme!! The black rubber and the yellow dial is a great combo. I wish you good health to wear it.
  18. I have a gen datejust with a tapestry face, which I have been wearing every day since March 1993. I have a friend who has a TT Sub and reckons he's a watch enthusiast, so I wondered what he would think of my Skyland Avenger rep. I asked him if he'd like to see my new "toy" and he asked if I would take it off so he could have a good look. He studied it really closely for a few minutes, all over the front, the back, the bracelet, everything. His comment was "Now that's what I call a MAN's watch. How much did that cost?" I said "Too much!" Considering the lume dot at 4 is way off on my rep and he didn't even spot it, I thought "What the hell! I didn't tell him any lies!
  19. Four or five months ago the British pound was worth about 2 US dollars and now it's only worth about 1.5-1.6. This means that a $400 rep now costs
  20. I felt the same when I got my Skyland. I was totally paranoid about the dodgy lume, but to be honest, no-one has noticed, even under close scrutiny!
  21. The site is very slow to load, but once it does you need to use the links on the left. If you don't see what you want on the site contact Chris and give him a description of what you're after. He'll reply with a price and availability.
