Col I am in Melbourne but going to be taking an extended leave from these forums unfortunately.

Hey mate, hope all is OK.

Col.

Howdey and welcome! Sounds like you will fit in well here. Make yourself at home and have fun posting.

Regards, Col.

Loved it, ta mate.

Col.

Let me see, listed as a scam, high prices. Why even ask when there are so many great dealers here?

But if you must know I happen to have a pic of their shop front.

Col.

There are perfect reps. Got a motza? Go HERE

Appart from J&W, Ebel Discovery, De-Wit Acedamia, MB Timewalker etc, etc.

Col.

I would normally vote "smart" but bears know how to swim, too...

LOL, that is NOT a happy looking bear! I love the look on his face. Far too close for comfort tho.

Col.

You're fitter than me matey! I realy don't think I'd cope with that any more.

I maintain that the best way to see that part of the world is from a nice heated carrige on the WP&Yukon

Speaking of bears, I love this sign!

Col.

Hey buddy, welcome! Glad to have you back.

Yep, a hell of a lot has changed in two years. Reps are better and more plentiful maybe even cheaper!

Enjoy.

Col.

Hi and welcome. Addiction to Pams can be expensive but you came to the right place to enshure you get the most bang for your buck!

Regards, Col.

Oke, I was hopeing I may have a cpl or be able to get them and send 'em over. Sounds like I'm not. Give me a day to try something else other wise the best chance is to order your next piece from one of the big Pam guys. DVN or T4D come to mind and get a few pins sent along with the watch. Both of these guys will proberly have them on hand. The value is just too small to bother a dealer with for just the pins. We'll get the pins somehow, forget having to get new deployents.

Col.

Special in what way? Length? End fittings?

Col.

100 bucks for a sterile Navi? Gotta be faux chronos, shurly.

Water Resistant: Impermeable to a depth of 100 meters

Realy?

Col.

Can't help with the bars but I can with your english

It's actualy a French word so english is not totaly correct I supose but it's "deployent" not "deployment"

I gather they are not just standered spring bars?

Col.

Was the letter adressed to you? Was it registered? Never sign for any letter unless you are expecting something important! If they want your sig, it's gotta be bad. Depending on the post office rules there it is an idea to used a different name on any pkg as well. Most POs will allow you to P/U mail if the addy on your ID matches the mailing addy. The deny, deny , deny route is usualy best but in SU I realy don't know. The fact they are dangling a promise of not giving you up to IWC tends to tell me that they are on thin ice here. Why make promises like that if they are on firm ground? If it was cut and dried they would just say "You owe us, pay up." Is there a free law advice service in SU? Ask them for guidence if there is as Swiss law is wierd and tough.

Also, move countries

Good luck and regards, Col. (who thanks his lucky stars he does not live in an EU police state or SU).

Wind VERY carefully! It is best to advoid winding a 7750, rep or gen but the rep in particular. Nice and slowley does it.

Col.

I wish Homer did Tourbys in 44mm.....40mm is a bit too small for my liking.

Mate, these may be 40mm but wear much bigger. The dial is larger in dia than most 40mm dials.

Homer: I'd say so. I'll ask around at RWG1.1 and get back to you. We'd be happy to see you over there BTW.

Col.

Perfect choice of strap for that beauty mate!

Col.

Hey watchgal, what part of OZ are you in? I'll add you to the Aussie members list.

Col.

Personaly I'm waiting untill they do a good rep of this:

Then the best Omega rep will be a no brainer!

Col.

Are you trying to be a smart ass or what?

Col.

I wouldn't call that a rep. poor imitation more like it. My sisters father in law has just finished a rep Lambo, space frame, gen engine and running gear. THAT'S a rep! Mind you, he's also hung a pair of whopping great Garrett turbos off the engine

Retired F1 engineers get bored quickly.

Col.

Eeeeks! A hundred bucks each?

Also, they are NOS. How old he does not say. Chances are they may be nearly buggered anyway. Worth it if you have a gen vintage piece but there's other stuff I'd rather spend 100 smackers on.

Col.

EDIT: Just noticed, you wanna sell? They publish your IP!

Woh! Yodap, if that pic was any bigger . . .

Col.

Newie on me too. The only references I can find are a cpl of google links to crappy rep dealers, one called "watchcartel.com"! Jandrew? Is that you?

Col.

Screen printing wpould be good but it's more expensive for small runs (no prob for you) and is hard to get perfect at this scale as your wife no doubt knows. I'd be thinking of doing dials if you can print small enough.
