  1. I've been in this game long enough to know that may never happen.

    Yeah, I know. Think of the savings. But, I'm not unrealistic Jody. If they can get those models I mentioned as close as the Planet Ocean or Steelfish? I'd bite. Those in house Rolex calibres. That's the beatch. The Speedmaster Moon watch is all there in tooling, component and movement availability. I would imagine that will be my next purchase. It's up to them.

  2. Everything happens for a good reason Pete. At least that's what my wife says. When you're looking at a flat tyre, it's a hard pill to swallow, but when you miss the 10 car pile up down the road, damn it all, you have to admit she's right. Personally? I'd rather have taken my chances in the wreck than admit that.

    Keep your eyes peeled on the 'Bay..........good luck.........

  3. Extra $100 to the board if the problem remains on Demsey's computer...

    @ RWG

    I had solved the problem with Firefox. But in the name of solidarity to RWG I have removed the program for the Firefox browser and have reverted to I.E. I hope the gesture is appreciated and that Doc's $100 will help in some small way 'keep the lights on'. You are all welcome and more to the point; all worth it.

    @ Admin.

    When Doc's PayPal clears for the $100 donation, please advise in this thread as a show to his, our, contribution(s). Do not consider him for a Platinum upgrade, it would just cheapen the gesture.

    Wow. 'Tis the season. Giving just makes me feel good.

  4. I tried to clean the cache yesterday. No joy.

    FireFox is free, but if you prefer to use I.E. browser to surf the rest of the 'net you can just dedicate RWG as your FireFox Homepage. You can open up RWG from your desk top by clicking the 'FireFox' icon. Bang. Which is what I have done. Run two browsers at once. Truthfully? I'll prolly give up on I.E. altogether. V 8 really screwed with A LOT of streaming vids, flash and compatability from Netflix, YouTube, news sites etc. I had to revert back to V 7 after the auto update.

    If you're stuck at work on I.E. you can, as 'Member X' reported, just enter a reply as "Place Holder" or similar, submit that, click on your 'Edit' icon from the thread and you will get a clear field there to compose, cut and paste, editor etc., and as always you can compose in MS Word, Notepad, or Wordpad, then cut and paste.

  5. Get a Skyland V3. Amazing. If you like Breitlings, of course. Is it all Rolex all the time for you?

    I have a Vache Malte Classique for 'big paople' stuff; weddings, funerals, mortgage refinance. and a PO Chrono because I wanted to test out the 28,800vph 7750 thinking it may help the 116520. It didn't.

    Breitling are nice, maybe the SOSF. The 'pilot' watches are too busy of dial. I don't know any pilots who wear them. The E6B slide rule bezel is a joke. A joke only pilots get.

  6. haha it would be a love fest. I'd do me baby! hump.gif

    Sure and it would be the best you ever had, but then you'd shoot yourself and your other self for seducing you, unearthing your latent homosexual tendencies? You couldn't let that leave the room. I'm telling you, no one would get out alive. Maybe me. Because;

    Roses are red

    Violets are blue

    I'm a schizophrenic

    and so am I

  7. I even tried insulting you guys and that didn't work, but this whine festival go's on for 6 pages? What am I doing wrong? Please. Tell me.

    Have you tried calling the Pope a Nazi? That's usually good for 5-6 pages. If the traffic hadn't picked up over the last few months I was going to start an OT thread myself. "President Obama; I would probably like him more if he only got C's at Harvard too".

    No, but, I've been at this a while, if you really want to stir the puddin' all you have to do (and this works in the non-virtual too) just hold a mirror up to a person. They hate that. If you insult someone and the insult is baseless, they won't care. If they go off, you'll know you hit their war nerve. Have you even read my last four posts on 1.1?

    Two truths;

    We see and despise in others, those traits we see and despise most in ourselves.

    Put you, and your exact moral, intellectual, and physical double in a locked room with a gun. How many walk out?

    None. It will be a murder/suicide.

    I can't believe 'Corgi' doesn't like my signature gif. It's hot.

  8. Nothing.

    None.

    Been at this too long, 25 Rolex reps over five years. Pared down to ten trustworthy, handsome, if not correct to genuine, watches.

    I'm not out of the game though. Just waiting for the true 'grail' watches to arrive. V100 or whatever, not another single cent until they 'get it right' with the Submariner, Sea Dweller, and Speedmaster.

  9. It has to do with the browser we are (were) using X. I.E.? At the urging of members (over years) I have switched to 'FireFox' from Mozilla.

    Happy to admit I have been missing better board performance. The Reply/Fast Reply box error is gone, the whole board runs smoother and faster. Before I get too used to FF I'm going to try Google Chrome and then settle on one or the other.

    I still don't 'get it' tho'.

  10. I am 'Demsey' I was mentioned.

    Welcome Mat. Get it? Don't usually welcome too many noobs in the introduction threads, prefer to bump into them in the hallways, but as you are an Aussie, after all, welcome! As 'lanikai' pointed out you are in large company here with fellow compatriots. Never met an Australian here yet that I didn't like. After six years on these boards and thousands of members, that's a hell of a statement. From me.

    You seem to be well on your way Matt, Joshua is top notch and has been my dealer of choice pretty much exclusively since he started. Going on four years now I believe. That's staying power in 'replica'. I'm sure there are a lot of legitimate dealers on the 'net nowadays outside our recommended dealer (collector) list, but within price ranges 'all replica are same', so you really, as they say, need to 'pick your dealer, then your watch'. 'overwatch' may be legitimate, but why chance it? If there is some watch you fancy that one of our dealers does not list at his/her site, then inquire if they can source. Chances are they can.

    Cheers and have fun!

    ps Don't mind 'Doc', he's just on the appropriations committee. Don't let him bully you into donations or membership upgrades. 'Dancing girl' massage come grata, just have to use your illusion.

  11. Hey Dems,

    Even old stagers like me use a decent browser, and Google Chrome is the only way to fly!

    (They even have an incognito window to hide your pornsmile.gif)

    Get with the strength mate!

    O/S

    :lol:

    Well, I'm not such a pot hole in the middle of the road in the way of progress kind of conservative, but I am a conservative. If it 'aint broke........ Until now I've never had the need, but I can go with the flow...........I'm on Firefox now and the error is gone. I'll give Google Chrome a try tomorrow I think Don was supporting that browser too.

    Cheers for the help!

  12. Am I the only one getting laid on a regular basis?

    If you mean; "Am I still merely the engaged guy here?" Yes. 'Dancing girl' stays :hammer:

    No comment on my latin humor? I was very pleased with my post here....strange :wounded1::black_eye:

    Oh, was that Latin? I thought you may just have passed out and crashed your forehead on the keyboard........ :p

  13. No, it is a good thread. 5 pages, but it came as a surprise. The tenet of it. I'm a [censored] by nature and considering RWG original recipe? I think the Noobs here are handled with kid gloves. Requests/pressure for patronage from the member group notwithstanding. It did bring awareness, as I was oblivious. Still kinda am.

    As far as the other; if you were banned here, you'd just be yelling SPARTA! by the end of the week. If the missus doesn't want you to be online this often, well, then, yes. The ball is in her court. Good luck with that. :)

  14. This is obviously a misunderstanding. I think GM has been reasonable. I think everyone has been reasonable. Except my contribution in the original thread was pissy. I apologize for that. I don't even remember posting there. The good news is I have gotten laid since then.

    And I'm really not sure how, but if you give me some time, I'm sure I can pin this on Doc too. I think if Doc sent GM a suitable bracelet it would be a kind gesture. Doc?
