when you check every time your blackberry light blinks red...

Nanuq - love that!...R

readying this puppy for sale later today... a Rolli 251...

welcome to rwg... the search button is your friend...if you find the "myths" post from the Zigmeister, you will get the answer to #1...which is....drum roll...no harm to the watch at all for the chrono to run all the time... not sure of the answer to #2...could be a stuck lever with the stop/start pusher or a whole lot more... good luck...R

a special thanks to all you "old skool pieces" for your sage advice, patience, reviews, wristies, sales, etc...especially DL, MP, BT, Zm, Lani, Hike, Andreww, Ubi, etc, etc...i "get" it now... R-

F!...that freakin 'Black Widow' is one sexy Daytona...it's on my radar...

@Ubi --> yes, lighting fast...hence the storm... now have a matched set of v1 CAs - titanium and ss...black and white...i kinda like Breitlings, ya know?!...

enjoy...R

i have quite a few jealous Breits in my collection as of yesterday's mail delivery... Breitling v1 Chrono Avenger - titanium CA (more pix to be posted in the Breitling forum)

the Blackbird is one of the best...and the brushed bracelet is one of the best... while "big dates" are cool, they are complicated -- thus prone to problems... R-

bump for a fun post...it shouldn't languish...R

nice composition in this shot!...a little photoshop on the background payment shadow and it would be perfect...damn near close now...great photo of a great watch!...R

chef...excellent...precisely why i posted this thought... just trying to think about how we can use "the ring" in some way to produce others...cost effectively and with the right tolerences...

got to thinking about this topic...and decided to post a reply on Francisco's original thread located here: Francisco's a7750 sunken date wheel fix: "the ring" thought i'd post this here, too -- as more folks might see it and comment... four words....precision plastic injection molding... i'm certainly not an expert in this field, but it seems to me that the metal machined ring could be used to make a form where these rings could be produced thru precision plastic injection molding...can't be much to make the mold/tool to produce this ring...and then you could simply crank them out for a very low cost...amortizing the mold/tooling cost, these could be produced rather inexpensively... amazing work to make that ring, Francisco! thoughts/comments...R

Tag Tuesday -- feelin the blues!.............................. no longer a missing Link...

when you dream of being named in Lani's will... when "fish on fridays" is a choice of rubber or leather... when you meet a girl named PAM and think of her as "base" when you almost drive off the road frantically blackberrying "PMs" and "PM sents" on FS posts... when you use Toad's Sliderule Guide to keep track of your dwindling paypal funds... when you search for Shundi posts ---- just because... when you vision members as emoticons... R-

thanks, Dudes!... this is a classic DL/Chief/ZigM piece...from the soccer field to the boardroom -- gotta love it!... R-
