Oh, and Allergydoc;

I can't believe you post count in my bad news thread was 666!!

Haha you jinxed me now you bstd!!

This all sounds great!!

47 views and not a single idea!

I best take it down to my smith and see what he reckons.....you guys might want to check yours too if you have this version.

Seems very odd that Rolex is spelled R0lex, Oris is 0ris, Rado is Rad0, Tudor is Tud0r,

you get the idea, he is obviously getting away with it due to the spelling and using Zero's instead

of "O"

I've got one of Trusty's GMT2 Ceramic Ultimate's, its got Gen Swiss ETA which is modified for the GMT to work,

I was under the impression that it would work as a normal GMT ie, the same as some of my original stuff.

I know how the GMT works, I have a Gen Omega Seamaster GMT, the problem with this one is the GMT hand is to slow!

If I set all the hands to the midnight position till the date clicks over (bang on midnight) , when 12 hours passes, the gmt hand should be at the 6 O'clock position, in 24 hours it should be back at 12.

One full sweep in 24 hours.

In 24hours, my GMT hand is at about 22:30 on the outsize bezel..this to me is not right, this does not happen to any of my other watches, is this just the norm with this watch then?

Has anyone else noticed this and is it able to be fixed? not sure if its worth dropping off to my smith, if its normal then fine, not a problem, just wish I had known before i got it.

(Remember I put them all to midnight to start from, date just clicked over, everything is set to bang on midnight, hands, minutes, seconds and GMT)

Just for the record the hand stack I have is GMT at the bottom, then hours, minutes and seconds at the top, think this is the incorrect handstack version.

When setting the GMT hand, if you pull out the crown, you roll it one way and it changes the date, you roll it the other way and it moves the GMT hand *anti clockwise

Serial code Z754008

Yea it crossed my mind to sell my Omega GMT to get some 2-3 nice reps.

Kept the Original in the end, lol

DUDE!!

Long time no chat.........hey for the money, I really dont think you can go wrong!!!

46 views in the rolex room and not a single idea?

Come on guys!

I think the more simple the watch, the more chance you have of getting away with it passing as a Gen.

Specially if it has a good ETA movement and quality heavy feel.......

The more fussy a watch, the more things have to look spot on.

How can you be so sure then?

I have a Euromariner with Clarks crystal and Gen Swiss ETA (2836-2) its been serviced waterproofed and

had the edges of the bracelet "softened", its pretty much in perfect condition truth be told!

Its a V3 so no engravings of ROLEXROLEXROLEX, and it has the drilled lug holes.....what would you say is a fair price

for that at the moment?, I bought if off the Eurotimez site for $550, (I'm in the UK) Can't seem to see them on there anymore?

If you people could give me an idea of what to ask for, I'll list it in the FS section with photos and all the info.

Did a search and can't see any that have been sold in there.

Ta!

I way watched the whole vid and that ridgeback breeder who said

if the pup has no ridge she puts them down needs putting down

herself!

Someone would take that pup and have a very loving dog!

I know what roger means about time and the bulldog fitting his needs,

mine should fit in with my lifestyle well, gets daily walks but is also happy

to lounge.

Sorry to hear about the heatstroke, that's really sad mate

I hear ya bud,

I have a puppy, always loved bulldoggs, but their health issues kinda made me feel sick, why breed a dog that cant breath? or cant stand to be

in the sun for a reasonable period of time?

I also thought about the staffordshire bull terrior, but it seems all the thugs round here have them on a lead.

I ended up going for whats called a Dorset Olde Tyme Bulldogge, this is a bulldog of old, how they were 100 years ago before they started to

breed it with the pug.

There is all kinds in the mix with the olde Tyme, but essentially you have a much healthier, fitter heavier dog, mine however has 25% mixed Mastiff

in him too, this should keep the line going in the direction they want.

Infact mine was the only pup that did not have the "smashed in the face" look, he has a more elegant mastiff looking head.

He should end up smilar to the American Bulldog type breed but not as heavy....30-42kgs is where he should fall into.

He's 14 weeks now, but underweight, he needs another few Kgs on him yet but weighs 9.2kgs today.

I had an encounter today, from some hoodie scum smoking a spliff, covered in a rash and scratches, blood shot eyes and

obviously high.......he was in a bus stop waiting for a lift, he stopped me as I was walking Cody my Pup, he asked the usual

"Ere maaate is that a Staff?

Erm.......No its not.

Aaaah maaate looks wicked, waz E Much dosh?"

No. (I lied)

"I add wun of dem American Bulldog fukkas, was a monsta, we fed him raw meat so blood would drip down his chin, would

av Alsations and labs, and staffs, would tear em apart, we used him in dog fights, me mate got him to bite once an it

bit his shoulder, ripped a monsta chunk off him, and chomped it down, so me mate pulled out a gun and shot it dead,

I woz like.......Oh well.......means I dont av to put the f****er down now hehehe"

I was stood there thinking..........is this really happening?, he just told me he uses his dog in dog fights, and his friend shot

it with a handgun!?

WTF?!

I just made my excuses and left, I just cant believe some tool would say something like that to an obvious dog lover walking

his 12 week old puppy, it also offends me that he felt he could relate to me!

I need to change my image if scum like that think I'm on the same level, or maybe the drugs elevated him to working class?

Personally I hope his trigger happy friend trips and blows them both through the head.

Mate, those are absolutly awesome!

That is so crap.

How pants is that!

No worries .. just thought as you are close-ish.

Drop me a PM if you change your mind. And good luck with the wedding, I only got engaged on Wednesday, and am looking for a rep PAM for me and the best man.

(both are black dialed)

So.......When is it I get this Pam then?

Well, there's going to be a lot of his stock to shift

No offense taken, this is the kind of humor which has made the day pass smoothly As you say, time to move on and forget

Thanks, bro, I had a feeling you'd see it that way too

You're absolutely right there, Karma is a wonderful thing A massive heart attack prevents a deathbed repentence He's in the hot place, where he belongs, for the way he behaved towards Emily and her mum, he's had this coming for a long time. Justice is served

As for the party... The wedding is the 3rd, the reception is the 8th. Sadly, it's a full house, or you know there'd be invites on their way

Dammit.........I had access to 500L of beer too!

HEHE!

I wish!

I've a Skyland and a Blackbird you could borrow?

I've got the bracelets, a black leather strap or a rubber strap.

I suppose the Blackbird on leather could be smart?

TeeJay's not that far from us either!!!

And I've seen Bibbs's watches too, they are VERY nice........and i mean NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE.

Teejay, you could be in our neck of the woods within the hour!

Thats a saying I like.........What Goes Around Come Around, thats so true........I try and help people and be a good person, Karma is a wonderful thing!

So whens this wedding??

Could do with a party......lol

Ooops.....thats quite heavy beading at 9 too!

I don't even wear my Gens in the shower or bath!

LOL you geeks!

Looks real nice mate!!

Tub's not sure this hobby is right for you buddy!

lol........you seem to have lots of bad luck with these damd things!

I agree with ken, one less thing to get wrong, that's why I left it off mine.

I also went for drilled lugs for the older look.

Spidy, your a funny guy LOL

Glad it's sorted, it's pretty relaxed over there, but I can imagine

your stressed with a 1k order pending !!!
