  1. Very nice! Any chance of a lume shot?
  2. Beeeeeeautiful watches *drools* The pictures of the PO are my favourite, what a great collection!
  3. I don't think it is that strict, probably just checking that the material isn't prohibited i.e that its not a bomb, unless you have ordered a modified 007 Seamaster with grenade detonator in built! lol
  4. I ordered from Andrew (Trusty) too and I had no problem, yes on the ems tracking order it will say your package is in customs etc but that is normal. I received my watches from him within 6 days of order was great service and I'm definitely gonna use him again! I do not know what does happen if they actually take your goods but hopefully they wont. Good Luck!
  5. Hi guys, I've been looking and reading some reviews on the UPO as im interested in getting one. Ideally I want one on a rubber strap but would quite like a decent lume out of the box. Ive read that this will good lume http://www.tt88time.com/index.php?main_pag...e6c8b4e92372b50 but do not know about this one http://www.tt88time.com/index.php?main_pag...roducts_id=2605 I preferably like to buy the latter model but has anyone purchased any of these models from trusty are they as good as they look, or is it worth paying a little bit more and going to PT (assuming he is more expensive) or Eurotimez as he is recommended for his QC. Any input appreciated Justin
  6. I believe that silix has the right logo and trusty has the "clown feet" logo. From what i have read I think trusty's is the way to go, i am actually thinking bout purchasing a upo from trusty on rubber and am quite interested if people have more info on this thread too
  7. Wait till customs grab it and probe it!
  8. Luckily for me there is a little watch shop next to the food court in the shopping centre in my town so I was able to get my strap bracelet adjusted there for
  9. I'm sure that in the top geat Vietnam special Clarkson was sporting a PO on rubber but i couldnt catch a good enough look at it. Also i think Simon Cowell recently on xfactor was sporting a breitling, not too sure though because I dont know much about them as i'm more into Omegas.
  10. I bought this watch it is pretty nice, but i prefer my PO chrono. The lume appears to be pretty no existent on this rep but I suppose for the money cant really complain!
  11. Out of interest how much did you pay? ive been looking for this watch myself
  12. Narikaa has been a true gent and I have taken up his offer. Thanks for the help guys!
  13. So this is what I should go for? http://www.watchobsession.co.uk/shop/swiss...tips-p-132.html or could I use these? http://www.tickintimeworldofwatchtools.co....iers-1200-p.asp Thanks for the help guys I'll recheck thread again tomorrow!
  14. The problem I seem to be having is that if I try and push it in one end the other end does not stay in (if that makes sense) so I wanted something that will allow me to push both ends of the spring bar at the same time in order to get the strap back on. Also the springbar does not appear to be bent, and I like the feeling of being able to sort my watch out myself rather than go to a watch kiosk (which is what I did to get the bracelet resized as it was only
  15. Hi guys, I took the spring bar out of my PO chrono today with a small screwdriver but when trying to put it back in I was stumped and couldn't get it back in. I've been looking on the net for something I saw on a program the other day about Tag Heuer and it looks like this... Is there a place where I can get this relatively cheap or a cheaper brand? Many thanks
  16. Where can one find these? Will I be able to pick these up in the UK? EDIT: never mind I spelt it wrong on google. Thanks for the help!
  17. Dont know if I am using the search function incorrectly but I couldnt find the answer to this. So does anybody know if there is a certain product that is available to use in order to give a shine to a stainless steel bracelet? Many Thanks
  18. Hi guys I have been floating around here now for a few weeks and finally last Thursday put an order for an Omega Planet Ocean Black with chrono and Omega Seamaster 007 Limited Edition from Andrew at Trusty Time. I've got to say service was excellent at lunchtime today (GMT) I received my reps 6 days after ordering and I'm pleased with how they look. I know they wont be perfect and there are probably quite a few flaws in comparison with how the gens look, but I think they look cool which I guess is good as I'm the one wearing them! I only ordered cheap reps as they are my first and I want to give them a good battering before I think about getting anything more expensive but I thought I would show some pictures for you guys. The SMP is running on an Asian Auto 21J and the PO chrono is a quartz
  19. Sweet im from London this thread has helped me in terms of who im gonna deal with when looking for my first rep PT here i come! lol
  20. LOL, well everyone in Formula one must be crap if a Toro Rosso has passed them...OH WAIT what happened in Monza? Reason Hamilton got passed by Vettel was cos Kubica was being an idiot and Hamilton wanted to let him pass instead of gettin smashed up and losing the title. As for next year it should be really exciting slick tyres are back for more mechanical grip less aero dynamic grip and KERS (Kinetic Energy Recovery System) which is basically a boost button you push for about 8 secs worth of extra power per lap. I believe the wasted energy from the brakes is used to make this happen but im not 100% sure anyway it should be good! EDIT: Some more info on KERS here looks to be 80hp boost for 6.67 secs each lap...sound cool"
  21. This watch been received yet boston? If so any pics?
  22. Cheers Shundi (nice avvy btw lol ) Yeah I was confused by a lot of abbreviations on the site but I've just found the wiki part which has a lot of help. Edit "PS- isn't it "Guise" oops mebbe your right! lol
  23. Good point, very bad sportsmanship by the Brazilian fans against Lewis and the racial slurs he has had from the Spanish this year. Its a disgrace, even though I am a huge Hamilton fan I acknowledge that Massa is a good driver. Many mistakes made by him and Lewis this year and a bit of help from the FIA but overall it was a thrilling season with I believe 7 different race winners? Nice to see Kubica, Kovalinen (sp?) and Vettel getting their first race wins. Roll on next season!
