  1. From photos it appears so, the thing is just better finished unlike the cartel stuff which is crude me thinks but again the CG alone worth half the price of a beginner PAM. Worth getting one but my question remains, which cases does it fit best? :g:will the crown sticks out? or fully recessed? and the lever?
  2. Interesting, wasn't aware that the Ti look could be further improved Here's the how to: Titanium metal's corrosion resistance is due to a stable, protective, strongly adherent oxide film. This film forms instantly when a fresh surface is exposed to air or moisture. The oxide film formed on titanium at room temperature immediately after a clean surface is exposed to air is 12-16 Angstroms thick. After 70 days it is about 50 Angstroms. It continues to grow slowly reaching a thickness of 80-90 Angstroms in 545 days and 250 Angstroms in four years. The film growth is accelerated under strongly oxidizing conditions, such as heating in air, anodic polarization in an electrolyte or exposure to oxidizing agents such as HNO3, C®O3, etc. The composition of this film varies from TiO2 at the surface to Ti2O3, to TiO at the metal interface. Oxidizing conditions promote the formation of TiO2 so that in such environments the film is primarily TiO2. This film is transparent in its normal thin configuration and not detectable by visual means. A study of the corrosion resistance of titanium is basically a study of the properties of the oxide film. The oxide film on titanium is very stable and is only attacked by a few substances, most notably, hydrofluoric acid. Titanium is capable of healing this film almost instantly in any environment where a trace of moisture or oxygen is present because of its strong affinity for oxygen.
  3. Hi P4GTR, its a Corporate Identity Editions - MILITARY - Jagdgeschwader 72 "Westfalen", Germany More info can be found on this link -> http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jagdgeschwader_72
  4. My 5512 is taking a break today. The Flieger taking over Cheers, Rob
  5. Alternative as in non western
  6. You know you are loved so stay strong and positive! Have you tried alternative medicine, like Chinese? Rob
  7. Any vintage Rollie is as good They are all "Oyster" anyways
  8. That's a great looking watch, wear it in good health
  9. Thanks for the link. Locale is another point to factor in where almost every commercial brand names are quite well known from where I'm at. Typically a person from here would ask if its fake first before anything else.
  10. You made very good points there By-Tor. On a different note when a rep is spotted, a big fuss is guaranteed to ensued, why is that the case? It all boils down to the question of "You can't afford it" Stereotype at its best
  11. LOL On the contrary by wearing such a piece on land that is, would boast the wearer ego tremendously That aside, in the material world that we live in, watches are just another item for show and not for telling time joining other expensive toys/lifestyle the rich are accustom to, for the heck of it that's the very purpose why these establishment exist the first place.
