Has anybody seen a reputable supplier of ladies Tag Aquaracers, the misses fancies a Rose Gold one but I can't find a decent supplier!

very nice post, once again you amaze us all...

Seriously, do not push crystals out with your thumb... I am speaking from experience, i did this and sliced my thumb extremely deep. If you must do it yourself put something solid between your thumb and the crystal!

If you do get a Asian 7750 don't use the chrono or likely hood is that the second marker will jump and aline at 12.01 instead of 12.00. Other than that it'll be good as long as you give it a service!

If your looking for an easy e-commerce website, try googling Actinic. Pretty cheap but powerful stuff...

Welcome and i hope you can keep your sense here and not get addicted

Utterly Lovely! I couldn't hope to achieve anything like this without buying a lot more equipment than my standard point and shoot!

Expert round will be fantastic!

definitly woman!

u cant live with, talk to, sleep with, argue with or have a fight with ur watch!

I can do all the above with my watches, granted its one sided, but i prefer one sided fights!

+1 for the chick

RADO do loads of watches that come in man and woman sizes, depends what she and you like!

21 - Tag Carrera, Omega 42mm PO, DSN PAM 292

Next I want IWC Slevin and Porto, also fancy a DSSD but can't bring myself to get a fake Rolex....

When asked what he would do to solve the economic crisis if appointed as Federal Reserve Chair, Jim Rogers responded "Abolish the Federal Reserve, and then resign."

Here's to hoping he gets appointed!

Ha, yeah before he gets assassinated and replaced with somebody who'll reinstate it... I certainly wouldn't want to try and sort out this mess.

The fact the fed is privately owned and run is a utter joke... It doesn't serve the country it serves its owners... Can this be sorted? I doubt it, as the people who own it fund presidents.

You've very similar taste in watches to myself. I got a Tag Carrera as my first rep, and have wanted a IWC Portuguese for awhile.

Personally i see the Carrera as more of a smart casual/sports watch and the Portuguese as a dress watch, which is why I could justify owning both!

It all comes down to what situations you think you'll be using this watch most, only reason I don't have a Portuguese is the dress occasions I go to at present aren't often enough to warrant a dress watch....

You'll be happy whatever you get but the Carrera is more practical and I think you'd get more ware out of it!

DSN's 292 is great, and very fairly priced, i belive that trustys and most other dealers dont have a matt pvd finish on the 292...

See my sig for some pictures.

Hey Gio,

On that handbag site, they have a link to their sister replica watchsite and this looks????: http://www.yourreplicawatch.com/swiss-repl...rals-p-136.html

Since you've done business with them, could you please inquire about this?

Thanks,

Hike

I followed that link too Hike, seemed the prices they are offering are extremely inflated!

Looks pretty good. Just to note that watcheden (an apprentice collector here) has a considerable collection of handbags etc at what seems a cheaper price... I obviously can't vouch for quality though.

Firstly, welcome. Secondly with regard to customs being an issue its down to luck, many people (including myself) have gotten stuff from china/hk etc through customs no problem. Thirdly if you want to reduce likely hood of seizure, order through one of the dealers here as they know what to do to minimize customs risk. Finally you have a massive wealth of information to absorb so good luck!

very good post. ur lume job turned out very well... impressed!

Omega, 99% of people would think a rolex is fake... even if its not

Had the exact thing happen to my Tag Chrono. I have sent it away for servicing now anyway, not sure if its just the case of a cog slipping or what. Must be common...

pretty sweet, looks more of a gimmick though.

Thanks for all the replys and ideas guys, i think i'll def have to get a new crystal one way or another. Put a wanted post in the trading section, as i figure there must be loads of 42mm PO's that have died over the years, prob some people who have them setting about with a nice double ar crystal etc...!

I would just contact the dealer and ask for a whole new replacement watch. That is unacceptable. Be glad it didn't explode and take out one of your eyes, or one of your family member's eyes.

If i had bought it new from a dealer here i would without a doubt have done that, sadly its second hand from the TradingZone.

Damn, what a nightmare, seems to have just fractured, no signs of a bump/knock either!

Contact your dealer, maybe you can get a new crystal shipped out? if it's a UPO, parts should be readily available, just a question of getting the crystal installed....

Cover up any gap in the crystal too, to stop dust/dirt getting at the dial etc.....

Good luck!

Nope, haven't even knocked it recently! Its not a UPO, nor is it new. I bought it second hand on here... so a replacement from the factory isn't in the question sadly!

I had the exact same thing happen to a Seiko Orange Monster. It delaminated just like that. Of course I was standing on it at the time........

Forget trying to source a real domed Seiko replacement. Can't be done. But I bet you can push that crystal out with your thumbs (remove the movement first) and measure it up, and get a nice GS sapphire replacement for not too much $$$.

I could certinaly remove it and measure it up but what is a "GS sapphire replacement"? And maybe more importantly where might i get one?
