  1. The Raymond Weil Nabucco is well worth a look also! Excellent build quality, almost perfect to the gen, slightly sunken date wheel, but it's a multi layer carbon dial, so the gen isn't flush either! I both gen and rep and they are fantastic! Also, not many of them around, so pretty exclusive too! Most new daylight Pams are excellent these days, with the A7753 in them. A lot of the new Breitlings are amazing too, especially the new skylands, super avengers and the new Soper Ovean Abyss chronos are damn near perfect! I tried the gen on while I was choosing a watch from insurance money, and it's staggering how close they are!! Hope you find what you like buddy, the big 40 is a special one!! Sixx.
  2. Not at all Hambone, I said it in a light hearted manner! Not everyone knows, I don't have an issue with it!! Thank you, I always like to hear my tastes excite or turn stomachs, no half measures!! Sixx.
  3. You have some of the best posts on the Internet let alone this Forum Minty Bear!! They sound incredible shots! Sixx.
  4. Same as the last couple of years. TT closer to the edge!! I don't need eyes for this one, I think I know every blade of grass on the 'mountain circuit!!' Even if you don't like bikes, or not a great fan of them, I think you would still love this movie, it's in 3D too. Follows a few of the riders, but mainly Guy Martin, a complete loony choone from Lincolnshire in England and a buddy of mine! There is even watch content in this as Graham do the timing for the TT and every winner gets a special edition TT watch! S
  5. What did you mod on it Sg, if you don't mind me asking?! Sixx.
  6. Yeah me too M!! Great to hear you back buddy!! Oh and check out my new watch, I know you'll love it!! Sixx.
  7. I miss Dmzy, guy was wicked funny!! And John the Boy, both top members and great guys!! I miss Fakey, haven't had a good scrap in ages!! Sixx.
  8. I'm not so good at the staring bit bud, and eyes are always glazed over! I'm 100% blind! Thank you for the kind words!! Really pleased you like the 029 bud, it's a really nice piece! What did you end up making for it?! Paul Picott is a stunner, had it for nearly 3 years and still one of the best watches I've ever worn, gen or rep!! Thanks for the compliments guys, will work on the rest once I'm mobile again! Sixx.
  9. Just had to be the Daily mail!! Oh how I despise that POS rag!! "One of the tells is the logo on the crystal, made of tiny dots, you need a loupe." I think he needs the loupe, cause all my rollies have "tiny dots" on too!! Sixx.
  10. I was just about to say exactly that!! They're wicked fast, but you're almost guaranteed to get a nice wee note saying "please allow us to bend you over your table and shaft you for £?!; thank you please!!" Sixx.
  11. Right, in the spirit of this Forum I'm gonna try help a bit more, for a few reasons! 1) This site, quite literally, gave me my life back. To those of you who don't know me, firstly well done, secondly, I'm 100% blind! Yes, really! The people on here have went way out of their way and further for me. Real detailed descriptions of watches, straps, all the little nadgery bits that we're all so anal about! All for free and for nothing other than to help another human being! I've made some fantastic friends on here and some outstanding enemies/fighting partners (I miss Fakey!!) Staff have been excellent, as you all prolly know already! I've had the odd knuckle rap, but I've deserved it, I can be a dick at times! No, really, it's true!! 2) Well two is easy, the people! I've been on forums for years, mainly motorbike, tattoo/body mod sites and MMA forums. This place is the only one I spend a fair bit of time on for the above reason, the peeps!! I've only ever found the same kind of closeness of community on the bikes and 1 body mod site, everywhere else does its damnedest to out shine or troll on the place and I hate that, there's just no need for rudeness as a first port of call! Polite, friendly, super helpful, these are just a few of the adjectives I would use for the fine people on here! 3). The depth of knowledge that is freely given to all, be you a non paying member up to the newly founded Diamond members! I'm not sure if even people realise what goes into these 'help' threads or, even more so, the reviews of watches and guides to help you, take to finalise. These things take upwards of 8 hours or so out someone's personal free time! No one gets paid on here, no one, not even the chief, although I think we'd all agree he bloody well should be getting a Lil' sumat sumat!! I know, for example, the Noobs guide, yes the same one that the kid yesterday got so pissed about me suggesting he took a quick look at, that took Toady almost 3 days to finalise!! 3 freakin days! And it's not like he doesn't have a life, dudes married with 2 kids!! Lani and Ubi's reviews are stunning, if only I could see their pics it would be worth the diamond member just for those! There is more info on these pages than any of us will ever be able to understand, even then, some cool ass people still go further out of their way to do a step by step dafty 'how too' and speaking for the dafties, of which I'm undoubtedly one, they can be a serious wallet saver! We will always have guys who just want to come in, find 'the best Sub.. Insert latest and greatest here' and the feck off out again. I personally think that happens more on the other Forums than here, mainly because they're more sales orientated. Now I'm not knocking any of them, there's room for all of us and, if you look on the main page, you'll see 'play pens' for RG and rwi on there ( must remember not to let it out that I came up with' play pen'....bugger!!!) We all do what we do and generally, all get along fine, so please don't see that comment as a snidely remark!! Back on topic again. But we have a lot of guys who stick around and make the place better/funnier/weirder! All the above is what, I personally feel, makes this place.......Home. So, on that note, top bidder wins and all goes to the Chief for the Forum up keep!! Not the latest and greatest, old school case and dial etc. gotta worth a couple of hundred bones to someone!? Sixx.
  12. Diamonds are forever!! Stuck with me for another year guys, sorry!!
  13. Test driving this baby to make sure she still does the business! JLC Sixx.
  14. Old school glam baby!! New York Dolls, Hanoi Rocks, Us (Crue) Gn'R, Cheap Trick et al! Been lucky enough to meet a lot of the guys in the bands above and a lot of the bands named on here! There's no better music in the world!! Sixx
  15. I love my Tags, got 3 gens and about 7 reps of theirs. I think some of the movements they make are incredible! The belt driven movement was a work of art, never mind innovation! Not to forget the Calibre 36, again a stunning feat in my opinion! I've always loved Tags and my love for them hasn't diminished in the slightest, even though I can't stand tourbullions on a watch. The new mikrotimer sounds so nice!! Sixx.
  16. Special day Big Minty Bear?! Sounds nice, that one obviously not had the snow blower treatment! That Dali sounds nice bud, good catch!! Sixx.
  17. Thanks so much bud!! Obviously I didn't search well enough! They sound killer looks wise and the new movements seem to be edge too! Thanks again sir! Sixx.
  18. BH a man cursed with vision! Had the very great pleasure of meeting him in the Edinburgh Festival, was gutted to learn he died 3 weeks later! Now I'm just waiting for him to pop up on my TV say " My names Bill Hicks and I'm dead now......." Sixx.
  19. Breitling SO Abyss chrono and a sleepy wee cat!!
  20. The proll bracelet does have micro adjustment, that's what the wee holes in the clasp are for! Sixx.
  21. I've found most ladies Tags are incredibly well rep'd and very close to gen OTB. A lot of other tags too, like the white dialled calibre 17, the calibre 36 ( other than the sunken date wheel) and the day/date old school aqua racer is amazingly well made! But these are more up to date reps on this list, maybe these were included in previous versions? Either way, still fantastic job done!! Sixx.
