  1. So THATs what is wrong with me!! Man the docs at the hospital are gonna be stoked when I tell them I found the problem at long last!!! Sixx
  2. Funny someone else found the chrono of this a while back and were asking if there was a rep of it out there! Try looking through the pages and it should still be there! Real nice sounding piece in chrono version! Sixx
  3. Hey guys. Thought this might interest some of you modders and Franken freaks out there!! http://cgi.ebay.com/Vintage-Omega-Seamaster-300-Diver-Complete-Case-MINT_W0QQitemZ140489707244QQcategoryZ10363QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp4340.m444QQ_trkparmsZalgo%3DCRX%26its%3DC%252BS%26itu%3DSI%252BUA%252BLM%252BLA%26otn%3D10%26ps%3D63%26clkid%3D5783775693346176037 Hope it helps someone! Sixx
  4. That common interest being mental illness?!? Sixx
  5. Ohhhh, been ages since I listened to Borstal Breakout!! Nice choice Pete!! Sixx
  6. No point dwelling on the very SLIGHT inaccuracies mate, just strap it on and enjoy wearing the hell out of it!! Wear in good health bud!! Sixx
  7. Best place to look would be the sales forum on here mate! SOH are out of stock with pretty much every dealer, at least the new V2 is anyways! Sixx
  8. Just telling it like it is bud!! You're a top man!! Sixx
  9. It will be an early version of the BCE mate. There are I think 3 versions of this watch out. If you look for the comparison reviews that people have done, they will help you know the difference between the 3 different versions. Mainly it's due to a missing tick on a sub dial, different date fonts etc. Sixx
  10. The finish on these pieces is fantastic! Made at a time when the factories actually gave a damn about what they made instead of how many could they make!! I have ultra sensitive touch, being blind does that to you, and can tell you for certain that I don't own any other reps as well made as these! I have some reps that are superbly made and finished, some of the new Breits and Tags for example, but these are a cut above! Real craftmanship went into these!! I believe the RO is the same size as the cartel versions, just way better made! Sixx
  11. Oh and watch wise, DJ the guitarist is rockin an AP ROO and the Singer is rocking a PAM!! Sixx
  12. Sixx:AM Life is Beautiful. From the album the Heroin Diaries! Both the Album and the book are well worth picking up!! A lot of my life is in this album!! Sixx
  13. Yeah I heard the drop box say it was an extra $200! But quality is quality! Wonder if Ken might have something similer?? It's a great sounding suit, have to admit I would go the wool route too! Sixx
  14. Andy, I would go for the first option personally. I always prefer the classic 3/4 button jacket, just makes the suit sit nicer I feel. Odd coming from me I know, but I used to wear one everyday for work and have a fair sized collection of suits! I may even have a sniff at the first one myself!! Sixx
  15. If Tony doesn't have them, try putting up a want to buy in the trade section. Maybe someone has one in a box that doesn't get much wrist time? Always worth a shot, if you have done this already, apologies! Sixx
  16. Nothing wrong with a 21j movement mate, it does the job nicely! If you really want, you could ask some of the Omega WIS's if they know if you could drop an ETA movement in there, but usually the cases are different sizes, dials are different etc. No harm in asking though! Don't let the 21j put you off, the POrikka has the same movement and it's prolly one of the biggest selling watches out there!! Good luck either way man!! Sixx
  17. Sorry bud, didn't realise it was a speedy moon watch. Andy is the man to help you, he is wicked with these kind of things! Sixx
  18. Wise words from our top Breit man there bud!! Andreww knows his stuff and has given you the best routes to go down! I would go with Mikes advice, try and get it fixed, if that fails then a full service will see your watch right for about 5 years or so depending on how well it's worn! Mike, I meant to PM you earlier, my BB died on me, I know you have played with a couple, is there something in particular that usually goes on this model? I know the movement mods for the tri-compax and big date make it a bit of a timebomb, but I love it and really want her up on her wheels again! Any advice would be gold dust big guy!! Sorry OP, didn't mean to jack the thread, just while the big lug was in here I thought I'd collar him!! Sixx
  19. Top work MM, you gonna get a killer deal out of that Daimo!! And you can be sure it's been well looked after too!! Sixx
  20. Did you meddle with my 11 screw mr George?!? lol. Thanks for the kind words my friend! It is the older dial, more of a cream finish than the silvery finish on the newer ones! I'm going to take some more pics of that and the Millenary and see if anyone knows more about them. And of course try and track down George and make him fix my screw!!! lol Sixx
  21. Great to hear you back Gio!! You have been missed mate!! New Tag Aquaracer with 'gen' movement is sounding a stunner, as Andy said, the 42 PO seeems to be going nicely! Like you care about watches, hows the lady?!?!? lol Oh, and yeah, the PAMs all still look the same!! Sixx
  22. Thank you very much guy's!! You are all the reason I come back whenever I can!! Sixx
  23. Hi guys, I'm looking for some help here, I recently sold a really nice old school GST Ti Chrono on here. Unfortunately the guy has pretty big wrists and needs one more link to make it fit. Does anyone have one spare that I could buy from them? It's a great piece and the guy loves it, so I would much rather he got to keep it and wear it!! Thanks for any help you can give!! Sixx
  24. So, it would appear that I'm now 2 years old in RWG years!! I didn't even notice until my screenreader went across my avatar earlier today!! I've had an amazing time in this Forum, met some amazing people and a few dumbasses as well of course, but mainly really good people!! Those of you who know me know how much this Forum has done for me over the last couple of years! It's given me the chance to learn to use a computer again, get into watches again, 2 things I never thought I would be able to do again!! I have made friends here that I will cherish for life, people who have went way far out of their way to help me out, been awesome friends when I needed them and have constantly been my 'eyes' on the Forum for me!! Guys like hackR, Bike Mike, HikeUSA, Vlydog, Toadtorrent, Lanikai, PeteM, Blackbard, Jmarin, Andy, Samurai, the list is endless really and I could be here all day name checking people. Please just know that I remember every person who has helped me and been a friend!! I cannot thank you enough! Even some of the head knockers have turned out to be fun! Fakey for example, the guy drives me insane, but when it comes right down to it, even he was there for me when I needed it, from a guy who I have battled with on and off since I came here, I think thats pretty special! Had great laughs making fun of Dave123 for being a big jessie and generally had fun poking fun at some people who took themselves way too seriously. There have been a few very unpleasant moments in my time here, but I would much rather leave them in the past where they belong and carry the lesson learned from them. It is a very rare occurance for unpleasantness on this forum, but as a wiseman once said "where there is life there is people and where there are people there are arseholes!!" Wise man indeed!! So I would like to say a huge thank you to all on here, friends and foes alike, you have made something I thought I would never be able to do again happen! For that there is not enough money or watches in the world! From the bottom of my, admittedly rather soiled heart, a massive thank you to Admin, TT, Big Minty Bear (Nanuq for those not keeping up!) and all mods old and new for giving me the chance to live 'outside' again!! Oh, and where the hell did JohntheBoy and Demsey go?!? They were fun!! Sixx
  25. Blackbard has a Gen Speedy crystal for sale in the parts section. Not sure on the size, but might be worth shooting him a PM!! Sixx
