My screen reader just went insane and melted I think!! lol Sixx

That sounds like our drinks cupboard!! There are some good things to living in Scotland!! Sixx

Try mailing Mary and Watch Station, her details are in the dealers section. If anyone can find you one, I would say she is your best bet!! And you're right, that site is scumsville!! Sixx

Agreed, none of the reps are particularly good of this moedel. Use the search function, you will see what people have had to say about this piece! It's on pretty much most peoples want list, but the factories just don't make good ones for some weird reason! Sixx

All the dealers carry the same pieces really, so pretty much any of the trusted dealers will have the latest models for sale. Use the search box function on here and read reviews on what others have thought about the model. I have the PVD Ltd Ed version and a black dialled SS version. Both are incredible quality!! Sixx

Narikaa's POrikaa is by far the best value you will find!! Great build quality, even if it is a 21j movement, it still does the same job as the others!! And for a fraction of the price! He Doesn't have a site, follow the link that Furu has posted for you and go into one of Reg's posts, in his sig he has a link to a photobucket album, that's where you will find all the watches he has for sale at that time. You can sign up for his news letter, which will update you every time he has new stock in. He tends to have the PO's, both 42 and 45.5mm versions, in stock most of the time, they are a great seller for him! Just choose the dial and bezel colour you prefer and email him and ask if he has it in stock. He is in the UK, so shipping shouldn't be an issue. His aftersales service puts most of the 'bigger' dealers completely to shame, his comms is great and his shipping very fast! Can't go wrong with Reg!! Sixx

I have 4 UPO's and a gen 45.5. All the reps are amazingly well made, as mentioned, the only real problem is the crown and tube, they are hopeless, if you're buying one budget for a gen set. Or you can watch the for sale forums, they come up quite often, there have been quite a few nicely modded ones came up lately, gen dials and hands. Gen bezel insert is another good part to find, the inserts aren't the greatest by any means, I was lucky with a couple of mine, and they are very close to gen, but they just can't seem to get the pearl right at all! As for the crystal, just get after market AR on it by Chief, or FineDD. Makes a world of difference to the watch! 2 of mine have AR, one from Chief which is excellent I'm told and one from a guy who used to do AR before he done off with a lot of money and watches! This also is very good I'm told! The Lume on mine are pretty good, one way more so than the others, think I was just lucky on it, I got someone to check them out for me and it stood out way more than the other 3, almost as good as the gen. As for the dial, you can just get an Omega symbol on it's own and ask a modder to swap it out for the rep one, the dial is 50% better already! Do some searches through the site using the search box, you will find lots of how to's and people showing how they have done their mods and which ones are the best! Search button is your best friend!! Sixx

I bought mine from a fellow member, one of the best reps I have, I also had an old SMP bracelet that fits it amazingly well, the SEL's are so well made, as is the entire bracelet for that matter!! Keep an eye on the for sale forum, always good pieces coming up on there and they have the added bonus of being checked over by people as anal as ourselves. Also many are already modded for you!! Sixx

Mine doesn't appear to have any of the issues stated. I think the bezel on my pic has moved rather than being the insert and I'm told my 'B' is the proper spacing from the text. I ended up with 2 of these, stupid mistake on my part! Both of them are exactly the same, neither has any of the issues. Wonder if I was just real lucky?! Sixx

At least the hooker knew a good watch when she seen one!! He gets most of his pieces free, he has a contract that means he has to wear a watch at all times on the show. You never see him without it on, even in bed with the ladies, also rarely, if ever, wears long sleeves so it can't be seen!! More power to him I say, drugs, drink, hookers and free watches?! Where do I sign up?!?!?! Sixx

I would go for the quartz version P, most of them have the subdial seconds, depending what brand/model you get of course! Some also have the ability to stop the seconds running completely so no one would know if it was auto or quartz! Sixx

Go with Andys how to, it works amazingly well!! It's one of the best how to's on the boards IMHO!! Sixx

Holy crap M, I didn't know you had one DLC'd!?! NICE!!! That will be one badass UPO man, nice work indeed!! Sixx

The guys on here give me reason to log on and live my life!! You know who you are! Congrats T, hope the wedding goes off perfectly for you all! G&F, great gesture guys, always good to hear people not just take advantage but to give something back, your watch sounds stunning! Sixx

I've just checked it out and it does have lugholes in it, didn't remember that bit! Sixx

I have an old nodate sub with lugholes, that any good to you, I can ship it over to you if you can use it?! Sixx

Hey O, Thanks bud, I didn't think it would be anything that good anyways, just curious as to what it is, could be going up as part of a trade with another member, so would like some kind of 'expert' help to cover both of us as I have no idea of the value! Sixx

Hey guys, I'm looking for a bit of help here. I have a Sub in my box and have no idea what version it is other than it has an ETA movement. Any chance one of you guys could have a quick look and see if you can identify it further?! Thanks for any help you can give! Sixx

A couple of my babies! Sixx

Wow, so glad you got out safe with your family man!! That is awful, I'm with F on this one, fire is the worst to go through, nothing is spared!! I know all about loss and I feel your pain bud, you need, I'm here, I'll leave it there, all that can be said has been!! Solid RWG'r though, caught his watchbox on the way out, top form that man!! Sixx

Hey bud, Try on here, http://www.sportsdirect.com/ they usually have pretty good deals! Hope you both enjoyed the world cup so far! Sixx

Thanks O, Not at all, that UPO is solid rock cool as is!! Only thing it needs is wearing!! I have another UPO that I'm thinking of selling, noe I have yours I don't have any need of it, but would like to be safe selling it so wanted to install the crown and tube to be on the safe side. Thanks for your help mate!! Sixx

Sir Alex has several of them, Hublot is a big advertiser at Old Trafford, so I'm guessing he gets them for free! Maradonna is as a Maradonna does!! lol, the guy is a legend for many reasons! He has always worn 2 watches from what I remember, usually given to him by PR agents for big companies. He wears 2 at the World Cup for the same reason that a lot of managers and refs do, one for normal time and one that you stop and start for added on time at the end of a half. Hodgsons was a gift from Sir Alex for a birthday. Sixx

Hey guys, Does anyone know the part numbers for the gen grown and tube from CousinsUK? Also, do I need to get a stem with it or does the one the rep comes with do the job just as well?! Thanks for any input! Sixx

Simple yet very effective!! I have just been scammed in this fashion along with another of our members! Hopefully this will stop anyone else getting into the same situ!! Sixx
