Happy Birthday big fella, hope your boozey weekend is a good one!! Sixx

I have a few quartz watches and they are perfect. For the price of a good auto rep, you could pick up a real nice Casio Waveceptor, I have the one from the Bourne movie and it's awesome!! It's almost like a small computer, it can work out lap times, has multi timezone functions, the chrono is amazing, down to 100th of a sec and it looks good too!! Costs around

As Andy says, should be no problem at all if the movement has been serviced. Unserviced you could find that it can shorten the 'lifespan' of the movement, starts to grind as it wears through the greased parts. Get it serviced and go for your life mate, they do look real good when they are in action thats for sure!! Sixx

If you look at the third pic in the sequence Icarus, you can see the light coloured 9 subdial hand shining white/silver. Sounds a bit shady to me and the fact that it went for a good $350 less than normal kinda tells its own story! Sixx

Here is a quick link to Reg's Ladies watches, 'bang for buck' I'd say some of the best out there!! http://img.villagephotos.com/p/2007-9/1278421/1911958 Sixx

I got the Aquaracer MOP dial with CZ numeral markers and full bezel, from Reg (narikaa) real good price and it looks stunning! Bought me many brownie points with my mam!! lol Might be worth having a look at Narikaa's for sale pics, he has quite a few nice TAG ladies, both link and Aqua, most for around $100 or soo too! Sixx

Great to have you back R!! We were all on the edges of our seats there for a while, but we all knew, deep down, that as long as new watches are coming out, you ain't going 'out'!! lol Man I've been in hospital WAY to many times and your experience is bringing back memories!! I wasn't so much conserned by the bedpan, it was more the 3, under 30yo Occupational Therapists who were in the shower with me with clip boards!!! I had to show that I could keep at least basic hygiene before I was let go!?! It was like the olympics in the gymnastic comps, I was getting scored on how I did!! 2nd one gave me a 10 for artistic imppression!! Take it easy big fella, so good to have you back!! Sixx

Happy birthday my friend!! I hope there are many more to come!! Sixx

Don't think you can get overly heated at PF in this, we all make mistakes and given the circumstances he was under, it's kinda understandable!! Of course I wasn't the guy out of pocket and out a watch thought to be on its way to him, but I have to say I'm really pleased that for once there has been no high drama and childish name calling through out!! PF and Kurt obviously came to an agreement between themselves, not on the board as so many members in the past have done!! PF manned up and took all responsibility, shows good character in my book and Kurt was gentlemanly enough to deal with it in a calm and grown manner. Well done to both I say!! Not for the mess up obviously, but for both being gentlemanly through out!! Thats what this forum is about, close knit, friendly community who, if things go aray, as they can do in this hobby, deal with eachother in a grownup manner and deal with each other off the board while explaining the wrong doing on the board!! Again, both of you, well done! Just my

Huge amount of work!! Good luck man and thank you for giving us a nice clean playground to play in everyday!! (when we really should be working most of us!! ) Does this mean we get an RWG playpen in with the Geeks then!?!? lol Sixx

I'll be wearing my 112h, unfortunately not gen like TT's, but a very nice piece, mounted on a black leather Europelli Cordovan strap with silver stitching and SC buckle, shes a beaute!! Just havin trouble finding the pics of it!! And if I was able to see I would be taking her for a spin also, but think she may be going a touch faster than TT and Freddy's will be!! 184bhp of stealth missile!! Ohh how I love my baby!! Enjoy your ride guys and stay safe and rubber side down!!! Sixx

The phone will work pretty much anywhere, but it really depends on the carrier. Anywhere outside of Ireland will be International. If she wants the roll over minutes and texts, then she needs to buy into a contract like you guys would over there. Try going to Orange.co.uk or O2.co.uk .They are 2 of the biggest carriers in the UK and wil have Irish counterparts, she can get a rough idea that way of what it's likely to cost her. If she gets a contract, the phone and everything is usually free, depending on the contract of course! But around

Have to agree on the Apnoea, it sounds a stunning piece and of course, the Monaco speaks for it's self!! Have you had any luck in stalking it Doc B?? Sixx

Haven't been able to take this beast off my wrist since I got it!! Maybe the new Blacksteel coming my way will change my mind?!? Sixx

Did the fact the link said "rivkinfamily.com" not give it away O/S ??? Wow, that is some collection indeed!! Sixx

That made no sense what so ever!!?? What is "have two holes on the bends" supposed to mean?!?! Are you trying to tell us all that you could tell this is a franken from 5 meters?!? I call bullsh1t!!! There is no way any of us could call this!! Your comment makes no sense at all, if you are going to criticise anothers work, at least do constructively and not just write a pile of drivel that no one understands!! Now go back in your corner, theres a good chap!! Great work marcus, a labour of love and then some!! Sixx

This Sucks Blik, I was actually going to pull the trigger on your SA, as everyone I asked to check it over for me said it was a stunner andd easy one of the best they had seen!! I went to the thread and heard it was sold, was gutted but also pleased you had finally gotten it sold. I know of you from over at RG, I don't do much over there, the forum setup is really difficult for me to navigate, but I go over sometimes for practice and to hear whats going on and know a good guy when I hear one, you are a good guy mate!! I'm up in Scotland, tell the guy he can send it up to me if he likes, if it needs something doing maybe me and my pop can fix it or send it to Rex like you asked him too several times, if it works he gets his pennies back from me?!? How does that sound, he will have my address and I can offer him my number as well if he is worried about being scammed! I'm pretty well known on here ( sometimes for beating on your friend Dave123!1 heh heh) so if he needs refs I'm sure a couple of people will answer for me! I hate stuff like this happening, there is just no need for it in a hobby like ours!1 It's a gentlemans hobby, not a ripoff forum!! Sixx

I know artists pretty much all over the world, I'm extensively tattooed and was a pro piercer for years so I've been around the business a long time!! As stated by many above, you really need to be sure you want a tattoo and that you want that particular tattoo for the rest of your life!! Typeset ink is very popular, so finding examples of it will be no problem at all, finding very bad examples of it will, unfortunately, be way easier!! There are a lot of bad artists out there that claim they can do this, that and the other no problem and make a total mess. Ask to see portfolios, most good artists will have their own work either on the wall or in albums in the waiting room, or will be able to produce them if they don't have them on display. If someone is getting tattooed while you are there, ask if you can watch for a short time, there is nothing like seeing an artist at work to know how good they are. A really good artist can bring to life a flat outline with a few deft shading strokes! If he can do that, he can surely do typo work!! If you want, drop me a PM and I can put you onto a couple of websites that will have examples of typo and ambigram work and who they are done by Also, as stated, I can probably put you onto a real good artist within a reasonable distance from you! Sixx

Lol, thats funny!!! Sixx

Oh, makin fun of the blind now By-Tor huh?!? Last time I help you then!! lol Try using the 'file extensions' option BT Sixx

Sorry BT, I think my guide dog spied something shiney and wandered off with me!! Ammandel's advice is sound, sorry I didn't realise you didn't have the whole menu there. You should be able to tweak the settings once you are in expert mode, just try not to get too exotic!! lol You said this was a free ware piece of kit? Is it a trial of some kind or is it a piece of software someone has cracked for you? HA mentioned AVG which is really good (NOT AGV which is motorcycle helmets and not the kind of protection you need right now!! Unless of course, like I used too, you get a bit excited while playing games and find yourself on the floor more often than not!!! Then it's the very chap you're after!! lol ) They do a free month trial, you get everything from identity control, ie, there is noway anyone can lift your accounts details etc from your machine, really good firewall and excellent AV and antispyware. Kaspersky is very good too, I haven't used it personally, but had customers who swore by it. I use Zonealarm on mine, really solid bitof kit, got a cracked copy if you're on the sniff!! Sixx

Sometimes I think the answer to this is "How long is a piece of string?!" It is a hit and miss hobby sometimes and can be very infuriating with it!! But I guess that is part of the lure of the hobby, "If it breaks can I fix it, if I can't fix it can I break the dealer?!?" lol. Sixx

You know I have huge love and respect for you R!! You have helped me through some really sh1tty times as we have gotten to know each other!! Needless to say my prayers and well wishes are with you man!! Sixx

I had the same problem, but right from the start. I contacted Reg, he talked me through a few normal fixes but no joy, 4 days later I had a brand new clasp through my door. He was a total gent, I offered to send the other one back to him but he told me to keep it for spares. The guy is a legend!! Make sure it isn't the divers extension blocking the snap, sometimes you have to play around with them for a bit to get them to sit just right. Thats the usual problem with them I'm told. Hope you get it fixed mate, it's fantastic watch for the money!! Sixx

Yeah it will be BT, if you go into the setup of the AV, it should give you different levels of protection. One of these will be the level you want with learning mode. It's a really good wee tool, there is nothing worse than a ton of bogus alerts all the time, but you don't want to turn the warnings off incase it's something bad!! But doing this means you will only be bugged a few times and it will just run in the background from then on. Sixx
