Back In march of 2002 I moved to North Carolina from south florida. I was looking at houses every day. Then I found the perfect home. The seller would not budge on the price. I thought this was unexceptable and told my realator that I would not purchase the house for the asking price. I could not stop thinking about this house. I decided that I would pay the asking price because It was such a great home. I called my realator and told him I would buy the house. He called me back about a hour later and said "the house Is under contract" I was so angry with myself. Im so much a person of principal, now that "stubborness" has cost me a great home. I was depressed for weeks. About six months later I found another house. It was In a better location, It was on a beautiful wooded acre and the house was bigger and five years newer. The price was almost the same as the first house I wanted to purchase. I have been living In that house for about seven years now. I could not be happier. I remember my father(God rest his soul) telling me that there would be a better house down the road. At the time I didn't believe It, I am a believer today. I ran Into my old realator about two years ago. I mentioned the house that I almost bought and told him I was glad that I did not buy that first house. He told me that the pepole that bought that house have had nothing but trouble. They have had electerical problems, the hard wood floors were warping and they also were haveing problems with the foundation of the home. So sometimes one door closes so another can open, you just never know. So dont be to disapointed, who knows, could be a blessing Incognito Mike

+2 Im sure you know that I know what she knows, know what I mean? Mike

Thanks for the nice pam shot Marty. I just started taking pics, very new to the photo game. It looks to me like you have a great camera, half the battle right there my friend. I also love that Pam Mike

WTF

Im not much good when It comes to repairing leather goods.I hope you can make the fix yourself, If not. The only suggestion I can make Is to take It to a shoe repair store. I know that other members have done this to great success. These shoe repair folks work with thick leather all day long, good luck. Mike

I know It's a personal thing but I love the PO on the bracelet. Something about that SS bracelet that I cant resist, nice pics, thanks

TeeJay we brought you up better than this, kids, you give them your heart and soul, teach them right from wrong and how do they thank you? they turn around a kick you In the ar$e.

Welcome to RWG MG. It's great to have you here, have fun Mike

I dont understand why the undergarment manifactures dont use this technology, the "GEV" sounds like a great Idea. Maybe I should give "Fruit of the loom" a holla

Excuse me sir, Is this 2009?, thanks

Dont get me started, you know how I get

Nice job Mike, well done Indeed, thanks Mike

If anyone were to say anything about that green bezel,.. well.... just say that It's one of only ten made, very rare Indeed. Mike

Well said Stephane, thanks Mike

Track suites and those wooly jumpers, oh hell yes

This Is beyond pathetic, unexceptable on any level.

If I were In your shoes(my feet would be killing me, I wear a size 14) I would feel the same way. Sometimes we do things we would normally not do. Got to keep the little laddie happy That way she will hopefully keep you happy Mike

It looks like the newer po's do have the double AR coating. I prefer one sided AR on the inside of the crystal. It seems the out side coating scratches very easy.

My first rep was the PO crono (orange bezel) 42mm. I screwed the bracelet up by trying to remove the links from the lugs instead of the clasp, I know I know what can I say. I was new and knew nothing about sizing bracelets. Well the bracelet was ruined so I put the watch on a black leather strap that I found on the Bay for $30.00, not a bad strap at all for $$. The spring bars from the po work just fine for the swap. Taking the bracelet off the po was a huge "pita" and I dont mean that greek pocket bread . Im not kidding about removing the bracelet, It Is a bear. No problem using the spring bars for the change over Mike

Well you know what they say about great minds

Welcome to RWG, fire up one of those fat stogies and settle In. Mike

I prefer leather, I think It gives the watch a classier look Imho. I have Breitling SA on a brown croc strap, drop dead gorgeous. I dont think the size will be a Issue,at least thats what I told my girlfriend. Imo rubber takes the watch down a notch. Im not a big fan of rubber so thats JMO, good luck with your decision. Mike
