  1. Thanks, the search function looks pretty good again!
  2. The beauty of these watches is they will take a Genuine Pearl or Insert.
  3. So we have: 1 Gold H/M and White Sec 1 Gold H/M and Silver Sec Cool. As for the availability of new hands, the offerings appear very YELLOW GOLD to me. Any suggestions on that? The "Rail" on the dial is more of a bronze color, so the bright yellow hands seem to clash a bit.
  4. Per Zigmeister, from the "winding" position. Remember not too push too hard or you will kill the keyless works...
  5. Ok, I am a bit confused. Should all 6536/8's have Gold hands and a White second hand? Is it really white or just silver. I am working on a little project, and am about to purchase some hands. However, the gold hands available look very YELLOW to me. Any help or good macro photo shots appreciated. (My problem after looking at many on the net is the "aged" look). I would love to see a near perfect specimen. Thanks in advance,

  7. Just an FYI, I have the AceTimer version of the Steinhausen. Anything larger than a Submariner will hit the glass/top of box when closed. Not a biggie unless you want to display your PAM's, Breitlings, etc under the glass.
  8. Good points TJ, It seems we tip more often for non-mechanical/tangible services -or- Body Services: Waitresses, Taxi, Door Man, Massage, Tattoo, Hooker, etc. We rarely tip for mechanical services: Auto Repair, Computer Service, Plumber, etc.... Watch Repair?????
  9. Interesting question. I am prone to think that you are paying a professional for professional work, at prices set by the pro. I am going to say no. When was the last time you tipped your Doctor? However, it is the Holiday season, so little seasonal cheer / gift might not be a bad idea. Tipping is such an "American" concept. Especially at the rate at which we tip. It is kind of unfortunate it has become actual salary/income for many -vs- truly, an in kind gesture for above and beyond service.
  10. Just curious, did you need to change the tube as well? Or was the crown a quick R&R?

  12. Awesome. "Candy Ravers" beware.
