  1. Sold a long time ago I'm afraid mate. I probably should have held on to that one. I bought it from John at UK Watches, he had 2, kept one for himself I believe.
  2. Thank you sir. Funny, the reason I was in the AD was the missus wanted to look at love bracelets. I ended up buying her one from Ken B for about 1% of the cost of a gen.
  3. I remember Sead had some a while back, maybe contact him.
  4. With 2 kids I had to give up the cars and motorbikes, but I've still got watches!
  5. There are a few EU based guys on the various forums, Domenico and Le Wiz come to mind but I'm sure there are others. I've got a local guy, but he's usually too busy to be bothered with my reps.
  6. Another blast from the past, PAM 158
  7. I've collected watches since I was a teenager. but when I initially found the forums I went crazy. First on PMWF with cheap gens, then on the rep forums. I'd buy just about anything, I bet I bought 30 - 40 watches my first year on the rep forums. I tried to like PAMs, I bought tons of them, they never really worked for me. I even bought 3 different 048s and a really rare 42mm 158 Radiomir thinking that I'd like the smaller size, but to no avail. I do still have 2 PAMs, a 112 and a 287, mainly because they're not worth much and I'd rather keep them than sell them for nothing. Eventually 2 things happened: 1) I figured out what I liked and stopped buying stuff that other people liked, and 2) Became willing to spend the money to get top quality pieces. I still haven't found the perfect daily beater though...
  8. I have the same problem on my 5 year old IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad R61. I couldn't be bothered to spend the time/money to fix it so connected it to a keyboard, mouse, monitor and now its a great desktop Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using Tapatalk 2
  9. A few more pieces from the past: Ingy DD II Aqua Terra Tiffany Sub Seamaster Chrono
  10. Ok Aeromatic, I'll dig around in the box for some more. I've got a few incoming as well
  11. Thank you sir! I'm in Prague, Czech Republic. Thanks! I love the BP FF, this one was vintage-ized by Neckyzips. I can't seem to find a strap that I'm really happy with for it though. I'm starting to think maybe a vintage SS bracelet?

  13. Wow, thanks for all the great responses guys. I think RWG might be my new favorite forum Thanks Ken, If I get some time this week I'll have to do a review of the great stuff I just received from you! I've had the watch a couple of years and no movement problems so far, but I rarely wear it and always keep it hacked when not on my wrist. Favorite, thats a tough one mate. Right now the 116300 gets the most wrist time, but over the summer the Aquanaut almost never left my wrist. The Nautilus is fantastic, although the Grey dial should be on a leather strap as per gen,and I wish it had a closed case back. I'm very pleased with the SW200 movement. The TimeWalker is a great rep, vitually indistinguishable from the gen. Just add AR and a good strap and you're set. You will never get called out on this one because 1) it's so close to gen and 2) the gen only costs about $2k. Mine came from Josh nearly 4 years ago and has a Swiss ETA 2824.
  14. Gorgeous, how much did the gen strap set you back?
