  11. What Kind Of Music Do You Prefer?

    in The looney bin

    Posted

    Damn... where to start?...

    Was Pink Floyd, Yes, Zeppelin. Frank Zappa, BB King, Joe Cocker and many others. :blink:

    Moved to Rush, Van Halen, Aerosmith, then to Metallica, RHCP, Creed, Soundgarden, Joe Satriani and Stevie Vai...

    Now still Red Hot CPs, Steve Vai, liking Linkin Park quite a bit.

    Always Jazz, sometimes Fusion, sometimes classical...

    Tried Hip Hop but I guess I'm too old :bleh: Techno got me baffled but some industrial stuff is OK in moderation.

    My lovely better half :wub: informed me there was a package at the PO today... Funny, because I have been tracking this and there was no info on the web, thought it would be here next week :(

    Anyway, she thought she'd be funny and hold out on me whilst she went shopping... real funny haha... I was bursting with anticipation as I knew this must have been my holy grail from Davidsen :whistling:

    Well, it's just about everything I have been expecting, of great quality and beautiful T dial destro PAM 026. Perfectly uniform PVD finish, no recessed pin, excellent AR coated sapphire glass, just lovely all around. :thumbsupsmileyanim::thumbsupsmileyanim:

    Davidsen, my hat is off for you, sir

    Only gripe I have is that it's difficult to get a thick strap on it, I had to remove the tubes from this Europelli baseball strap to get it on...

    The other is that there is a hairline (and I mean very marginal hairline) mismatch between the CG and the case on one side. Barely noticeable with a loupe up to the light, so no biggy.

    Anyway, here's the photos of my most coveted watch to date... I wonder what will move me like this one:

  18. My 600$ Mistake From Watchmaker9 - 18k Blue Sub

    in The Rolex Area

    Posted

    [censored] Off Kenberg! Just because I don't post a lot doesn't mean a thing. I have purchased from Joshua, Letiztozeiss, Overboosted and a few others over the course of almost a YEAR.

    My lust for a decent TT Sub rep, confusion of who George was, being told by another member that it was like Luckyyy's sub, and the dealer telling me it had a solid 18K band is what got me here.

    I have spent MONTHS researching where to get a decent TT Sub rep. I have exchanged emails with Eddie Lee, Joshua, and Precious Time in regards to what they offer.

    There was a huge thread where there was a lot of argument about whether this guy was legit or not. Even so called "senior members" were not in agreement. I think I have done a favor for the community by confirming that it is crap. I am so sorry that YOU have a problem with it.

    LOL... That's pretty funny... I haven't read the thread, but if I saw a lot of conflicts to whether this wm9 dealer is legit or not, I surely wouldn't spend $600 with him :bangin:

    You're obviously not very good at research, or maybe just a masochist :blink:

    It's too bad you got such a crappy watch, but what the hey, you decided to go outside the walls of this place to buy.

    Live and learn... Good luck with the chargeback :yu:

  24. Do Longer Pam Deployment Clasps Exist?

    in Watch Repair & Upgrade

    Posted

    Hello,

    I recently bought a PAM104 from Joshua (looks great BTW!) that came with a black calf strap with a deployment clasp. It works fine, but the clasp is too short... I can't open the clasp and slide the watch over my hand and on to my wrist. And I do not have big hands. They're in between a medium and a large glove size.

    So to put the watch onto my wrist, I need to move the clasp to the furthest hole to make the strap opening the widest, then slide the watch over my wrist, then move the clasp to a nearer hole to make the strap fit snug on my wrist, then close the clasp. To take off my watch, it's the same thing in reverse! It takes a while to do this too, since you're using one hand...

    I figure that if the deployment clasp was longer, then I could keep the clasp set in the hole that I want, then just open and close the deployment whenever I want to put on or take off my watch.

    Does Panerai make such a clasp?

    Any help or recommendations would be appreciated,

    Thanks,

    :notworthy:

    Are you opening both sides of the clasp? My hands are much bigger than my wrist, but it fits over my hand fine... You must have some big hand:wrist ratio going on there :blink:
