  1. I use the Aloe Verra from the Body Shop... No odour and works great... doesn't ruin my shirts L'Occitane is good stuff, but a bit too expensive for what it is for me.
  2. I couldn't hold back any longer... mine's on its way @ JohnDorian... I changed my avatar
  3. Thanks for the rightup mate That's all great to hear!!! (except the 60 vs 30)... This will be my next, very soon :-D How's the lume?
  4. Thanx for the flick I liked how you scraped it face down on the marble table ... maybe you're looking at accelerating the aging process?
  5. Distressed sex @12... HKTan hornback... Gen canvas strap... nice wallet
  6. ok.... do they compare the ultimate with the $100 cheaper version? What's the difference? For me, the crown sticks out like dogs balls :|
  7. Thanks mate... love it too... whenever it's on, I still can't stop staring at it LOL Here's the same strap maybe 18 months later:
  8. Custom PVD 196 7753 with Dirk vachetta naturale:
  9. Yes... this should be pinned at the top of the AP section of the forum... I lost mine too lol Josh sent me a new set straight away.
  10. The watch Rolexman posted looks like a completely different animal from the pics off J&A's sites... Just look at the crown... That's a let down for me
  11. So, there's this yellow toad wandering around in the forest kinda pissedoff because he doesn't want to be yellow. Life would be easier if he were brown like the other toads. He'd sure be less visible to predators for one thing. Anyway... this yellow toad bumps into a fairy godmother. He begs her: "Fairy godmother, please make me brown like the other toads. I am tired of being so visible to predators and such." The fairy godmother whips out her magic wand and says "Abracapokus! You're brown!" The toad looks down and sees that he is brown except for his package, which is still yellow. He says to the fairy godmother: "Wait a minute! My pecker's still yellow!" To this the fairy godmother replies: "I'm very sorry. I don't do 'johnsons'. You will have to go see The Wizard of Oz for that." The toad thanks her and hops off on his way. There is also a purple bear wandering about the very same woods. As luck would have it, he encounters the very same fairy godmother. He implores her: "Fairy godmother, please make me brown like the other bears. None of the lady bears want to be seen with me because hunters can spot me from a mile off." She, being a nice fairy godmother, takes out her magic wand and says: "Pokuscadabra! You're brown!" The bear looks down and sees that he is, in fact brown with the exception of the ole "twig and berries;" they remain purple. He says: "My wang is still purple!" She says: "Sorry, I don't do units. You will have to go see The Wizard of Oz for that." To this the bear replies, "Well that's just dandy, but how the hell do I find The Wizard of Oz?" The fairy godmother answers: wait for it... wait for it... wait for it... "That's easy... just follow the yellowdick toad!"
  12. I really hope they do the U1000... that will definitely be my next if they do
  13. $1000!!! How could you ever... ever think you would get a genuine AP (any model) for $1000, let alone a rose gold ROO chrono??? You should have let us know more about the deal befpore you decided to throw away your money... I'm sure if anyone read that you're paying a grande for that watch, thinking it's gen, you'd get screwed. Sorry to sasy, but as far as I can see... serves you right for not thinking that too good to be true is a pretty damn good concept
  14. go back north to BKK...MBK shopping center... search from there
  15. The PAM 196 never had recessed subdials (in the gen)... but it looks like you've stumbled across a rep that does... The PAM 188 has sunken date wheels... but some reps did not.
  16. Yes, I wish the hands were more orange and the lume was done in two layers like the gen... but, I paid 1% of the price, so I can live with this for now... I will get an updated dial and hands set when out, and have The Zigmeister do his magic if possible One thing I do notice is that the seconds hand is a bit 'jerky'... but it's kept good time overnight so far. It seems waterproof... had a soapy last night and left it on so I could feel like Tony Montana

  20. Just ordered mine... my grail! Too bad about the logo, but I think it's worth it even with the issue... which brings me to the question what is actually wrong? From what I see, it is a little too far to the right, or centered between the date and the center... should it be offset closer to the center? Is that the only visible issue?
  21. Life is short, time is luck

  22. I so wish they would finish the AP ROO EOD with seconds at 12!!!
