The case that Ubi gifted me is so good .. no dimples.. it need to be technically correct, so I'll have the lugs drilled to accept the PreV screws.. and I have the LH CG to add.. so I'm having the pvd done over so the CG and the lug screws will match.. PVD can be temperamental with different coatings, and understanding this.. I decided to redo the project.. the CG that is in the pic is good for the H series but I need the Historic CG and the PreV lug screws, that being with the little screws to secure the bar at both ends of the lugs..

Real Estate

Hopefully it'll just have a blue hue or tint to it.. my dealer was in GZ and tried to arrange it with the factory for me.. we'll see.. I may have to wait until April for hte 212 to be restocked.. but the last message was that the AR'd glass would be shipped out from the factory.. I'm leaving an open mindset to the outcome..

"Bubble Economy"

There are babes all over the Olympics.. agree I figure most of these sports are for the affluent class.. a lotta bucks from when these athletes are very young.. just a thought looking at some of the finances needed to mature in the winter programs.. Like tropical climates attract beach bunnies.. the ski slopes must be the opposite end of the spectrum with the ski bunnies..

Suggest U post this in the repair section.. if Zig can view the thread ... or Ubi... Tribal.... they can answer with a much more fluid explanation than I..

Welcome to RWG.. this is a rep watch forum.. the "earning" you are mentioning is for web sites that make money off of advertising I believe.. if your into watches that be us.. if your into marketing ads.. that be not us but others have taken circuitous routes in the past .. AC/Lani

Congrats R.. nice to see the project completed the pics of my 253 you requested ahwile ago.. I posted them.. you may of missed them .. with the 2 straps we discussed.. my AR'd crystal is supposed to be on it's way to Hawaii, and in April the 212 will be available again.. the 253 and 212 are definitely 2 of my fave Pams.. Live Strong and Wear it Well R AC/Lani

(hope I got that one right).. they took the long jump too ??.. the dude was flyin

Great finish to the cross country event.. great team work and unselfish play by the Swiss

I need to look in my parts box this week and see if I have a short link I can send you.. dunno if I do or not.. so no promises.. but I'll check..

It is a too bad Neil left with threats and members not getting a refund, nor the watches that were pre-ordered.. that is water under the proverbial bridge.. some that were absent when all this transpired remember TTK prior to the "happenings", and weather they be good memories or not... the point is if Neil does return .. what of the members that are still owed money.. and if he is no longer of this earth then it is mute to carry on wondering.. and speculating..we need proof one way or the other.. Welcome him back ??? that is a hot debate.. let the past rest .. there's no need for us to resurrect it..imo Until we all get confirmation from a reliable source.. like an obituary .. We should really move on.. just ma .02

Yes to the q.. your 5004 crystal should look exactly like my 5002.. maybe you got it from a non-factory dealer.. in which case they could of used a surplus of old parts.. fyi.

Bumping.. common all those who are lurking.. this is a way to give back to the forum

If you are very fortunate to get one that keeps working.. the stars have to be in line.. juuuuuussst right.. Here's one of 2 that have survived the sec @6 modded movement.. the other is like the one JMB has pictured.. both movements still function.. but who knows how they will be tomorrow....

Watching the Men's figure skating competition, I am amazed at the skills.. But... Sang are the costumes they wear trying to compete with the women.. I'm not Homophobic , nor do I have much against "Metro".. but dhit Jed.. those costumes and make up on the men are going over the edge of "peacocking", I have a hard enough time looking a straight man in the face when he has waxed eyebrows Now History will show that in all cultures in Mans attempt to mimic the wild kingdom, have used makeup and the likes.. but this year in the Ice skating programs.. it seems that they went over the line with trying to outdo the Women..in elegant costumes and makeup. you go from one extreme from Hockey where the men are missing teeth and have crooked noses.. to figure skating, where the Men may "scream" if they break a finger nail.. Sorry just had to add ma .02.. I really focus on the skills they work hard at.. but "Mary" Puuuullleeeeaase

Hotel

Sounds like your click spring may be off..my GMTIIC is snug.. it's not as easy aligning the bezel after you remove it as most think.

Very Nice acquisition Marty got a Lume shot for us sometime this weekend ?? Live Strong and Wear it Well AC/L

Ok Emmy.. I like Garrett .. sounds more masculine..(sorry, still can't let go of the fact that the mens's figure skating is trying to compete with the woman's costumes) anyway.. thanks you for your support.. Please chime in on the Raffle thread so I can make it official.. actually Admin will make it official as soon as he can upgrade your membership to Orange.. AC/Lani
