Nineteen Seventies

I thought we'd be sold out by now.. with all the members that wanted this to happen ??? let's get this done so one of you can take home a Speedy !! AC Lani

emery board. all you ant to do is "dull" the edges... finish with a pen eraser...this will take it back to the original finish.. then you'll be ready to oxidize the metal (if your so inclined) AC Lani

Andy.. maybe ask the vets to start hunting down their memorabilia and assemble a team, Dems seems to have a good collection of items.. roertk definitely has older reps that go back a ways .. Ubi has pics of his first frankens.. I know somewhere there's a history of how T and some buddy's actually started up their first rep forum .. it would be a good start to your project. AC Lani

reason it's used for lifting fingerprints of paper products and such..

ya dun good P4.. regardless

Generations

Since it was invented to close wounds.. I basically use it for lacerations.. it really works miracles on closing up cuts .. instantly.. using it on a bezel insert once froze up my bezel.. (of course .. that was just my lack of common sense at the time)

Clock

That's a great compliment and I thank you Sir ! Poi is gotten so expensive ... I likes mine fresh and thick . P4.. I got your Black Magic .. Who's yo ........ AC L

Hauoli la ha Nau TJ !!.. have a great tme with family and friends !! Hour vision today

Unlike some women (not wives ) these get better "looking" with age.. AC L

boredom at the office does not a super star make.. besides it wasn't an original post.

way to go Red !!

needs chiefs AR,... seriously.. thanks Omni for the pics.. enjoyed viewing them.. it's a gem of a watch.. hope you had a fun in the big apple.. now back to "mountain apples" AC lani

some info.. Omega parts can be had through Ofrei.. or Cousins specifically for the UPO the link below UPO franken parts Pugwash has a great pictorial upgrade thread for the UPO in the Omega section. Rolex as alluded to on ebay.. or the TZ.. never post frankens or reps on that forum.. googling the part or brand usually gives you a better idea of where they are at.. Straps are abundant all over the net.. we have certain vendors that are here on the forum under accessories also.. all of my rolex parts have come from ebay or members here.. keep in mind modding is not like changing a tire.. so move slowly and good luck AC Lani

thought that the DP issue was fixed..

After the Seawolf.. there hasn't really been anything exciting to stir the Brand.. when the economy bottomed out a lot of replications were put on the back burner or scrapped altogether, dealers were left holding the bag on genuine purchases.. It has affected the traffic in the Breitling section.. you can only post so many SA pics.. and also with the down traffic many members have sold their reps.. even their gens. to purchase other brands it would be interesting to hear from the hard core rep/gen owners if they have seen a reduction of interest in the brand. and lastly more members are turning to the vintage frankens be it rolex or Pams.. which is not a bad thing as I found myself less attracted to the modern models and have gravitated more towards the vintage Rolex and now the Pre-A Pams.. got one in the works now.. With Kruzers work in getting RWG the exclusive Vintage 3646 case set made per order .. more and more members are gravitating to other brands.. Or... members are holding out for Gio's threads...

No harm ~ No foul WS.. Admin has put a lot of time to the software to see that there is no way that it could be tampered with.. Mod's give up any option to include themselves in any raffles or giveaways so that it will not impede on their goal of making this forum safe.. I do get passionate about what we do here.. as you are too I'm sure.. The member that is the owner of the Speedy is lowering the market value of his Omega so we as a Community can keep operating.. There have been times in the past where Admin reached into his own pocket for the monthly usage fees.. more members are stepping up their "Supporter" donations and these raffles just keep others from having to donate their own money.. so we are doing everything possible to make this a Win~Win situation.. maybe someday we can have enough supporters for more "giveaway" functions.. where the watches don't come form members collections.. but until that day.. we do what we can.. luck to you WS and thanks for your support !! AC lani

we've had a larger one.. but first and foremost this Forum will Never >> EVER, be anything but forthright with it's membership !!! I would stake my entire collection on it. !!!!!!!!!! Admin and his Team.. and myself as the Raffle dude.. have nothing to gain from these raffles other than not having to make larger donations ourselves to keep this forum operating 24/7 .. 365 day's a year... as was the case awhile ago.. where the same members would make special donations to keep us afloat... as we had to do before your arrival to this forum. Other Fora's choose to run their boards however "they' see fit .. We have never been nor will we ever be a "for Profit" forum, .. and it would end whatever raffles we have planned for the future if we tried to "control" the outcome.. we can ask Admin to post a list before the last tickets are sold.. and anyone can view the list and results at the end of the raffle. if you are not 'satisfied' with the way these raffles are being run .. then we would be more than happy to refund your ticket..as I have nothing to hide but don't need unfounded accusations at the end ... by a disgruntled member if they should not win.. we have done everything to protect the integrity of these raffles and this forum so you are not beholding to join them WS.. AC lani

Rotti's are like many .. stereotyped .. just not so.. they are great "family" companions.. my friends rott.. "Brutus" is a gentle giant and always the first one to greet me .. he did run into my truck once.. to him it was a nudge and affectionate greeting..
