  1. I need to add one more Song by Bruddah IZ from another dear to our hearts.. the Divine Ms.M I tear up at times because this is the song that my Brother and I are linked to.. he is younger and always thaought he had to stand up to sports accomplishments as h,is "Older Brother".. and I told him later that he surpassed me in all aspects, and it is I that look up to him.. This is for Kamalani.. my Love to You, my Brother..
  2. A Message to all for Unity..
  3. Here is one of my many Faves from Bruddah IZ.. he felt most free in the water where his body was not a burden to him.. we all miss him but his Love lives on through his music.... Somewhere Over the Rainbow Hope you enjoy some of the images of Our `Aina.. Look at the Joy on the Kupuna's faces and it tells of the Love here...this ones for you ma bruddah... Omni..
  4. Members here have graciously given their support and kind words to myself and Omni.. Here >2009 Hawaiian 'Membrane' of the Year However...... It did not take much thought .. the "Mana" we share in the Islands makes us what we are.. Omni..Palani ,.. myself,.. and others who started me here,..and some that log in on occasion. We are all united and as ONE.. there is no second place nor first .. I look at Omni as my Kupuna "Elder" and Palani as another kindred spirit. "Mana" .... here is the English definitional of the word.. it holds much more meaning when used in the context of Hawaii (for me) In Polynesian culture (for example, Hawaiian and Māori), mana is a spiritual quality considered to have supernatural origin
  5. Well, don't be discouraged.. I didn't hold on to my rep dial too long.. I'll see if I can hunt down the dial for you.. the genuine dial is very affordable Denz.. no worries ma brotha.. one way or another we'll help ya out.. AC/Lani
  6. WTF Denz You got your first rep ???? pics .. where~uz the pics.. That was pretty fast dog.. Live Strong and Wear it Well!! AC/L
  7. going gen today Have a good day All!! \AC/Lani
  8. Yup.. pretty much verified genuine..I'm ordering a dial too..for 129 it's worth having for a future project..
  9. YOu can pm Zig.. I don't speak for him.. but he is available for members.. He may be away on business.. I dunno.. the only way to find out .. is to contact initially through pm.. that is how we all got started with Zig.. I'm hunting high and low for the dial..it grew fricken legs.. edit add.. I am receiving the case back as a sample to find out if it is the PreV .. if it is I'll post it up for you to view..the eta 6497 can be ordered through ofrei.. the crystal through DSN and the hands from DSN also.
  10. OK.. P4GTR.. sheesh.. so sensitive
  11. You'll have to check with FGD Dan.. I had a 202A that was slightly tarnished .. but I cannot seem to locate it.. the case set is still in transit .. with the Holiday's my mail to the East coast is taking 3 times longer..
  12. yeah.. I've heard from very experienced members that have tried working on their A7750's that they have a harder time with it than the gen Rolex movements.. must be the same with the Valjoux 7750's.. you on the West coast right Pag???
  13. here in lies the issue of finding a watch smith that is "rep friendly" .. plus finding one that is as knowledgeable as Zig.. don't go saying I'm patronizing.. just telling it like it is.. weather A7750 or genuine.. it's hard to find the caliber of work that the Zig does.. AD's included. I've grown to know that sending it to Ziggy is well worth the quality of work that is done.. edit add.. for those of you that don't realize what full service by zig means.. the entire movement is dis-assembled and cleaned, oiled , timed .. etc.. some watch smiths simply drop oil on the movement and call it serviced.. I've received genuine that have been said to be serviced.. only to find enough oil on the movement to service a dozen watches.. so just because someone has a shingle up does not make them a Horologist.. and to leave a watch for repair for 5 weeks is the same as sending it away and getting better quality work.
  14. I inquired about the source and pics of a DJ dial.. Jojo can verify .. just seems to low of a price to be fo real..and 10 of them.. although 129 usd is not a huge amount to gamble.. we'll see what he says .. if he doesn't reply then that's that.. but he has been on TZ since 06 and has a good amount of posts..

  16. try Ziggy or Vac.. Pm them.. Ziggy's price list is on his web site.. as far as the A7750.. Ziggy has serviced all of mine and as he say's.. "Serviced" properly and they are very good movements. AC/L
