  1. Here's a close up of the rep daytona that Uma Thurman was wearing in Kill Bill
  2. Someone just built a beautiful franken of these two tone "Root Beer" GMT's. I'll have to dig around to see if I can find it Here it is
  3. Good question. I'm in the same boat with my newest Franken. Haven't worn anything else in weeks!
  4. Thanks everyone. To say I am severely bummed would be a huge understatement. I feel like I lost my dog or something. Very odd to become so excited and attached to a project only to have it slip through your fingers. Of course there are several options at this point, but the bottom line is that it is getting too expensive to justify the build. This is definitely one of those situations where you are better off to buy the gen and call it a day. Thanks all for the support, encouragement and input! It's been a blast! Now what the heck am I going to build now..........
  5. Nice to have you back S! Thanks for sharing the website with us. Great little read and great cause too!
  6. Also a transplant from Ontario but living in Los Angeles. Probably not quite as friendly or hospitable as Kentucky, but it's been great living here and this is where I met my wife
  7. Welcome to the board. You are correct, there are some pretty amazing pieces available from our Trusted Dealers. Have a poke around the forum and you will find an amazing resource and a great community of folks all with very similar passions for watches and other things too!
  8. Well after a very valiant effort on the Zigmeisters part, it is with sad news that it looks like I will have to abandon this project. The gen watch/movement has a big offset between the pushers and the crown and the 7750 case sets just aren't deep enough to work with. Ziggy was even going to try milling a shim piece to thicken up the case but it just didn't work out unfortunately.
  9. American cars are for the masses. Cheap, economical and in many cases boring. Yes, the ingenuity of American engineers put man on the moon. However, American engineers also developed the "mass produced" automobile. How to build a car as cheaply as possible. Yes the CTS and CTS-V are nice looking cars but they are so horribly put together. The interior of my co-workers 2012 CTS sedan is horrible. Sure, it looks pretty in the pictures but my god it is poorly made. Same could be said of the 2007 Chevy Corvette that I got rid of last December. A rocket ship, but such a piece of junk inside. It was horrible. And it's still hand made too! What I don't understand is why are the American exports are so much better? The Holden, Vauxhal, and Euro Spec Fords. I know the Munaro is basically a Ford Fusion but it just seems nicer. Same thing with the Holden Commodore or Vauxhaul VXR8 Bathurst. What a beast of a car!!
  10. Could be related to the massive Go Daddy outage. They host A LOT of sites, and their whole entire network went down this morning. Someones definitely having a bad day over there!
  11. Agreed. The 390 is pretty amazing! Great pictures too!!
  12. Nice!! Still wearing the Triple Zero
  13. Wow!!! Simply amazing!! Well done. Looking forward to more!
  14. Someone explain to me the difference between the 5512 and 5513 again? I thought the 5512 wasn't cosc certified?
  15. Thanks K! Wait till you see it in person
  16. Wearing the '000' again for Friday:
  17. Thanks ST4!! I'm quite pleased with how the photos turned out with this one Couldn't have put it better myself! The contributions to the build make it far more special than anything else!
