I don't know and am surprised by the silence.

Yes I have the same problem here. Instead of letting the A/C unit do it's job, she turns the temperature way UP or way DOWN depending on if she's too hot or too cold .. she thinks it will get better "faster" if she sets it to an extreme temperature.

Tritium is a gas. For tritium lume, the gas is captured in the luminescent "paint" material. It is not the tritium which glows .. the radioactive tritium excites the lume paint and makes it glow in the same way that light excites SuperLuminova and makes it glow. Some watches use very small tubes of tritium gas instead of a solid lume "paint" .. fun fact - If tritium escapes into the air, it combines with oxygen and creates a molecule of radioactive water

Very nice, and yes ... Every hobby has purists and it's best to not debate them.

I read it was a very cheap Asia watch that they delivered to a screen printer who wrote PATEK on them .. I believe they had 10 watches prepared.

pssst do not argue with audiophiles

QFT ... a significant percentage of the population are half-insane d-bags.

Ohhhh. Pie Um !! It all makes sense now.

Just as an explanation, this is wall art from a travelling carnival ride, painted by the resident Carnies.

I see that WBK was removed as well. Maybe an editing error while removing WBK?

Her RWG dealer listing is gone. So something happened here, locally.

Trusted Dealer does not mean Lowest Price Dealer ... you have to look around at all the prices and decide for yourself.

It certainly looks like a screw-down HeV, like a Planet Ocean. Not automatic ...

I have a normal / thin wrist .. here is 45 and 42 ....

Sounds great. We have around a dozen trusted dealers here for everything from watches, clothes, tools, leather goods ... no scams and fair pricing.

Great find. Thanks

It's good to see you posting more to the Forum, Vac. GLWS ~

For automatic movements, you should wind it enough to start it running steadily then wear it. The mainspring of an automatic is not permanently attached to the barrel wall and is designed to slip when it's over-wound so the crown will never come to a full stop if you wind it to "full power" ... I suppose the question has a different answer depending on what you do all day. Do you sit at a desk, pushing papers around? You will probably never move enough to keep your watch wound so YES wind it manually. 40 turns for a fully depleted watch. If you spend a reasonable part the day on your feet walking around then the watch will wind itself. I once counted the spins it took for the power reserve meter on my Ulysse Nardin to move from Empty to Full power .. 1000 spins of the rotor!

HUH!! I just saw her RWG forum the other day and there was no announcement regarding her removal --- ??

Being a Trusted Dealer does not mean they have the lowest price. Sometimes they are the most expensive. You must decide which dealer you want to buy from. Look at all the TDs and decide who has the best price and service you want.

The new 390 on Donerix' custom Cayman-flank strap ...

I suppose that is why they are charging $140 instead of $340 for this one.

A few dealers have customer newsletters which show previews of and describe coming releases. I know PureTime did ..

and that is where uneasy/impatient customers go ballistic. I'm sure its very troublesome to deal with some of them.
