  1. Very nice review, however I hasten to add that MBW make the only decent rep of the SD and they have been using the Correct size case for some time now. Very nice review and very diplomatic in it's approach, well written and I commend you for taking the time to do so. Kudos.
  2. Ah ha! There is the sound of someone hitting the nail smack bang right on the head.
  3. I didn'y really wanna get involved in this but noone else really picked up on it except TTK. NO NO NO NO NO. It is not even a little bit "by rights" yours. It is by rights" Ron's, and if he CHOOSES to ALLOW you to transfer it then kudos to him as it's HIS CHOICE. I don't wanna come across as a [censored], but c'mon, he paid for it he registered it, and you think it's yours how the hell you come by that idea? I know that it was suggested to you and that maybe Ron was watching, liked it and was just faster than you, however, THEM'S THE BREAKS. As TTK said, if you ain't fast you're last. This is a big boys world and it's survival of the fittest in business, so I think that it is first off very noble of Ron to GIVE you the domain, so quit winging about it. Moreover I feel Ron has sufficiently explained the reason for the delay, even though "by rights" he doesn't have to.
  4. Aw poor soccerless aussie lol. Sorry luv ya big dude.
  5. What's worse, Viduka popped up in the 90th to really [censored] up my night. Gonna really drown my sorrows now, so if y'all never hear from me again I have slit my wrists.
  6. Haven't got a clue, he got the hallowed "Vote of Confidence" from Romanov, so prolly be gone by the weekend. It's the players who need shot not him. The tactics were [censored] but the play was even worse. i have seen pub teams better than them lol. One good game in a season gubbin the tic aint gonna cut it.
  7. Yeh, home before the postcards, except we didn't even have time to find bloody postcards lol. 9 men what a joke. They don't deserve to win anythin.

  9. Ah so the there is some scot in you lol!! Good Lad!
  10. No matter how far you roam you will always be inferior........to your far superior wife.........(For all who don't know......she's Scottish!) So I say congrats to Mrs. Pugwash. LOL
  11. Congrats my friend that is a beautifull piece and I know how much it means to you to get things finished, I am glad you have enjoyed the journey, and congrats on completing this project and kudos on the fine pics.
  12. Much appreciated MAHLER and my main man Ubi. Much love to you both. And no i amn't Heath ledger.
  13. I need some suggestions for a drill to do this procedure as the dremel is too high speed and just breaks bits like there's no tomorrow. Any suggestions on the best drill for the job? What you use?
  14. How the [censored] did puma get away with that. She has man juice on her leg and everythin, jesus. Personally think it's brilliant but no way the censors here would have allowed that unfortunately. BTW, she must be pretty crap how the [censored] did she miss her mouth?
  15. Unfortunately not my friend. The MBW Vintage watches all come with singer blanks, but they are rep dials not genuine. Sorry to disappoint
  16. Whilst travelling to Gibraltar of all places, I noticed a gentleman on my flight with a 111 who was wearing it on a ss bracelet, I had mine on a BOB Vertigo Brown, he actually came up to me to compliment my choice in watch, and never had any idea that it was a $100 Chines Version of the watch he paid plenty for. We chatted for about 10 mins or so about watches, he was a Corporate Manger and owned 3 Pam's and asked me if I had any other watches, to which I obviously replied with a veritable who's who of my rep collection of the time, and also my 2 gens. Failing to make any distinction between them of course.
  17. Hola Alextor La buena suerte con el proyecto y me dejó sabe va. El blanqueo es definitivamente la mejor opción, sin el agua agregada, blanqueo justo del uso. Buonas tardes Edge
  18. Glad to see you managed to get it done, and I know you posted in this thread already but here is the thread regarding vintagizing the bezel insert, which is a reasonably simple process, with some good examples from Myself, and Ubi at this point, but hopefully some good examples from Repaustria soon, as well as some NOT SO GOOD examples of what happens if you leave it in too long from both me and Ubi. VINTAGIZE YOUR BEZEL INSERT
  19. Keep em coming guys, I look forward to seeing your attempts Oli, I love the 5512 so let us see how that goes. Glad that y'all are giving this a go as it really is easy, and the only prob is not leaving it in the bleach too long. Nanuq - You have PM.
  20. Personally want to see the yellow version that I have oggled over and had on numerous times at my AD, either the chrono or the plain I really don't care they are both AWESOME!!
  21. I was not reffering to you in particular Mahler, I was reffering to the peopl who, 3 pages into a discussion are still asking if this is the same George as MBW George, thos who are still asking if WM9 sells MBW's and suchlike, not as to whetherthe bracelet is solid gold. The dealers have access to the deep rehaut TW best cases, EL has been selling these for a long time, whether he stocks the TT sub is up to him. But the general cases are made by the same supplier and are of the same quality. I have no doubts that WM9 may well upgrade these with Solid gold bracelets and bezels, but IMHO this does not merit the inflated price hike as the general quality of the essentials of the watch, for example the dial or printing is still below par, and on first glance worse than many offerings from our dealers. The fact that WM9 then Lies about some of his products, and some of the details of these products, for instance the non existance of lug holes in his reps, where the gens CLEARLY have lug holes etc. I was not having a go at you for asking questions MAHLER, at least your questions have not been answered yet, however there are people who are posting asking things that have been answered 3,4,5 or more times, like is this the same Geroge? etc. Please don't feel I was having a pop at you this was not the case I was merely trying to STOP people repeating questions that have already been answered in the thread. Non li ho significati Mahler. Il mio reclamo era che qualche gente ha ripetuto le domande che già sono state fatte. Ciò è stata significata per coloro che ha scritto “è questa lo stesso George che vendite MBW? Non ritenga prego che è stato diretto voi, esso non era. Avete fatto le domande valide quale non sono state risposte a, a partire da ancora. Scusi il mio italiano, non ho parlato o scritto italiano per circa 4 anni.
  22. I Almost enjoyed reading this thread, UNTIL I realised that some of you people just refuse to read all of what has been written before you. KEY POINTS!!!! Watchmaker9 IS NOT MBW George. Final no if's but's or maybe's THEY ARE NOT the same person, but some coincidence 2 people on this planet happen to have been name George by their parents, I know that is hard to fathom, that not all names are Unique but hey [censored] happens. Watchmaker9 DOES NOT SELL MBW WATCHES As has been mentioned by a few members now these are TW best cases, which MAY or MAY NOT have been upgraded with bezels, crown, etc.... One thing for sure they are not MBW. MBW George's VINTAGE watches (1680,1665 etc.) are 100% GUARANTEED MBW QUALITY My MBW 1680 is from George and without a doubt easily the best Vintage watches available anywhere, and believe me I have seen A LOT of vintage models NONE compare to MBW. MBW George's MODERN watches ARE NOT MBW's they are the same good quality reps that Josh and Andy and EL etc. carry The modern watches have the same flaws and issues that all of our dealers versions have, as has been confirmed now by more than one dealer, these modern subs etc are NOT MBW's they are the same as the others. Watchmaker9's TT Blue sub that wa compared to a genuine is IMHO Pitiful for the price It has the same issues as the TW cases we see from our dealers FOR MUCH LESS!! The alignment of the m's the swiss made and the DATEMAG are Awefull, even the datefont is crap. Therefore no matter if the crown is RG and the bracelet has solid gold, it's still crap, as anyone who knows anything about subs will laugh at it. I really cannot believe that someone has the gaull to sell a watch with THAT datemag for over $500 it is daylight robbery. I hope that you all get the watches that you are looking for but come on, we have dealers here who service our needs and don't ask ANYWHERE near those price for the SAME quality IF NOT WORSE than what we have seen. The waterproofing is SOOOOOO Simple, take 5 mins out of your day and waterproof your own watch, i'm sorry but this WM9 guy is WAY overpricing his offering and over valueing the work done, you would have thought that maybe he would start with a better canvas. IMHO not worth the money for what MAY BE a solidbracelet and bezel, and on the OFF CHANCE a dial may have a slightly better hue, when it ahs glaring errors on the printing. The other offerings on his site are average or poor, especially conidering watches that ARE meant to have lugholes have them ommited in his reps, how disgracefull is that, why even consider paying thos prices. END OF RANT. People Please READ what has been written in the posts before you and NOT post the same questions over and over and over.......NO this is not MBW George lol, just in case you missed that lol.
  23. Logic says that the outgoing and return journeys should cancel out, as the current will be beneficial one way and detrimental the other. However having done similar in reality it takes longer to go against the current, than you make up with it. My answer though is, The Same.
  24. Actually Mr. Becker would only have to schedule one match to determine the WINNER, because ONLY the FINAL determines the WINNER. HAHAHAHAHA!!!!
