  1. Thanks, The pic were taken with a Canon 400d, the lens was a Tamron 70-300 Di. As for objective, I have no idea what that means sorry, I'm just learning how to use it. I think they are awesome too, have you thought about a mini fiddy? You might get away with that.
  2. Messing about with my camera tonight I took these, Funny, when I first joined I said I would never buy one, now I could not see myself not owning one.
  3. I like Silix, he has helped me out in the past. Maybe not the quickest response from him but he is a good guy.
  4. Skeleton is nice mate, I like that a lot.
  5. Lots of good honest buyers and sellers at TZ-UK, good site that.
  6. Have a search under China movements for 8413, from memory I think they have the first two numbers back to front. EDIT Beaten to it by Andy
  7. Wow, thats not good. Sorry to hear that and thanks for letting us know. Where would we be without The Zigmeister.
  8. I've owned them all and the white is the nicest in my humble opinion, Great taste Victoria as usual. Can't believe I doubted the mighty Pugwash Like others have said if your Steelfish is white, then the strap would work just fine. I like this rep strap on it, looks pretty good on my seawolf too.
  9. Thats unreal Brake cleaner is fun stuff though, Once when my supervisor was ignoring me in the workshop, I sprayed his heals and drew a squiggly line on the ground, moving backwards untill the can was empty (20ft away by now), I then shouted his name, and as he looked on with a puzzled expression,I lit the line of brake cleaner. Woooosh......... The look on his face was amazing, he never even moved (well, untill his heels were up on fire anyway) He even saw the funny side of it after a few hours Next time he cleans the watch,.......you know what to do
  10. I have one of these, pins in the bracelet, eta. The bezel was a shade of blue too light on mine so I picked up a chrono bezel for it. I fitted a set of gen hands and forgot to get a second hand Once the bezel is fitted and the second hand on it should be pretty nice. This is an old pic, I made a pearl for the old bezel some of you might remember.
  11. I'd have one too if you can be bothered . (UK based as well)
  12. Thats disturbing news, I bought one a while ago and fitted it to a 42mm PO. I was thinking of buying another for m UPO. If anyone else has a spare lying around, feel free to shoot me a PM.
  13. wow, I'm surprised by that, I thought more lume applied would make it brighter, cheers for the insight The Zigmeister. I've spent bloody ages in the past carefully scrapping off the old lume. Everyday is a schoolday around here
  14. I'm afraid I was, "Sufficiently refreshed" as I typed that last night. It should have read, daughters, aged 17 and 10years. 17! , still cant believe it, I'm only bloody 36 too. Thanks very much for all the advice and tips guys.
  15. Hi guys, Planning a holiday in Orlando, September/October this year. Just wondered if anyone had some local knowledge and could advise of things to do and see. Obviously I will be doing the usual Disney/Warner Bros. stuff but do you know of any gems I would otherwise miss? I'm going with my wife and my daughter (10& 17) for 3weeks and staying in a villa in Kissimmee. Probably the last holiday we will have all together for a few years so I want to make it a good one. Thought about a trip to the Everglades and maybe a trip down to Miami. Any advice would be warmly received. Hyster.
  16. No country for old men, great cast, very watchable .........but the end That will be it finished then.......
  17. I'm just off to bed DemonSlayer but you could have a look at By-tor's excellent guide to the Omega Seamaster, http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=4509 Theres a bit about resizing the bracelet, it will give you a good idea of what you are doing. Just to repeat, if you are not sure, either ask or take it to a watch booth to be resized. Good luck.
  18. Im not being smart here but are you sure they are not pins? For the screws, a tight fitting screwdriver makes all the difference, I've even put the bracelet in hot water to expand the metal slightly, sometimes works sometimes not. Don't round off the heads of the screws, stop before you do that and........ If you are really struggling, take them to a watch booth, you know the kind, in shopping centers and the like, just don't take them to an Authorized dealer.
  19. Thanks for posting that Offshore, Very interesting video there.
  20. Very much enjoyed reading that, Gioarmani. Well done.
  21. When he asked to see it, "not a f*ck1ng chance" would have looked more believable.
  22. Nice watches, nicely photographed, some real cracking watches there, well done.
  23. Don't know about now but I have read that there are plans to rep a Graham later in the year. If you so a search I'm sure you will find a thead about it and other models in the pipeline.
