  1. Interesting story thanks for sharing. As for your question, someone else has to answer, me newbie
  2. Oooo nice. Oh, I'm spliting this with a friend, so 6 each. Or maybe 3 friends. One good thing about getting single winders are, if one breaks, the other ones still work.
  3. Being cheeeeap.... I came across these. What do you think? Its not those fancy smancy ones, but it does have these features: # Clockwise or counterclockwise rotation. # Super silent motors (no noise) # IC Timer: 1 hour moving 3 hours resting. http://www.4-watches.com/watch-winder/index.html I emailed them with some questions and they promptly replied: 1) what if some of the 12 was not working properly or has defect ? (whats the exchange policy?) http://www.4-watches.com/casio/policy.html 2) how are the quality of these winders? Good. 3) can the AC adaptor be constantly plugged without the danger of overheating? I have not had any one with this problem or any problem.

    You pull it up (unlock) then it turns the inner bezel. THen push back down to lock it again. Quite neat.

    What is everyone's opinion of Oris watches? I like the flight Timer Flight Timer
  7. I go to Chapters/indigo just for those magazines !! But who can afford a $29 dollar magazine !!
  8. But when I went to Venice 2 yrs ago, rode on the gondola, it was pretty sad. Because the entire town was a ghost town. No one lives there anymore, buildings were dirty and in ruins, and its all run up by shops trying to lure tourists. So I thought I'd be totally impressed by Venice, but I was left with a feeling of sadness and emptiness
  9. Hehe Cost: Priceless? Maybe more like 1 billion dollars to raise a kid
  10. Yes, very slow. Oh, try the other tracking websites too. I tired the last one and found it at Lam Kupur, then suddenly it was at my house that same night !!
  11. Sad news, unfortunately, the Omega clasp is not closing properly. Also when I pull to the 3rd click to adjust the date, if I go anti-clockwise, the needles do NOT move and it comes looser and looser, (probably unscrew right out if I continue) ! Is this normal ? And the G on the GMT is not properly painted/formed. So with these things, I have to mail back to Andrew and he will replace it. Sucks that shipping is gonna cost me a lot !!!
  12. Oh i see. It is spinning so fast, doesn't even sound like it was attached to anything. I thought something came loose big time .
  13. Gee... I almost dropped my jaw there for a sec. Why does it spin like that?
  14. I have two watches, one is Asian Automatic 21J, the other is Swiss ETA 2824-2 Automatic. When I hold them in my hand and move them side to side medium fast, then stop, I can hear the pendulum (I think thats what you call it) inside spin freely by itself quite fast. Then slows and stops. They are both not fully wound, barely 1 day of wearing in a few days. Is this normal? What's going on?
  15. Wow, great stories all. But I was totally distracted from the AVATAR pics !!! Geeez.... EDGE, who is that Jap ?
  16. It looks beautiful right now. What are the mods?
  17. Me too... I can't wait !! I loved that last Anime Transformer movie with Cybertron, etc. I actually have the very old Japanese Transformers (with Micro-man) with real die-cast made. Sitting in a box, waiting for its value to go up hehe
  18. Wow, nice. Sleek and classy !!
  19. I'm new myself, and just got my first 2 reps (Omega SMP GMT and Bell&Ross) from Trustytime. Both arrived safely in about 4 days after my Paypal transaction. I've learned a lot from this forum and tons more to learn. From what I see here, Perfect Clones's Josh is very highly regarded. So there is more confidence if you ordered from him. At least you know his work is not a scam (like others I've read on here). I'm not sure how you can tell if the movement is ETA, etc... I guess you'd have to open it up and really know what you are looking for ?
  20. It was faster than I thought. I was just using the tracking, seeing "okay its in Lum Kapur, Thailand? Malaysia? Then when I got home, package at my mailbox, I'm like NO WAY !!" After opening like 5 layers of bubble wrap and envelopes, there they were !! Yes, it looks very nice in person. Very classy and shiny. Sure attracts attention. The black leather band with white stitching looks sharp too. Now I'm not sure if the date position is correct, I think the real one has it at 5 or 6 o'clock? But that's okay, non of my friend have actually seen a real B&R anyways haha
