Sorry mate I didnt mean to make that sound so Twaty.... No mate aint me... a mate is putting one together... with W0lfs help

Listen mate... in all seriousness... before you OK that watch with Bodgit and Scarper..... you need to ask for a lume shot...... as I cant believe any watch that good would also have the correct lume ....

Any of the new PAMs just out mate... 005, 318 etc etc Just read through a few pages here and you will see

so what about "Airsure"? Any ideas? In UK you can have Standard International, Signed For and Airsure... Standard is just normal post..... but the only difference between the others is one can be tracked in transit the other only once signed for...ie confirmation of receipt.. but both should be signed for..

Sorry meant to say if you want one... Then the best OTB option is the MBK version which you can pick up from Reg (Narikka) or Robert (PWC) or from any one you know with access to MBK store...

I really am the last person on here that you should listen to with Rads mate.... In fact with anything !! But from what I have read and recall.... it really is a question of sourcing parts from here there and everywhere to get the Ultimate... I seem to recall the cartel is overpriced for what you still need to do etc... Have you thought about contacting Vac.. ? I am not sure if its wishful thinking or not but I always got the impression that there were more modded Rads on RG and threads/posts etc..... maybe try searching on there mate... There are a few places you can source parts and of course David will sell most parts from his watches so you can mix and match so to speak

Only the Poms whinge !!! The Aussies wince or is it ponce... The RoW just whine and Stevie just avoids paying for the rounds of Bheer....

I agree it aint great but are you saying you dont like his lume or the fact the gen has the T lume... if you look at the gens indeed most TST dials they do have that thin raised shinyish lume.... but of course you have options.. Get Rob to relume it with a better applied and better done T lume or see What Vac/Sead etc could build you With the last option you could look at other Tabacco dials... all depends what they can source.. Or try a want to buy for OS Tabacco dials/ models I think Hike might be able to source a reasonable 36 dial... but he is away now for a month.... he is in Asia checking up on his girls... No seriously he is doing good works to help the less fortunate...

No probs R Its defintely that measurement got the same again... trying it numerous times mate but please allow +/- 0.03 tolerance I also measured it with a couple of rulers and both were over 4mm less than 5mm

Very nice... Congrats to the wife Its the 119 not 120 Thats the second one I have seen now recently... except the other has a gen auto crystal and soon to have the gen hands Nice work

No Probs Rolf If you need any other measurements or angles just let me know

Thanks Val I appreciate your help mate

A = 7.53 B = 4.57 C = 1.07 D = 1.65 (measured from edge of bezel to edge of case...not along the angle) E = 0.59 F = 1.23 Best I could do mate... hope it helps

Blimey ST !!!! You are either a well educated bloke or being an Aussie.... related to one that got transported !! (2 Ds though ) Seriously though mate.... Thanks I just downloaded it and will have a play over the weekend..... now I must go I have to polish my sledge hammer....

Hi guys, I seem to recall that there were a couple of strap makers in the UK that had been used by members on this forum.... but for the life of me I cannot remember who they were.... Or if anyone knows any professional strap makers in UK... I dont need a strap.... I need some work done on existing gen straps... so I need someone very competent at the craft I would very grateful if anyone who knows could post here or send me a PM... Thanks again

Love it.... Looks great... I really like the way the symetery works.. If I dont know which way I am facing I can check my watch, if I dont know how warm/cold I feel I can check my watch, if I dont know the time....... I can ask someone !!! My bid is in....

I have sent you a comparison pic by PM mate

To start with I would suggest having a look at DSNs section... But there are a few options.... I just dont rate any of the dials

Agh!! Now you are just showing your ignorance of European chickens mate..... European Chickens always say........" Run Away!!! ! I will look at paint, thanks if not then you WILL have a PM

Buck Buck !! you mean Cluck Cluck P .... To be honest my problem is I cant work out how to put arrows and writing on my pics... I tried the other week and gave up... havent been back to it yet... Chicken maybe..... Lazy and IT ignorant..... definitely !!!

Theres a few on VP and risti for tang XL but nothing for deployant at the moment...

To be totally honest mate.... I dont think it has anything obvious when its on your wrist.... possibly the crystal in terms of distortion and shape.... but I couldnt see many people knowing it let alone spotting it on the wrist.. Yes there are flaws but nothing obvious.... The rep rubber in my humble opinion aint anything like the gen despite these being the best version... again its good but it aint that good

+1 but why not go 288..

You wont be disappointed with that choice mate... I did some breakdowns of this model with the 212 and 286 etc which might be worth a look if you want non dealer pics etc I am sure someone will describe what they look like..

Looks like the 49 to me mate
