  1. Try the straps section in photography mate But I think a few pics would really help
  2. Sead, Vac, WBK and possibly Rex though I think he stopped supplying now and just mods. Sead is Sead1999 or Supermirrors and Vac is Vaccum WBK is WackoBirdKeeper Or for Rollies go BK (BKLM1234)
  3. :thumbsupsmileyanim: O.T. "I dont know that...Arggghhhh!!! !"
  4. Picking up on Hikes idea ...Here goes And Now the Wristie !!
  5. I have never bought as an investment per se but I do think about residual value on the more expensive watches I have bought if I needed to liquidate or if I sold later down the line but it isnt a major factor but more a consideration.. I think if I started considering my collection in that way or even just a few of them the reason I want them in the first place would diminish...
  6. Great idea mate O.T. Whats the flight velocity of a swallow ???
  7. Funny I just posted on Robs thread about "wanting for Xmas" I added I wanted to see more participation from the 'lurkers' and 'reader only' members...... then I read this !! I personally think the key to this is getting guys to get more involved in any of the threads, the more they do the more they will feel comfortable posting in things like WristCheck as mentioned it takes no time really to take a quick pic and post using attached file button (Once its been resized!!!) or of course using PB or Flickr etc. I know some forums will lapse your membership if you dont post in a certain time frame (2 a month etc) not that I endorse that... Most pics I see arent true wristies (to me that is) as on the whole they tend to be old personal gallery shots or all arty looking, dont get me wrong I love those pics but maybe if the wristies were true wristies taken quickly on the day and on the wrist then the quality will be more of a level playing field and will give guys without great pic skills the confidence to post.. Maybe we need a little incentive.... voting maybe or something with Free VIP membership for 3 months or the like for the best noob shot or under certain number of posts etc Ever notice that the Majority of them over a week are Rolex's !!
  8. Overall I think its a great watch for the dosh
  9. He is busy sending out all those great pics!! I want one more thing though!! I would like all the lurkers and reader members on here to start getting involved more!! Don't be shy guys! This place will only get better and better if you post - it don't matter if you know a lot or just a little...blimey just look at me!! I know a lot about nothing and all these guys put up with me!! Thats what makes this place a great place to be.... So I want more members to get involved !!! :thumbsupsmileyanim:
  10. Nice Work mate on the coating Be worth grabbing some of B's 1:1's for this Though wouldnt want the dial...or a 360
  11. Ha Ha!! But I always go on the Twatometer system !! They are either a - A mouthful A handful Two Handfuls or F**k me !!! Happy Xmas guys
  12. Great share mate Those pallet forks are mesmerizing !!
  13. ASk him to confirm Chrono function as this is the only issue I have heard of with these. Also ask if he can tighten lug screws and double check these when you get them preferably with Loctite once you have the strap you want on it
  14. When you say which colour lume..Do you mean pattina of the T lume. Given the inaccuracy of the 243 I think a bright T lume rather than aged one Thats what I did with mine I have an Egyptian strap for mine
  15. Nice !! Not a Duke fan myself as the riding position was never right for me !!! Love to hear them though !!!
  16. Great work mate Not sure about those CPs though ;)
  17. The new one is good mate and you would probably find that its close but the dial colour and sub dials are slightly off as is the DW, CG, crown etc etc But I think it would not attract much critiscism as there were only 100 made !! I think you would enjoy it mate
  18. Although I agree that the 250 with A7753 is an awesome watch OTB, if you go for that then watch out for the newer ones and the lume otherwise you may need to do that as a mod I never thought I would say this but why not go for the Radiomir 288 it is a fantastic OTB rep !! Best so far IMHO There I said it still cant believe I did !!!
  19. Your ass is your [censored].... "get my ass back in shape.." or its a donkey
  20. Given the whites out of stock I think your choice is made !! I prefer the black personally
