  1. I think most guys knew you was winding us up.... Everyone knows JL wore a Yellow Submariner on a plastic ono band !!
  2. A lot of women would disagree with that But IMHO quantity can be 'justasgood' as quality !!
  3. Oh!! Its Word association I always wondered how he would be viewed now, as well as in the time thats past since then , if he hadn't died that day......
  4. Yes but they are having a general discussion whereas we are discussing another brand..... ;)
  5. Funny UK reports didnt say it was a HB that got robbed
  6. Congrats mate I bought one of these myself for my Mum but with the MOP dial. Its a great watch My Mum wears it as a daily beater and its still going strong and looking great
  7. I am sure you will but can you take pics before its fitted. Mainly laying on its outside so you can get a view of the thickness and edge and way the crystal moves round towards the centre of the glass inside Thanks again mate
  8. It looks great mate A fine piece of work though I aint sure on the hands in terms of the aging IMHO But thats just me I love the case
  9. Did you do this yourself or just found it ?? Bernie looks bad I wonder what his bird looked like ??
  10. As always mate.... Awesome work I really cant recommend these straps enough and John is a great guy and offers a fantastic service
  11. I do get to hear a few things from the inside as do a few members here But I aint privy to the prices of future models mate
  12. I appreciate that mate and your English is a million times better than any other language I might try to speak. I did agree with what you said before about Uni Profs being more reserved and aloof (Introverted) I just meant this particular Prof
  13. I know the frustration but once you learn how to get round the character number issue it can be a great resource
  14. Easier to tell me where you are mate then I can tell ou best options PM me is best
  15. Sounds good me old mate Look forward o hearing the outcome of the prototype Thanks for all your hard work
  16. PAM was based on the description of Flamboyant but not blingy Generally though I would agree with the Prof statement
  17. Mate you need to lower your expectation of the reps we buy this aint the same a going into a shop etc. We are lucky (arguably spoilt) by the trusted dealers here. These are trusted in so far as they wont scam you The fact they sell these on the basis these are reps and arent perfect, you take the best you can get and make it better thats the game Be happy with what Mary is giving you mate as for a service etc That just wont happen you could find GF that when you get it it wont work or wont reset or DW wont change etc etc It happens thats our world It aint perfect but our TDs will take it back if you send it and will replace it but you will pay for P&P etc so its cheaper to do the service it needs rather than bother going thru all that again, hopefully you understand what I am trying to say This is rep QC not the QC we all understand as Western Consumers etc. What you have now from the dealers is night and day from how things use to be !! I remember my dad putting me on his knee and telling the old rep horror stories !!! Or was it Don :) ??
  18. Vermont !!! Now that surprises me given its location etc I can understand California and Texas from its history and location Now I have another thing to google !!
  19. I think at that price it was a must for the buyer!! There are just to many fakes being sold !!! ;) Got to love these and totally agree with WM but not with Eton only because his sig has lost that drool factor for me !! ;)
  20. I will PM Orloff and ask him to PM you mate
  21. The Ultimate is IMHO better than DSNs though both a good reps without doubt. I wouldnt buy one unless I knew I was modding it further as it dont stand up to scrutiny as well. The new 111 is also very good and for your budget I think is perfect the next ones in that budget that arent half bad are the 312. 320 etc But allow for a good quality strap as it really makes a difference to the look and feel dont buy cheap ones!! Or the 288 might be one you could be very confident with. If you go higher in budget then get a 236 or 250 (Same watch different straps/bracelets) These are probably the best reps for your money currently. If your not in a rush then a few more are coming soon and into the new year Good luck mate Let us know what you decide
  22. Green Jacket colour stitch!! Thats a winner for me Looks very nice mate and something different !!
