Join in the RWG-lottery and you might very well win the tool set you need!

Great for good old KH Give him my regards, been a fan of his since '89!

..a huge watch too!! I don't know just why this kind of watch appeals to me.. Part of me thinks it's ugly as sin, and another want anything stainless and big from the 70's.. I have a few walkmans I have collected, and some 70's compact cameras... I think I might have been born 30 years too late. I would never wear it, I'd just keep it on the shelf, as a cool item. Gotta love the 70's.. The '76 Montreal Olympics Special Ed "Imma smack yo mouf with this!" Anybody bumped into one of these on your way around the world? I see a few of them for sale.

I have been looking at Nixons for a while, I would love this as a dress watch.. I like heavy watches too! Anybody seen a wristshot?

My condolences, losing a friend is tough..

..half a lump of COLD poison for dinner.. I think Smith & Jones did a version of this skit...

Maybe a 112h? Luminor base..

I have Trusty's $158 111h, and I love it. It was my first PAM. It feels solid and I got it with a tan leather strap and not the rubber he's showing on the site. I am sure you'll be happy with it unless you hit a lemon. BTW: If you find a nice PAM 192, GO FOR IT!

respect, Wan.

No, but I suspect you are seeing double

One of my favourite Monty Python bits.. Live At Drury Lane.. It's four rich guys, sitting around talking about the old days, if you haven't seen it, I think you can find over at youtube or some place like that. It ends something like this: FOURTH YORKSHIREMAN: I was happier then and I had nothin'. We used to live in this tiny old house with great big holes in the roof. SECOND YORKSHIREMAN: House! You were lucky to live in a house! We used to live in one room, all twenty-six of us, no furniture, 'alf the floor was missing, and we were all 'uddled together in one corner for fear of falling. THIRD YORKSHIREMAN: Eh, you were lucky to have a room! We used to have to live in t' corridor! FIRST YORKSHIREMAN: Oh, we used to dream of livin' in a corridor! Would ha' been a palace to us. We used to live in an old water tank on a rubbish tip. We got woke up every morning by having a load of rotting fish dumped all over us! House? Huh! FOURTH YORKSHIREMAN: Well, when I say 'house' it was only a hole in the ground covered by a sheet of tarpaulin, but it was a house to us. SECOND YORKSHIREMAN: We were evicted from our 'ole in the ground; we 'ad to go and live in a lake. THIRD YORKSHIREMAN: You were lucky to have a lake! There were a hundred and fifty of us living in t' shoebox in t' middle o' road. FIRST YORKSHIREMAN: Cardboard box? THIRD YORKSHIREMAN: Aye. FIRST YORKSHIREMAN: You were lucky. We lived for three months in a paper bag in a septic tank. We used to have to get up at six in the morning, clean the paper bag, eat a crust of stale bread, go to work down t' mill, fourteen hours a day, week-in week-out, for sixpence a week, and when we got home our Dad would thrash us to sleep wi' his belt. SECOND YORKSHIREMAN: Luxury. We used to have to get out of the lake at six o'clock in the morning, clean the lake, eat a handful of 'ot gravel, work twenty hour day at mill for tuppence a month, come home, and Dad would thrash us to sleep with a broken bottle, if we were lucky! THIRD YORKSHIREMAN: Well, of course, we had it tough. We used to 'ave to get up out of shoebox at twelve o'clock at night and lick road clean wit' tongue. We had two bits of cold gravel, worked twenty-four hours a day at mill for sixpence every four years, and when we got home our Dad would slice us in two wit' bread knife. FOURTH YORKSHIREMAN: Right. I had to get up in the morning at ten o'clock at night half an hour before I went to bed, drink a cup of sulphuric acid, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our Dad and our mother would kill us and dance about on our graves singing Hallelujah. FIRST YORKSHIREMAN: ..An' you try and tell the young people of today that ..... they won't believe you. I laugh my norwegian ass off every time I see this bit.. When Graham Chapman goes 'LOOXURY' LOL!

Albatross.... get your albatross 'ere! ....albatross.... albatross!!! It's a bird mate, it's a bloody bird, it's not any bloody flavor.... Albatross!!!

Wouldn't it be great to just don some coveralls with the OP-logo on 'em, the name "Guido" embroided on the chest, stroll into the Panerai factory, all whistling and nodding to your fellow italians.. Walk casually over to the great big box with all the freshly machined, fat, shiny wonderful crowns, and scoop up a whole handful of them, put them in the pocket of your replica coveralls, reach in there again, and fill the other pocket... Turn around, smiling to the foreman who didn't see what you just did, and walk out of there... Big real smile on your lips..?

Thanks a lot for your work, Admin. I can only speak for myself, but based on myself I can tell you what I think happens when new people come to this board.. When I came here 7 weeks ago I didn't have a paypal account, I had never paid for anything online, except for with my credit card in large webshops. I opened up a PP-account to buy a watch from Overboosted, and having this easy access account, it made it easier for me to support.. Before I came here it was unthinkable for me to pay for a service like this, though I have been an active member at different types of boards for years. The internet promotes free information, hit and run, and I am not surprised that only a hard core of 7-8% is willing to pay. I suppose most people see this great forum as a "fake watch google" of sorts.. I paid because you asked me to. It's as simple as that. Not having a personal relationship with any of you, I did it because it felt the decent thing to do. NRG is right when he says it's gotta be in your face and up front. If you are anything like me, Admin, it sucks to ask people for money, and you only do it when it is very necessary. When it IS necessary, it should be in people's face. Ads are too easy to ignore.. I like paying a whole lot better than asking people to pay. When very active, long time members of the board don't support, I'd think it's either because they feel it's not worth it, they are cheap, or they have spent all their money on watches. There are the select few that contribute in other ways, and they are, of course, exempt.. I don't really have a solution to the problem, and I don't think closing the board is the right way to go.. I know I would turn around at the door if I saw you required a fee to be here. And whenever I see "free" online, I tend to get sceptical. I'll probably support this forum for as long as I actively use it. How about downscaling if not downgrading where it can be done? I have no clue on how to rent and run a server or website, but does the security of an expensive one match up to the cost? Is all the security needed? I've done enough illegal stuff online other places.. Sometimes with full name and address. This is not critique of the way you run things, and I am sure you have thought this through, I just want the questions out there. Thanks again to the management for keeping this street clean. -Ape-

That's huge! Thick as a baby's arm! I want one. A pam crown like that that is

-cough- We had Dennis Bergkamp, a stand up kinda guy.. Yes, afraid of flying, but he was a fantastic team player. Always looking out for the new kids.. And you never saw hiw throw a fit.. 'cept a few infamous ones that I am sure none of you remember anyway, so I won't bore you with those..

Updated house facade after talking to an architect, personally I don't think it looks as good as it did. We plan to build a two car garage next to it, with a loft.. After arguing with mrs Ape about the size of the bay windows, they are extended to 1400mm now, and she wants them 200mm taller.. Crazy wimmen.. With our storms?!

OH yeah! Do we ever! In summer, between June 29. and 5th of july, we have GREAT weather, the ice melts, the wimmen all don bikinis, and we barbecue, waterski, swim and laugh... Then after 5 o'clock we go back to being miserable bunad-clad northern europeans again... Gutting fish and pumping oil. Oh happy days.

Won 5-1 today! two new signings scoring 3 of the goals.. But it was against Dynamo Kiev, so it don't really count.. check previous page for my score list

Yeah, Kenberg, I'll need new watches after going after mine with that lime-squeezer-looking thingy and those nailfiles.. And what's that blue thingy? Looks like what I use to get snot out of my baby girl's nose when she's got a cold... Anyway, my girlfriend told me I have to stop buying my watches if I get the highest bid on this:

Tonight's games Lille - Milan 0-0 AEK Athens - Anderlecht 1-1 Arsenal - Porto 2-0 Celtic - Copenhagen 1-0 Benfica - Man Utd 0-1 Real Madrid - Dynamo Kiev 5-1 Steua Bucuresti - Lyon 0-3 CSKA Moscow - Hamburg 1-0 If my connection is not fooling me http://www.uefa.com/Competitions/UCL/index.html for tables and stuff

OK, that's me down for 4 tickets, hoping to speed it up a little so I can win it faster.. I have come to appreciate this forum, and I feel safe knowing I can seek medical help here too.. I would appreciate you all to post lower res photos of your watches while I am at sea, seeing as the satellite connection is not that fast. Thanks 18, 23, 42 and 64 come on.. coooome on.. oooh lucky numbers oooooh lucky numbers.. I was 18 the first time I had real sex.. I've had sex with (roughly) 23 pretty girls, not counting girls who slapped me after. The oldest one I ever did it with was 42 (not counted in the 23 btw) And 64 because it was the first year they made the mighty Mustang. Edit: That's roughly as in "circa" not rough sex..

I love it.. It's an absolutely beautiful watch.. I want it, but I have aversions against 7750s, and owning the quartz version, even with its crap datewheel, I can't get myself to buy this one.. ..yet. I learned you should never say never when it comes to watches. BTW: What's the difference between the plain-dial SMP Chrono Mickey Padge shows here and the wavy-patterned dial I see other places? Are they two different versions, or just variations?

I figure winning a set of watch tools will cost me more than it will do me any good ..I'm what we call a "Sledgehammer Mechanic"...
