  1. Anyone following? Our french members might not be happy today as they lost to Argentina... Looking forward to the All Blacks game tonite!!!
  2. I agree!!! That was the model I ordered from Sash... sigh... lets not go there... I am still hoping...
  3. hmm... any easy fix? or do i need a new stem/crown?
  4. used to wear my watch to sleep... not anymore!
  5. I have just had a problem trying to hand wind my tag link chrono. It just won't wind... the crown turns freely with no resistance. I keep trying, sometimes i can feel the resistance, but alter half a turn there is a click and it seems like the crown came loose and is winding freely again. I could have sworn that someone had this problem before but I have tried searching with no luck. Can anyone help?
  6. how is it crooked? you know the bezel is rotatable right?
  7. vic: that is a rep I got from phoband sometime ago... i think it is called a montegrappa. I have only used it a few times as I find it a bit too big for my liking! euno: where were you friday nite? I waited and waited... so ended up having your share of drinks! I am having some friends over again tonite (sat nite), so pop by if you are keen... lol...
  8. There was a gen 16613 for sale recently I came across. The guy wanted NZD4900- It was second hand, with scratches and scuff marks all round... is this a fair price?
  9. Just wanted to add the comment abuot the 31 jewel zenith HBB was a joke... its actually a cheap faux chronograph! Did not want newbies reading this and getting confused. lol.
  10. hehe... yea... i actually forgot about the watch the diver was wearing... well spotted pug! here is the wallclock revealed... docblackrock: I love my tag as well!!! It has taken a lot of punishment over the years but still works like a dream... one time I was drunk and took the watch off my wrist and threw it to the concrete floor. Thanks everyone for the comments!!! Offshore: I don't have a headache this morning thank you! Only had beer last nite. Not sure about tonite though, will have some friends over for drinks while we watch the All Blacks game.
  11. i have tried for a long time... to this day i still can't tell.... sometimes when ppl post pics of reps for sale in shops...i go... WOW!!! nice gens.... sigh...
  12. actually... the 029 was actually more exp than a bottle of grange... just slightly though! come to think of it... the 029 actually cost more than my gen tag... but then that was a long time ago...
  13. ahhh... finally... a bite!!! there is actually another watch in there hidden behind the bottle of black label - my bad... i did not notice it was not in the photo... anyway...its my 15 year old gen midsize tag... can i consider it "vintage"? haha... but... if you look closely there is another panerai in the pic... EDIT: just wanted to add that is no normal HBB in the pic... it has got the special 31 jewel zenith movt!!
  14. I was bored... so I thought I would take a few photos. I have no photography skills at all and have much to learn! Anyway, here they are... photography tips welcome!!! here is my first go: OK.... lets play a game!!! What do you see in the second pic? Name them!
  15. I am no expert, but wouldn't the AP ROO secs at 12 actually be similar to moving the secs to 6 for the daytona? In the daytona they swap the positions of the 9 and 6 subdial, and move the 12 subdial to 3? So for the ROO they can swap the 9 and 12 around? I do not understand the main mechanics behind moving the subdials around so I may sound a bit naive... is it much more complicated than this?
  16. I felt the same way...but didn't really want to say anything...
  17. ahhh... Bud.... just like having sex in a canoe....
  18. So you AR'ed the outside of the crystal I assume? I had no idea that the cyclops had the reflection issue... Has anyone tried putting AR on the cyclops itself? Would this be possible? Now I am not sure if I should put AR on my 029 when i install the watchmen cyclops...
  19. Does anyone know the background behind the black magic hbb? I see that the bing bang makes a few models for the yachting teams... so is the black magic for the nz team? hence the name - black magic?
