bad taste

i rarely post but i felt i really needed to share this.
I work in the city and work rather long hours. The profession i practice requires discipline and commitment but every now and again I just have to get out of the office and move around a bit, or head up to the few foodstores to grab a packet of biscuits or anything else which can satisfy that fit of nerves which takes over every now and again.
So picture this. Today i decided to take a different route to a little store up behind my office block and therefore took the side street instead of the main road. As Im walking i notice this construstion waste dumpster in the alley full to the brim, however, it doesnt have a speck of dust in it. Instead it is full, and I mean FULL, F-U-L-L of luxury watches catalogues and memorabilia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I swear guys, i felt like i had won the national lottery. i could not believe my eyes!!!!!
i even found a box to carry some of the stuff out to bring right back home!!!! Ha!!!!
I've got everything from beautiful Vacheron, Cartier, Jaeger, AP and Omega catalogues with CDs to Zenith framed posters, display cases and more.... I'm telling you, it felt so good i even felt like i was stealing the stuff!!!!
Anyways, gotta go guys, I'm going back for more!!!!

I know this has been brought up before but i need some mods done to some watches by someone in EU as customs issues have become a real headache beyond EU borders.
I know we had some established members here on the board but would like to know if there are any new ones and also if those we had still offer such services.
Please contact asap if anyone can help.
Thanks in advance and best to all

Hello friends,
I was wondering if someone has or someone knows where I can get an appropriate case back sticker for my 16610 from?
All I found (not only on ebay) does not really look like the genuine thing.
This is one thing ive found for example, but the 16610-Letters should be in black and not holograhic:
So can anyone help me?
hey, yes i've got a couple available...
ill try to post a pic over the weekend

@ rag9fx
yes, the marker came off whe i once dropped the watch. dammit!!!
but it doesnt matter as i want to change the dial anyway...
@ ubi

thanks for your comments guys
keep em coming

Ok guys,
here's what i'm really looking forward to recently...
Its taken an incredible effort to source the genuine parts but finally i have managed to get a contact for practically any gen rollie part that exists ... they are not cheap, but hey, at least i can get them!!! haha
So, here's the breakdown:
The Parts that will be used:
TW Case
TW saphire crystal
Genuine Swiss ETA movement
Genuine Rollie Parts:
insert
triplock crown
crown tube
insert complete with pearl
springbars
Tudor hands set
Other parts:
CN Dial
CN closed 6s and 9s date overlay
CN bracelet
Mods:
Full modding is planned including relume, CGs reshaping, polishing, bezel setting, water profing etc...
Now, I'm left handed, so i've decided that this would look really cool if i can find someone to revolve the dial around to turn it into a 'destro'. Not sure this is possible but I think that would be really cool and original!!!
Final result would be a replica of an approximate year 2000 submariner date, complete with genuine box, papers etc.
Waiting for your thoughts guys.
P.s. if any modders would like to take on this project pls note i am in the EU and will welcome your proposals.
Thanks in advance

The Inge Chrongraph looks very high-tech with its black, angular style in stainless steel... To put in on a soft chocolate leather strap is like Darth Vader should have worn light brown cowboy boots or fur slippers...
so true

Hei guys
anhelp for me. I wish to acquire a PP Nautilus.
I have found two versions. They are different, see for example the hands.
Which is in your experience and opinion the faithful and more detailed in your opinion?
Thanks.
