  1. I would stick with the 236, I am not keen on the numerals on the 196, the more simple dial is my preference
  2. Can you feel the rotor spin inside the case? It could be a simple fix, where you just need to reattach the auto winding rotor to the movement. There is a little tiny screw that holds the rotor bearing in to place
  3. I get what you mean, you are wearing the watch each day and it still runs down and stops, which it shouldn't do. It should run down and stop on a full charge after 36 to 42 hours, after being set down and not worn...... There is something wrong with your watch, sorry
  4. Is a little lateral thinking too much to ask nowadays?
  5. Yes, all the wording has changed! Mine now says: 28-10-2010 11:19 International Hub Forwarded for UK processing 24-10-2010 18:54 International Hub Awaiting Customs clearance 24-10-2010 18:53 International Hub Received in destination country 20-10-2010 23:53 Delivery Agent - GUANGZHOU - PTT Forwarded for export 20-10-2010 13:06 Delivery Agent - CHINA Collected from customer I think it makes more sense now, my delivery should be here tomorrow!
  6. The crystal from my GMTc II looks like B, same case set, pretty sure they all look like B
  7. That was my first thought too, maybe they want to reduce incoming calls, so they changed the "drama" of their one liners
  8. Strange, my "AWAITING CUSTOMS CHARGING" message has changed to "Awaiting Customs clearance", not a new message, the same date and time information as before......... Never seen that before, been in customs four days, the message changed today, hurry up already!
  9. How do you shut down a decentralised, non server based P2P client?
  10. Have you even searched? Or did you spend more time flooding the shout box and posting comments on my profile? http://www.rwgforum.com/index.php?app=core&module=search&search_in=core Not a great start to your forum activity really....
  11. Hehe, yeah, Portsmouth is a good 60-70 miles away from London! FineDD is trying a few things out to get a Brietling style AR, he said he'd get back in touch when he has news
  12. FineDD's crystals go to the same place as Domi's? Ah OK, I see now, I will ask and see what FineDD says
  13. Thanks, replied! His AR was fantastic, but damn, he had a couple of my watches when he disappeared, but by now I forget what they even were! I will see if FineDD can help
  14. Hi Pete, thanks for the info Sorry, but who is FineDD, and TB? Do you have a forum link? I don't use repgeeks though When Taka coated the crystal I asked for blue, Breitling style, but it came out green. After a long email chat he offered to recoat the crystal, but he couldn't guarantee it would be blue, so I didn't bother.... Pretty sure no ultimate crystal will fit the old school ti Chrono Avenger Cheers!
  15. I have a Breitling ti chrono Avenger that really needs a new AR coat I had Domi coat it, but it was a yellow/gold colour. very effective, but not accurate. So I has Taka AR coat it, but it came out green, again, effective, but not what I was looking for Is there an EU coating service that can remove the crystal (from an empty watch case) and coat with a blue/purple AR coating, similar to Breitling and then refit the crystal? I could post worldwide I suppose, I would just send the case alone.... Domi gold AR: Taka green AR: Any ideas? Cheers!
  16. Punctuation might help make peeps want to read your post!
  17. Why not just torrent a copy of Nero? The included Vision Express software is drag and drop and so easy to use. Who cares about covers? Just buy a CD writing pen, no more than a few $$.....
  18. You need to google how to use torrent files
  19. Not sure what the best bet is dealer wise for that part of the world, sorry, but you don't want the V1, you want the "hublot factory" version, there must be quite a few different "versions" out there..... http://www.puretimewatch.com/product/super-ocean-heritage-chronograph-black-v3-or-rubber/ Says V3 in the advert, but note the "perfect" lume, only the "hublot factory" version is like that, all other versions are no way near as neat. The rubber strap is very nice too, great first rep choice. Just remember not to cut too much off the rubber strap when sizing for your wrist
  20. Ask your dealer for the "Hublot factoy" made Breitling Super Ocean Heritage Chronograph, on the rubber Ocean Racer strap, it is one of the best reps made, better than the non chrono version too Can't help you with a dealer recommendation, because you don't say where you are from, I don't buy boxes either, never seen the point.... Welcome to the forums, the search function is your friend
  21. Thanks again, a very nice, clear explanation and pictures
  22. Splendid write up, a very informative read, thanks for taking the time Interesting point hackR, it makes me wonder too. Given that the ETA disc is smaller than the A7753, would it be possible to flatten the Asian/ETA discs out a little and to then use them together, with the ETA disc functioning as an overlay, glued on top of the Asian disc?
  23. Just received SPAM PM's from "mylove" http://www.rwgforum.com/user/30857-mylove/ PM = "Gift5kassala@yahoo.co.uk My name is Miss Gift.

  24. It would be interesting to see the two date wheels swapped over, to see if they fit and align with the respective dials
