  1. Try tying a loop of dental floss under the bezel. It cured the loose bezel on my Chrono Avenger. I expected it to look like a birds nest after a week but it is still working well sevral months later.
  2. I REALLY like that green insert - do you know if one for a 45mm PO is available anywhere?
  3. Just recieved this and I am blown away by how it looks and feels.
  4. Hi Oztag This seems to be a common weakness. I had exactly the same happen to me and I know others have to. In the end I gave up and bought a box of mixed watch screws from Ebay, it will only cost you a few $'s and more than likely your going to find another falls of another rep in the future. Whilst your on the bay, I also suggest a box of mixed bracelet pins could be useful. It goes without saying, check the other screws and check any new reps the moment you get them...quality control is mostly 2 letters used in adverts rather than anything meaningful, so don't count on it.
  5. I agree with By-Tor...insane price! I purchased an Aquaracer just a few weeks ago from Precious Time who is UK based http://www.ptswiss88.com/ I was very happy with the service and price.
  6. Aha found some for only $8 http://stores.shop.ebay.com.my/kurtyiu__W0QQ_armrsZ1 But not for a 45mm
  7. Have never seen a PO with a green insert (sheltered life or ignorant Noob?) but I like it very much. This must be Dantes Watch Forum Which watch? Then which watch on which strap/bracelet? Then which watch on which strap/bracelet with which insert? Then which watch on which strap/bracelet with which insert on which day? Then which watch on which strap/bracelet with which insert on which day with which shirt?
  8. Ditto to everything said above...I have a Tag Link waiting if your experience is good...
  9. Now 'enjoying' the British weather - Bike Mikes re-homed Ti Avenger. Great trade from a stand up guy
  10. Nice shots - well done! I cringe every time I post a pic here, especially if it is near a masterclass offering! BUT It is encouraging to see that by following some of the great advice available here and plenty of perserverance, photos that do our watches justice can be had. I agree, the clouds are a nice touch and the tree refelected in the bezel.
  11. Arrived today, one of Reg's well known 'value' 45mm PO's My first purchase from Narikka was easy and quick with very good communications. So it doesn't stand scrutiny of course but at
  12. Damn...ANOTHER I HAVE to add to my want list...will this torment never end? I wanted to like the Mille Miglia but it never clicked with me, but this one does... Thanks Silverspeed....wear it well
  13. I have a Panda on order from PT but it's this one I REALLY wish they would rep! What are the chances of being able to get a gen dial..anyone? If I get on with the rep then I think I'll HAVE to buy this as a Gen
  14. Nice article interesting to read..thanks I never saw the appeal of these watches but I'm becoming 'Pam curious'. "[Panerai], it's perfect for people who are over 45 years old" adding a reference to the ease of reading large-format watches." Maybe we need a prescription crystal service! Any optometrist on the board
  15. Looking at mine I can see what you mean, but if you refer to HackR's photo's, you can see the difference in surface finish - more polished on the ring, more matt on the dial. I think it's just the differnce between reflected and scattered light.
  16. Are you married? Been married a while? .......... Maybe you're having an affair with your rep
  17. You've had all the good advice, so how about grinding down the screwdriver and punch and having another go at re-sizing the other end of the bracelet? this time try cutlery....and keep your camera handy The pins are a bugger to shift...I watched a jeweller get red faced with mine. I recommend buying a box of mixed pins from Ebay for a few £'s for future operations and a box of mixed screws whilst your at it. Thanks for sharing your intimate moment with your watch..it was a laugh

    I think most people want to believe in conspiracy theories, as it at least proves there are intelligent people in control even if they are not being very nice about it! The alternative is even more terrifying....sh*t just happens and when it does, we'll turn to our leaders for salvation but they will be sh*tting themselves too
  19. I have bought before via credit card so I logged in and.....Your are quite right..no CC option! But like the man says...trusted dealer
  20. Almost... Demand regulates Supply yields Profit promulgates Market yields Competition realises Ambition raises debt. Everyone drives owes enough for a Porsche.
  21. I have to agree... The watch, even accidentally, defined a momentous achievement in human history. It is visible in so many photos. It does deserve spcial attention.
  22. They didn't mention that it is the 2nd bigest inhabited building in the world after the Pentagon. There is as much below ground as there is above. But you're bang on with your analysis...he was a nut job
  23. As winter draws on in middle England (...the rain gets a bit colder!) Nothing nicer than a log fire, a soothing malt... and a cigar...
