  1. Ditto.
  2. The Pam/Big Watch bloom definitely faded on my rose several years ago. Now, I prefer watches that viewers have to strain to see instead of those they cannot miss no matter how hard they try.
  3. I hate sad endings. Now I am going to be a all day.
  4. Going tri-compax today (Sunday)
  5. Yes &, being the 5th, this is not an April Fools joke. Unfortunately, I have no details other than the picture (which speaks for itself).
  6. Same as above.
  7. I wonder why it took so long to arrive, but it looks like a nice rep.
  8. Not cheap, but try Andy, Stan or ebay.
  9. You must not have received the memo - When airborne & roaming strange new worlds, the HEV on Seadwellers becomes a Chronulac-Infandibulum (combination space threader & parking meter hacking device).
  10. Well, you know your racing history & the world is safe - no Hurricanes at this end (Triumph or Armstrong). We did mostly old Jags & Triumphs with a couple of Lotus & MGs along the way.
  11. Thanks. This 1 is not driven much either. These days, it gets driven mainly to car shows.
  12. Brooklands Green with factory hardtop & electronic overdrive - a rare beast, indeed
  13. Brightight - I just spent several minutes trying to write yet another apology. But the more I read your comments, the more confident I feel that my original comment (& subsequent apology) was correct. You posted pics of a well-vintagized POS. I made a joke, which you did not appreciate. Noted. Done. Let us move on.
  14. Sorry, but I bailed on the SDDS some time ago (not my style) & do not have 1 on hand to check. My guess is that the 'valve' functions (moves), but I would not trust it to either function to gen specs or to be watertight.
  15. Think faded jeans, sneaks & a t & the Smurf works. Love that pic (& watch)
  16. Looks good, but I am not sure I see much of an improvement over other recent versions of this watch (which already look great).
  17. With all due respect, Bright, the point I was trying to make (by way of a joke) is that your watch has so many things wrong with it (&, by wrong, I mean inaccurate, low-end, damaged, cock-eyed, off-center..........the types of things I see on broken Canal Street watches that people bring in for repair & few of the things we normally see on any watch here)) that I saw nothing to be gained by itemizing its collective problems. And adding your brilliant vintagizing (which I have complemented you on elsewhere on the basis of a much better watch) is not going to turn this sow's ear into a silk purse. For better or worse, here, on RWG, I am used to seeing a much different (higher) level of rep. So, when you post a set of pics like these, it seemed to me that the only reasonable response (since I did not want to dump a litany of complaints & criticisms onto such a new member) was to post a light-hearted joke. And, again, I am sorry if the use of sarcasm offends you.
  18. The saucers came from the MBW/MBK galaxy
  19. What? Pasting the 2nd 3 over the 1 in '31'? Or did you photoshop something else?
