  1. Am I the only one here that's never seen a "rootbeer" RED Sub? And yet there it is, next to the bottom, next to the right.
  2. *snerk* 'Course you're kill kill KILLing me here. Here. Definitely here. Killing me. *twitch*
  3. Here's the only white dialed watch I could ever love... the unspeakably gorgeous Zodiac Seawolf.
  4. C'mon Doc, can't you be a little more specific? What month and year was it harvested? Who crushed the grapes? Okay, okay... I'll quit whining now.
  5. Good question... GS is a company that sells watch crystals. There's an incredible array of choices out there. If you can caliper the diameter and thickness, and get a rough idea of the cross section (lens? flat on the back?) then anyone with a good GS assortment can set you up. And they're surprisingly inexpensive. Some leads... http://www.gssupplies.com/catalog.html http://www.ofrei.com/page751.html http://stores.shop.ebay.com/Vintage-Watch-...l__W0QQ_armrsZ1 http://bestsource123.com/page873.html
  6. I had the exact same thing happen to a Seiko Orange Monster. It delaminated just like that. Of course I was standing on it at the time........ Forget trying to source a real domed Seiko replacement. Can't be done. But I bet you can push that crystal out with your thumbs (remove the movement first) and measure it up, and get a nice GS sapphire replacement for not too much $$$.
  7. With the stylin' blue shorts??? YEAH BABY!!!
  8. Hey C_M how come they're all holding hands? And..... is that ME in the middle of the bottom row?
  9. Did anyone see more than 7 COMEX in there??
  10. You were thinking, perhaps, of this one??
  11. Wow. Just ... wow. (Pics from TZ)
  12. ...when you're up in a skiplane looking for a good snowboarding spot, touch down on good hard, fast snow, and slide over the edge of the mountain............. ...................and wind up like this. They both walked away and it took only minor repairs to fix the plane.
  13. It's even in the headlines now!
  14. What I want to know is, when is Paul going to rep this?
  15. Everyone has heard The Four Seasons by Vivaldi a million times... it's a staple of every classical station. *yawn* been there, and done that. Got the t-shirt. *yawn* Until recently............ I found a recording of Le Quattro Stagioni by i Musici featuring Pina Carmirelli and she just ROCKS that piece. It's got a small, lyric, chamber sound, and her interpretation is over the top. Do yourself a favor and give it a whirl.
  16. Thanks! That's called a Beads of Rice bracelet, super hard to find. And it's really comfortable to wear! A wrist shot you say? Okay, here goes! Ohhhhhhhhh, you meant the CERTINA. Ah, I get it......
  17. Lani, there's a 300T Sharkie up right now.....
  18. The ever-delectable Ms. Nanuq fell in love with my Doxa Black Lung, but it was a little too big for her. So a little hunting around came up with a nice supplement; I found a Certina DS2 for her, brand new in-the-box, 30+ years old. The little beastie is one heck of a fine watch!
  19. Happy birthday to the old cuss!
  20. The snow is melting and the sun is out, it's above freezing and it's finally time to take some real pictures of the Sharkie I picked up last winter. This is a Sub 300, without the "T" designation. It's the very first series, the tell-tale is that the inner ring of numbers on the bezel are colored and the outer ring are black; later series Sharkies have those colors reversed. Cool factoid: the numbers on the bezel represent the U.S. Navy Dive Table limits for no-decompression air dives, time vs. depth. Enjoy!
  21. My friend Mike and I raced his 54' sloop, double-handing that beast through the winter and spring series here in Resurrection Bay (by Seward). Cold sailing? Baby you ain't seen cold.
  22. Triplok screw down. That's what made it an unpopular model when released, since it's not an auto movement.
  23. Eccentric you say? I'd wear the DRSD over to my Dad's house and give it to him. He deserves it.
