  1. Taken today... This one would've been put to sleep - he got lucky, we took him in when he was 6 days old (along with his sister). Now they are both 4 weeks old. And, as you can tell, he already has discriminating tastes in watches.
  2. Getting ready for the weekend. Maybe, for once, I will allow myself a little time to unwind...
  3. Never worked for me. And if it ever was to have worked, then I would've been not too happy about the QC of the given watch. Mmmm. I am an advocate of tight, well-lubed seals. Being primarily an OEM vintage watch collector, the term "breach" is horrifying. And yes, I get the gaskets changed every 365 days on my Seiko SKX dive watches (200m pressure test for minimum 3 minutes, too).
  4. Fine libations and fine wristwatches go "hand in hand". Nice pics. I'll be over around 9PM
  5. Thanks tmg, Always nice to hear from you. Best regards
  6. Last I heard from PT (yesterday) is that the factory has "not released" them to him yet. In otherwords, the watch is not yet ready for sale. Supposedly it will be "available soon", but "not sure when". The wait continues... I am sure it will be sooner than later. It's never easy waiting in line for a new item.
  7. Nice choices; true gentlemen. Cheers
  8. Great idea for a topic! Pics coming soon... For now, here's a couple pics of our resident monsters:
  9. Uhhh, that would be the lovely TR-6.
  10. This is my daily equipment that I carry with me. I have been carrying the same basic type of stuff since I was 16 years old. Car keys Wallet Leica C-Lux 2 (always at least 1 camera) iPhone Dad's dogtags from Vietnam Sunglasses Watch Bracelet
  11. Nice combo. The white dial and blued hands are strikingly elegant.
  12. If you are embarking on a Breitling collection, I had better pick up a vintage Co-Pilot and AOPA-dialed Nav before you raise the prices. Once again, nice whorde of watches! Cheers
  13. Wow, the mighty E24 is a classic. Def. one of my favorites. And the M6 is a true beast. One day I would like to own one. Along with a 3.0CS
  14. Great pics! Polarizers do make a difference. So does the cost/quality of your glass for professional applications. Otherwise, who cares. Makes no real difference if you're not shooting pro stuff in RAW. For me, I only use the Hoya Super-HMC circular polarizer multi-coated Pro 1 Extra Thin version for my EOS "L" lenses. They have to be thin in order to not vignette/distort on the edges. They ain't cheap, but neither are the lenses.
  15. Can't wait for some news. Just emailed PT for some info.
  16. Dope watch. Makes me wanna buy one> Enjoy.
  17. Very nice collection. I am glad to be a member of the Genta club as well
  18. From the bottom of my heart I'd like to tell you all: Thank you for your gentle, moving words and kindness. Through the tears, you have made me smile Respectfully yours, Euno
  19. Hi Rek! I still have the E32 750iL. But she is sadly going to be retiring soon due to heater core problems. She had a good run though; and she still drives albeit a bit too hot since the cooling system has reached the end of its life. I might dump more money into her though. It would be a shame to get rid of it. I recently picked up this E31 840Ci because I came across an offer I could not refuse. I had been searching for a 1 owner low mileage example in mint condition. After waiting for many years, I finally found thee one. 58k, all service papers, pristine mint condition. Everything is like new on this baby. There were only about 7000 V8 examples made, and I was looking for an E31 that could be my daily driver. I found it! Why the V8 instead of the V12? Well it's simple. The V8 is easy to maintain. The V12 is like having two cranky V6 engines to look after. And the performance difference is essentially nil. Don't get me wrong, the V12 M70 engine is bulletproof, it's just a little costly to keep out on the road. Anyhow, I will be installing staggered 18" x 8 and 18" x 9.5 M-Parallel rims with Pirelli Nero tires soon. And I will slap on a gentle 3M ceramic tint to the windows, and add some angled Flowmaster exhaust tips. The most important issue though comes first: I need to replace the lower oil pan gasket (leaking and should've been changed at 50k). I already have the gasket, and I will install it this weekend. Other than that, this car is like new. And it is dedicated to my father, who never got a chance to see it (but he asked me everyday about it). He's lucky though, he still gets to ride in it when I pick up his ashes tomorrow and deliver them to my mother's house Just me & my Pop & a whole lotta open lanes!! Cheers PS. I love the car & watch combo pics! Nice rides, gentlemen! Like I mentioned earlier, I will take better pics when time permits.
  20. Quick & dirty pics taken with the iPhone's crappy as hell camera. Not to mention that the pics themselves are pretty bad composition-wise, too (nice garage full of garbage! Hahaa!). But, they are a reminder to me that I need to bust out the Canon DSLR or Leicas to take proper pics of this winning combo. Stay tuned, but for now, here are some examples... Please note that I did swap out the head unit to OEM CD43, so these pics are not ultra-recent! IWC 3717 + BMW E31 840Ci = Perfect & Unusual Match (unlike boring McDonald's Combo Meal Rolex Submariner + BMW 3-Series E46) 3717 & E31 were made for speed!! 3717 fits perfectly in the E31 cockpit! I'll have to update my signature pics, this E31 is my new baby
  21. Hi PT, I hope I'm No2 on the list If you need my contact info again, please send me a PM here and I will email you. I can't wait to see the watch in person!! Best regards, Eunomians
  22. I prepaid, but have not heard any release date news at all. Anybody know or heard anything?
