  1. The luggage that you don't take with you in the cabin is called checked luggage. You're saying it's better to stow the watches on my carry-on/hand luggage, correct? I'm just trying to be 100% sure.
  2. Do you mean my carry-on luggage? Why not? Should I stuff them in socks or something on my stowed luggage?
  3. WSO should've been kicked off of eBay long ago. Order and get your finger on the PayPal dispute button!
  4. I thought that's what the Panerai section was for!
  5. It's about 5 years old. I got it from Silix. I may sell it, but without the Swiss 7750 in it.
  6. Do you guys prefer black or white date wheel? I have both, but I think the white looks better. I had a gen black dial in it with the rep movement. I swapped out the A7750 for the Swiss 7750 and stuck with the rep dial. It's funky!
  7. I have one. I've had it for about 5 years now. It's great. The leather is just starting to get soft. Burberry accessories are made in China. You're paying for the name.
  8. Yes, you are wasting your money instead of investing in Cape Cod Polish.
  9. What exactly is modded on your watch that would justify a $615 price tag? I think the standard rep AR looks great.
  10. I think we should all wait until Mike chimes in. I know he was going through a very difficult chapter in his life.
  11. It took about 30mins at 400°C in the oven to get the effect. I kept on checking it all the time. YMMV!
  12. Thanks, Woof! Your's is awesome too!
  13. I made it. The rubber strap was on a deployant that I simply replaced with a Tudor clasp. I agree. It's on a Oyster bracelet now. Your standard 2824 at 28,800bph.
  14. Here's a combo you don't see everyday.
  15. I managed to find some yellow ( ) hands. I think white ones with the same baking treatment as applied to the dial would be much better. I also added a spray of Tremclad clear coat to the dial to give it some texture. I wish somebody made a proper 9401 case. I'm currently using the Josh/PC 5513 case.
  16. I'm banned from buying from WSO. He sent me a lot of crap and incorrect parts on the last order and refused to accept a return. I had to get PP involved with a dispute. He's a douchebag, no? Does anybody else in North America sell white lume Tudor Snowflake hands? All you have to do is go to Yuki's site and compare.
  17. I got my Yuki 9401 dial a few weeks ago and considered to send it back since it was such a light blue colour. I was hoping that the dial was a little darker (French Militaire blue) so that it would match my Classic Watch Parts bezel. I decided to bake the dial at 400°C and this is the result I got: I'm really pleased with it. Not only did baking make the dial appear darker and duller it also bubbled up the lume and made it appeared aged. I think it looks great! All I need now are hands. The Yuki hands are way too long.
  18. You guys are actually thinking of sticking gen Rolex movement parts on a Chinese knock-off? Frankening a case is one thing, but a movement? Who drank the Kool-Aide?
  19. The Chinese holiday coming up will delay all parcels until about mid-October. Was wondering if somebody wanted to part with their's? Looking for a Carrera Chronograph "Racing" Date (red hands) or Day/Date, both with black dials.
  20. I found out about this last night from a dealer. The only dealer to give me an honest answer. Thank you Michelle at Silix!
  21. It's now been 3 days since I approved of the QC pics and I have no confirmation that my package has been sent out, no EMS tracking number, nothing. After 2 unanswered emails to the trusted dealer, I'm a bit worried now.
  22. I'm still waiting for an email reply with EMS tracking number from my seller. I'll give him till tomorrow. After that...well...
