Piberf, do you mean replace the strap? You certainly can. If you look at the picture via the link below (thanks to Matte) you will see the four small screws ,one by each lug, carefully remove these and rhen gently pull the lug wires out, these are bent onto an L and simply pull out of the strap. Pop them into you new strap,reinsert into the case and CAREFULLY replace the screws....Voila! http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?act=at...st&id=22894 ROb

I have the same model from PT and can confirm that the lever is a bit floppy,however if you pinch it tight with a pair of parallel jawed pliers it's fine. Rob

Hi, You need a strap that's compatible with a Breitling Super Avenger. Just my $.02 Rob

Guy, Back to your corners.............now! Did anyone notice she went to a lot of effort (bait & switch the paps with a sex doll!!!) to get David a very special Chopard, She may be a bimbo,but she shops in the right places Rob

Try your local Borders, they can order it in if they don't stock it!] Rob

The seller has opted for 'private' bidding so it's almost guaranteed to be a setup and you can't even tip off the highest bidder. And this system is meant to protect the buyer Rob

Hey, So when they create a Scottish Republican Army alll those American Scots romanticising over the 'Old Country' can subsidise their fight against the Evil British 'Overlords'!!! Be sensible, there is no way Scotland can become truly independent, unless we rebuild Hadrians wall????? Rob

About ten minutes after seeing that the number had been drawn I remembered to check my numbers! To my suprise I had tickets 81 to 90 and the 2nd prize winner is 84!!! I noticed that Epoch has announced this now so I'll have to decide what to go for, my wife prefers the Navitimer,but I prefer the Solo Tempe Ferrari, Suggestions??? Rob

Quality Control Dead on Arrival OK? Rob

Corgi, I'm ashamed of you! NO, It's not legal to sell reps in the UK, nor is it in France! Report it,simple as that! Rob

It doesn't normally take that long. does it appear on Parcelforces website? If so, what does it say, If it hasn't appeared on here it's likely lost in China, ask for a replacement. If its showing as in the UK then ring Parcelforce and 'chase' it using the UL tracking number PF gives you. This usually wakes them up, but last week my watch went via Nottingham as it went in the wrong van at the airport!! If it says it is with Customs in Coventry DON'T chase it, it may, or may not reappear! Rob

Working fine for me all day except for 10 minutes this evening!(UK) Rob

I think you meant ' Tracking never is accurate' Otherwise we'll end upwith another 'them and us' flameout!! Rob

Exactly!! Rob

I'm glad someone else saw the 2006, I thought I'd woken up a year younger this morning!! Rob

Tom, I will go and seek him out next week! I assume I will have to leave this with him, as it will take a while! Rob

Tom, I wish I could! Mine doesn't have screws,just soft as @*it 1.3 mm head hex bolts, As I said 1 head dropped off when putting it back in! It looks like need a watchsmith in London that will work on Reps and has a drill stand and a 1 or 1.2 mm screw extractor!! Failing that does anyone know where I can buy a 1 or 1.2 mm screw extractor? Rob

Thank you for this much needed levity in this rapidly decending into 'farce and stereotypes' post! I've always seen 'Uncle Bill' as an architypal Bond Villain, but you are right, he really could be 'Dr Evil' So does that make Steve Ballmer 'No. 2' ?? Rob

Do you honestly think so, I've travelled the States extensively and found many,especially at lower social levels to be more ignorant,ill informed and bigotted than anywhere else I've been (Even South Africa during apartheid). Many are hugely ignorant of World history, as a Brit I lost count of how many times I was told (with great delight) how someones granddad saved my [censored] in WW2. I meant my earlier comment about education, Jeez how can a Nuclear Power allow individual States to teach Creationism, doesn't that cause confusion in Chemistry,Biology & Physics if God created everything and Dinosaurs are all a crock o'****? , What hasppens if a kid moves half way through high school, doesn't that blow his/her mind?? Even Georgie though that Europe was a 'great country' until he got elected and had an advisor point to us on a map and explain that we've had Civilisation for over 2000 years, not just 200ish, remember we settled over there, not the oher way round :-) Almost done.... Your media needs to show more World events, and not just the bad ones, and make TV shows more accurate, you shoot someone they die, they don't go " it's just a flesh wound, I'll be fine" Kids REALLY do believe that ***t. Finally.....The US is nowhere near integrated, you just have slightly more diverse Ghettos and have created new ones by building all your 'Gated Communities' with their Mexican domestic staff (all illegal,but HEY, I can't afford an American gardener/pool cleaner, do you know how much they want to be paid!). You can sling anything you like at me, this isn't a 'We're better than you' post it's a 'wake up and stop defending the indefensible' post. Rob

Oh, like those sneaky ones in Iraq?? Seriously, don't you see how hypocritical your viewpoint is? To the rest of us it seems that the US wants to control everyone elses Nuclear Devices . Can you tell us why ? (in less than 1000 words, remembering it was called Mutually Assured Destruction for a reason :-) ) We've had our Empire and let it all go, we don't have the need to indulge in 'Gunboat' politics anymore. If those sailors recently held by Iran had been US Citizens can you imagine what would have happened, it would have been Stephen Coonts on steroids! But would Georgie boy have had to eat humble pie like Carter in 1980? Most likely, after all these big boys toys don't seem to work as well in the real world! Lets end it here, this is going nowhere Rob

I'm suprised, Is my statement not factually accurate? 1. The US has a major Oil need. 2. The only Country to use a Nuclear Dvice in Anger is the US! I have been responding to a member who is concerned about Iran having a Nuclear Capacity, I have been expressing my concerns regarding the US attitude towards anyone else having the same. Please tell me why this is simplistic, or are only Americans intelligent enough to discuss WMDs? Rob

I appreciate everything you're saying and I feel that we have succeded in calming down from a 'Dull Roar' and actually talking! I still can't agree on the Nuclear Issue, the US are worried about Irans intentions toward the US,whilst the whole world is worried about the US's intentions toward Iran. But, let's not bog this down with further talk of WMDs, lets move it back to smaller scale weaponry! Rob

I don't see Iran as the threat you do, but I'm not from a Country thats desperate for oil! Just remeber that only one Country has ever used Nuclear Force in anger! I am certainly not picking on anyone 'overpriviledged' I am well aware you are not a bunch of gun toting cowboys but many of you are still defending your historical right to bear arms 'because it says so' . It's like alcoholism, you must acknowledge you are powerless before firearms before you can discuss getting rid of them. I brought the IRA and WW2 up because many American don't understand exactly how the Brits feel about these subjects, We had years of being attacked in our own homes with US provided weapons. I hope this helps you understand the 'other view' slighrtly better. Rob

Um, Thats from the CIA fact book, it's not really accurate, I didn't say 'Multi Coloured', I said 'Multi Cultural'. There are twenty seven countries in the EU and they are all classed as 'White' but all have their own unique,distinct culture. Whos credibility? Rob

If only!! Religion, that's more controvertial than any other subject here, lets not go there!! Welfare, this is meant to ber temporary to assist the person until they get back on their feet. Unfortunately it breeds contempt, We have whole families that think its OK to go on the dole! You forgot Education, If we can ensure the next generation get a good,well rounded, education (i.e. not one where there aren't allowed to be taught about Evolution) then we are almost there. Will it happen.....Nah I worry for my son, I truly do. rob
