  1. Welcome! Enjoy your time here, your amongst a fantasti bunch of people
  2. Trusty sells the same watch with apparently an ETA 2836-2 movement, so there is a good chance it'll fit the case, although for the price I doubt I would worry too much about changing the Asian 2813.
  3. I'd just like to add that the site seems to be offering gen watches and rlx cases etc. I just don't know if it's legit!
  4. That B-17 is absolutely beautiful! What a sight to behold
  5. That was one of the most vicious attacks on a human being that I have had the displeasure to witness. This man is a Christian Minister? Shameful. He should remind himself of this " Let he who is without sin cast the first stone" Both horrifying and sickening to watch.
  6. I came across this site www.monster-time.com I am not sure what to make of it, the prices look good and everything seems above board, and of course the prices are in Singapore Dollars Does anyone have any experience of this site? Thank you Gentlemen for your input
  7. Josh currently has a $108 explorer with free shipping. I'm keen to build a franken of one of these watches ( Thank you once again Ubi for your help! ) But i'd like to get a "feel" for the watch first, i'm not expecting uPO standards, but do any of you guys think this is worth it for a look? I also have a spare ETA 2836 movement which I know won't fit my franken when it's built so I was also wondering if that would fit in place of the Asia 2813, although I wouldn't bother unless the movement died All opinions are most welcome!
  8. The Ulysse Nardin, Oris, Jaeger le Coultre and IWC brochures arrived for me! I've got to say, the IWC is especially nice!
  9. That's a beautiful IWC, i'd definitely buy one if it was repped!
  10. now that is one beautiful watch!
  11. Lord Rasta, rest assured that the kindness you, Andy and Stephane and i'm sure many many others have shown shall be passed on to others

    Kit List

    An emergency bivvy bag, here's one on ebay mate, 310084383871 that's the ebay number for you to have a look. They can be a real lifesaver, cheap, emergency shelter, even for storing kit and they usually have printed survival instructions on them too
  13. I'm so sorry to hear of your loss Ken. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family mate.....Paul.
  14. Less than an hour ago I posted that my Ingy bracelet had broken at the weld, right away FXRAndy offered to send me the part for free! No charge whatsoever, I pm'ed him my address and asked before posting of his kindness and generosity, He asked me to mention the kindness of others, lord Rasta and Stephane in particular. Once again Andy thank you for your kindness and generosity, it is sincerely appreciated and you can be sure that I shall pass on the good will given to me to others! Thanks for reading gentlemen! Paul.
  15. My Ingy bracelet has broken at the micro weld, the usual spot lol. Does anyone have any idea how to fix?
  16. :lol: Definitely one of the finest comedies ever made!
  17. If your chosen collector guarantees, and is happy that you have it verified that the movement is Swiss ETA (2824-2) Then the only visual mods are Chief's/K2222's A/R coating, a lume job and the symbol replaced with the correct one ( which silix carries). This of course still leaves you having to have your uPO serviced ( absolutely necessary in my humble opinion) Hope this has been of some help
  18. As has been pointed out in a previous thread, the amount of different watches that could be produced FROM ONE SINGLE GOOD SMP case design would earn money for a factory/dealer which in my opinion would equal or even better the profits gleaned from WM9 or MBK Sub due to the varying Omega models which would fit such a case. All we need is the correct case! Build it, and they will come!
  19. Is there any news about a new SMP case being made? Considering the revenue a CORRECT case could bring to a factory, surely one of them must be considering. All opinions welcome!
  20. Thank you for the link, it's been duly bookmarked for reference and drooling!
  21. Send him a pm to see if he has a replacement, might even give it to you cheaply seeing as he sold the watch to you!
  22. Would it fit the case without mods Takashi? Thank you and all others for your replies gentlemen!
