  1. Hadn't seen the clasp till now, looks stunning bit of engineering :notworthy: but you have to ask the question...why?

    Hope it works out to be a great addition but from experience in the automotive industry it's usually best to Kiss ;) it usually works best that way!

    I'm well up for the rep TC version though :clap2:

  2. I have always looked at selling stuff over the net like this, you can only sell and take payments for those items that you sell if you have faith in people to do the right thing....most of the time!

    Honest people are the majority of your buyers and tbh if someone wants to try to scam you....they will :wounded1: in saying that I have used Paypal to get my money back from a seller a couple of times this year too but only when the product was either broken or just nothing like what I bought, it's a two way street, my last was for a $300 phone that I bought in full working order and lightly used to find it worked when it wanted too and had been abused by the previous owner.....I did however have to send the phone back to get my refund as I had done before that too (cost me extra $60 in post fees!).

    I know a couple of us have had problems lately but the door swings both ways in all this and Paypal should enforce the return of any goods before a refund is given to the buyer....it's fair that way for both parties ;)

    Scammers get there just rewards eventually mate :bangin:

  3. I hear ya guys, first I have known about it too ;)

    I have always given the option, because of the saving by paying as gift I didn't know it could turn this sour, to be fair i won't be offering this option again either, like most of us I think, I see Paypal as the best option for payment as most people have an account and it gives some recourse if there is a problem for both parties, as soon as you mix people with money issues always follow :fool: the situation F finds himself in is the shits,as a great member and seller on this forum it sucks to see it happen to him, what about us all doing something to help, not sure what but any ideas are better than doing nothing at all?

  4. I've been on the forum for nearly a year now and I thought it was about time I did my first watch review! I haven't seen a review on this piece as yet so here goes, be gentle with me....... :inverted:

    So about 6 months ago I was looking in the sales section and saw one of the Ocean 1's for sale and liked the look of it, had a quick search on the net and picked out the Ocean Vintage Gmt as one to add to the wish list. At the time I had a few watches on order so didn't get it straightaway and whenever I checked back on their website it was on back order :fool:

    So couple weeks ago I checked again and it was available so ordered it and it came last week ;) lol it's amazing how quickly grown men become small children again when we are confronted by a package containing a new piece!

    I'm really impressed with the quality of the watch, the bracelet is really comfy to wear not to heavy and has a decent double clasp, fit and finish is excellent and the Lume glows like a torch, for the price of a decent rep it feels really well engineered has a great movement and I hope will last me a few years too!

    Some pics for you....
