  1. The one I picked up (Got mine a bit cheaper from a different seller though) http://cgi.ebay.com.au/New-Samsung-D880-DU...A1%7C240%3A1318 As a general rule you need to find them overseas - China etc due to them being able to use 2 networks simultaneously, most carriers don't want to stock that type of phone.
  2. Gives the ability to have 2 different sim cards in the phone at the same time, hence having 2 different numbers using the same phone rather than having to carry 2 phones for those of us that have 2 numbers - I got a samsung duo a few months ago because I was buying a new business that had existing customers calling the old number, but have my own number too. So rather than carrying 2 phones, got the one that takes 2 sims, and by now hopefully all the old people are using my new number... plus it gives the ability to use 2 different networks. There are issues, such as if you are on a call on one line it will go to voicemail on the other, and with my phone at least if you want to change the primary sim you need to reboot the phone, but they are a good idea in the right situation. Of course, I could have always used call diversion instead...
  3. I hear there is viagra if you have that problem now
  4. Me like. Me like lots
  5. Have just seen the QOS PO at the local AD, it was in the display window. Must say the lighting didn't flatter the watch any, it looked like the crystal could use a good AR job. Was very hard to see the etching of QOS on the dial. And for some reason it just looked bigger than the regular version. But having now seen it in person, it was a bit disappointing to be honest, not as good as I had hoped. Oh well, can't like 'em all.
  6. Best idea when you see those ones is to steer clear, the subdials like that are for the day of the week - only done on the cheaper reps that use a cheap movement, not done in the gen.
  7. They never sent me a watch, but then I never sent them any money. No big deal either And to think, when I saw the title xxxwatches I thought it was another girls, girls girls thread with the pictures on the watches. Oh well, time to keep searching.
  8. Love the texture on the 028 dial, great work on both.
  9. No papers, gotta be a fake
  10. Thanks for the time and effort guys, it is this sort of thing that keeps me here with the reps!
  11. Good to see yet another Aussie here, and even better news to hear that you are an accountant - might need some 'creativity' next tax season...
  12. If it isn't raing this weekend I might get some 'winter' shots down at the beach. Doubt there will be any snow...
  13. By selling 800 watches over there in the last year - so far 30 people have already recieved theirs!
  14. Not nearly as nice as what their website makes it look.
  15. So good thing you had not been drinking then, you might have woken in the morning feeling like you did something bad last night, then finding it strapped to your wrist But I must say, I like the dial on this one - as has been mentioned, swap the crystal out for a regular one, and it is a pretty nice limited edition PO. What would actually be even better I must say is that there is no gun on the seconds hand, so swap the crystal out and you don't have anything to show that it is a Bond edition watch, unlike the previous ones that do have a 007 on the seconds hand.
  16. Looks good, especially for the price, but the engraving on the back - 100m/1000f? Doesn't sound quite right.
  17. Will we be getting a visit in the girls, girls girls thread?
  18. D4M (I think) posted over at RWI about the movement in V2 being suspect, there seem to have been a lot of issues with it. Whether it is a case of a bad batch of movements I don't know, although I think someone mentioned they thought the caseback was too tight against the movement. In any event I don't have one to know anything firsthand. This one looks pretty nice, but I would also say it is too pricey for me right now, especially with the exchange rate as it is, again like so many others around.
  19. I too would echo this sentiment - go with the best to start with, or the cheapo to get a feel of it, and if you do, you will end up getting the DSN one in the end anyway. Whether to go with the g or h series - the G has the decorated bridges on the movement but the H does not. DSN straps tend to be better than the regular rep ones, but you will still want a new one pretty fast.
  20. Nice, they look good. If only I golfed these days...
  21. No worries, I get mistaken for Clive all the time Not really.
  22. This comes from someone who has not really used a mac in a good 7 years, when I was at high school all they ran were apples, and I never really liked them then (early 90's) Had to use both Macs and PC's for courses at university, and as much as I wanted to try to like them, still couldn't. They may technically be better than the PC's, but from all the using them over the years I am going to have to stick to the PC's.
  23. No, not Clive, never even hung out at RWG1.
  24. So when do we pay the next round of money and they arrive?
  25. Just watched the movie for the first time about a week ago and thought, hey, it's Shundi!
