Awesome Ken, I was going to say I don't want a refund, I want my ring dag-nabit, and there it is!

I never got a PM

Pretty sure is is still manual wind? And only black face. Pretty much the same watch as the 8 day but with 10 day reserve?

Pleased to see I am not the only one who watched Profit - it may be 10 years old by now probably, but an awesome show.

I think chieftang has put forward most of what I would have said on the matter also. On the surface without much background analysis it sounds like a plan, and one that sounds like a lot of thinking has gone into it, but not on the opposite side of the debate so to speak.

Although I have a few more posts than you do, I would be in a similar situation. I like to read, read and read, but rarely have much to actually contribute - although I doubt in the last 12 months there has been more than 3 days in a row I have not logged in. Bet there are a lot of us.

Looks very artistic. Congrats on yet another great pic!

There are topics from time to time of people asking how long shipping should take on the new watch ordered from China, or even member trades. And in most cases international delivery seems to arrive within 10 days (dependant on shipping method). Just thought I would make a mention here of local delivery. On Monday evening I won an auction on ebay for a watch winder, and the store is located in Australia, but local pickup is not possible. Standard $15 for delivery. fair enough, given the weight. Paid for Tuesday. Once paid, I discover the warehouse is only one suburb away from me, about 3km. But since pickup was apparently not an option, I didn't try for it; and as it is so close I figured it would arrive quickly. Well, according to the tracking it arrived Wendesday morning at the auspost dispach area, and was ready for dispach Wednesday evening. It is now Saturday, and still it is waiting to be dispached! 3km up the road. So next time you are sitting waiting on an international package, just remember it could take less time to get 3,000km to you than 3km.

You need a PVD bracelet and some black diamonds on that one!

Anybody have any thoughts on this watchbox? http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Luxury-8-Watch-Stor...A1%7C240%3A1318 I am looking for one, finally, and at this stage only need space for 7 watches anyway, so 8 would be enough, and this one is local so postage costs wouldn't be as bad as if it was being shipped from overseas - also with the Aussie dollar being so bad right now, anything priced in other currencies is going to cost anyway. So, thoughts on this one?

It was a good topic to bump, maybe there should be more of it happening with some good old posts

I guess after all that nobody can figure out what he is wearing? No wonder I couldn't figure it out myself if the collective wisdom here is stumped! I will have to watch some more episodes to try and figure it out...

Sheens watch was discussed in this thread http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=67507 think it was decided that it is a yachty. I have only recently started getting into the show, but now I have been watching it, am really enjoying it.

Congrats on both the watch and the milestone!

I think most people here know that Charlie Sheen is wearing a yachtmaster on the show 2 and a half men, as that has been discussed before, but I have not got a good enough look at Alans watch - but from the shots I see, my guess would be a Pam. Anyone know for sure?

It all sounds good so far, although quite ambitious for a calendar - almost more of a book already with how much you have thought of so far. Not sure I am going to be able to help much with the supplying of information or pics, and there are likely to be people around who have a better grasp on the printing side of things too, but I will definately be in for the final product.

The best time to buy is when everyone else is selling

So who is off to see him live?

TO THE OVER 30 CROWD... When I was a kid, adults used to bore me to tears with their tedious diatribes about how hard things were. When they were growing up, what with walking twenty-five miles to school every morning... uphill... barefoot... BOTH ways... in pouring rain... yadda, yadda blah, blah, blah... I remember promising myself that when I grew up, There was no way in hell I was going to lay a bunch of crap like that on kids about how hard I had it and how easy they've got it! But now that I'm over the ripe old age of thirty I can't help but look around and notice the youth of today. You've got it so easy! I mean, compared to my childhood, you live in a damn Utopia! And I hate to say it but you kids today you don't know how good you've got it! I mean, when I was a kid we didn't have The Internet. If we wanted to know something, we had to go to the damn library and Look it up ourselves, in the card catalogue!! There was no email!! We had to actually write somebody a letter, with a pen! Pen Pals

Like Chuck Norris, TT doesn't go to the sun, it goes to him. And come down to Australia sometime too, we do summer when it is winter up in the USA.

Compatability mode isn't necessarily required, just need to get it really drunk

Thought it a bit strange you were only 1 year old.... maybe you just don't age

I have one of the phantoms, is a very nice watch. The only problem I would caution you on is the black lume doesn't last too long. But otherwise it is great.

Here is the thread from breitlingsource http://breitlingsource.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=4698 It ends up being a 13 page maathon about getting their own LE. Only the first page is really relevant.

It is actually a limited edition put out in Japan or somewhere I read on the breitling forum.
