Junglecat

Cheers Ken, that makes sense . I knew it would have to go through/has been through Chinese customs but was just suprised the tracker never said it did (not a problem though). I thought parcelforce handled all EMS uk deliveries? Anyway, I've decided with my next order not to bother with the tracker at all .

kept the cat then? Looks tres comfy!

Welcome , it's addictive!

2011-08-19 16:39:00 City of Guangzhou Posting 　 16:58:00 City of Guangzhou Despatch from Sorting Center 　 21:00:00 GUANGZHOU Arrival at Sorting Center 　 23:55:00 GUANGZHOU Despatch from Sorting Center 2011-08-24 15:14:00 UNITED KINGDOM COVENTRY PF Arrival at Sorting Center 2011-08-24 15:15:00 UNITED KINGDOM COVENTRY PF Handed over to Customs Update . Well it's in the UK so I'm very happy. I expected it to indicate it had gone to Chinese customs/Beijing first, which is odd. No matter though, first rep imminent - happy days!

Good things come to those who wait I guess .

that dial is cool! Have managed to get a few ball park figures in the UK in the last two days. All I can say is WOW, ridiculously expensive. I think I'm going to have to put this idea on hold until I have the time to try and make it up myself .

I'm in UK so checked with Parcelforce, the only status they have for my number is 'advised'. Don't really know what they mean by that.... I think I'll just stop checking lol

Hmm that doesn't fill me with confidence lol. I was hoping to have it by the end of the week but that seems unlikely . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZX0f4CL-T8

Haha fair enough. I'm like a kid at Christmas at the moment, it's quite sad lol.

I know I shouldn't be moaning about tracking/ems but I'm getting a bit worried/excited about my first rep . This is all the tracking info I have: 2011-08-19 16:39:00 City of Guangzhou Posting 16:58:00 City of Guangzhou Despatch from Sorting Center 21:00:00 GUANGZHOU Arrival at Sorting Center 23:55:00 GUANGZHOU Despatch from Sorting Center Havn't had any other updates for 4 days, I'm assuming it's still in China?

That's what I was going to do originally but it looked a bit too 'busy'. I think you are right about getting rid of them to be honest

Bit simpler maybe.

Hi everyone, thanks very much to everybody for their input and kind words . I agree that the inner numerals are a bit pointless but still not sure what to do there yet! Sounds like its going to be difficult to get just one made, I found a company in the UK that says that can produce one offs but they havn't got back to me yet with a rough estimate. If it's ridiculously expensive, I may have a go at printing it myself. I'm liking the guilloche idea very much though!

LOL

I think I'll ditch the numerals on the second dial and just have LX XV XXX and XLV at 12 3 30 and 45. Can't be bothered to do that at the moment though haha.

That's a great idea Tim, I will try it out for sure . This is just a VERY rough draft at the moment whilst I'm still trying to figure out if I can get it made somewhere .

Do you think thats better? Nothings lined up/scaled properly by the way yet .

It's actually a bastardised clock face but I think it's quite interesting. Will probably need to be about 37mm. Anyone know anywhere which will make up custom designs for you (I only want one). Also, I'll be using a 6497, do you think it's ok to not have a seperate dial/markings at 9 o'clock but still have the second hand, or do you think it'd look a bit strange? Also could be too crowded to be able to be made into a watch dial, I'm not sure. Hope some of this makes sense, I'm a total watch noob and never put anything together before really , so any help is greatly appreciated! Also I'm aware that I have terrible taste, it's just a bit of fun

That WOULD be impressive

This needs to happen

Yeah, it's a Sub made by noobfactory I believe. Recieved my quality control pics this morning from the factory and it looks tip top! The waiting begins

Wouldn't know mate to be honest, I'm sure somebody on here will know though!

Cheers Mike

Hi everyone, I've been lurking about for the last week or so and decided it was time I joined up and said hello! I am totally new to the rep world and luckily found this site before I placed any orders. After having a browse about I've started out with a Beginmariner from Josh, which I hope will arrive soon. There is no doubt in my mind that had I not stumbled across your forum, I would have ended up getting scammed by one of google's finest . Thanks again, I'm off to do some reading - it looks like there is a LOT to learn!
