  1. Audemars Piguet. I'm loving it.
  2. I'm glad you like the UPO! For me personally, I am not a huge fan, but I do like your postmodern avant-garde style of "drawing on your keyboard with a pen" ;-) Where you get the Mont Blanc from anyhow?
  3. Patek Philippe... now there is a gen to aspire towards!
  4. What the hell is "Admin the Tank Engine?"
  5. Hmmm... the "special tool" you need to remove the old bezel includes a hair-dryer and needle, and the "special tool" you need to affix a new bezel includes "glue". My suggestion would be to ask your dealer to send you a new bezel and remove & replace accordingly. If none is available, maybe you can ask a mobile dealer to source one for you? Narikaa may or may not be able to do this... it is a long shot but maybe. Good luck, I hope you fix your watch... and trust me, 99.999999% of people who see it on the street will not notice...
  6. I don't know much about Ferrari reps, but this movement is one of the most reliable around - it is a workhorse that has great timekeeping and longevity... you will no doubt be impressed
  7. Not over here! The very fact that a watch can be repped eliminates it from my list as being a possible gen purchase. In my opinion, the only worthwhile gens a person should purchase to wear are those which are not easily copied. The new Rolex Yacht-Master should be a perfect example of this, and so are the elaborate and complex designs of Breguet, Blancpain, Jaeger LeCoultre, etc.
  8. Oh my goodness gracious you do not ever want to do this never ever ever not in one million years; bad bad bad idea sir it is better to let it unwind fully to null and re-wind anew each time, please do not experiment with doing it as you described it is not smart at all!!! I used to have this thought too that constantly winding and unwinding it would let it break but its just not true... these movements are designed to be used this way and it is their primary purpose to be wound and unwound! That is how they function... they will not break because of it, just like you car won't break if you accelerated sometimes and break other times, you don't leave your car running on the street on a dyno at 35 MpH so that in the morning you can burn rubber to work without having to turn the engine back on to accelerate down the street again!
  9. Wokky wokky you could use it to make TERIYAKI!
  10. Can someone please tell me how I can see Angus' Daytona?
  11. Russian MOSKVA 17 "kamieni" (jewels) manual handwind of unknown date/origin. Face got cracked... but I still have it, and it still runs (but way too slow)

    Victoria please contact a health professional in your community to make sure it is not a serious problem! It could just be a temporary adverse reaction to the chemicals but it is important for you to verify that just in case!
  13. My user name just gives links to dogs... Anyway, I hate it that this site pops up in google, it directly leads to more people acquiring high quality watches and that is very bad for those of us who wear reps to maintain a certain "image". I guess it makes me one unhappy dog.
  14. For about $5,000 you can get a solid gold President that weighs the same as a real one from Joshua... 18K gold, the works! (Sounds expensive but considering the gen is four times that price.... maybe not so bad if you really adore the watch!!)
  15. Maybe the person took your $10 and ran for vegas? Honestly, for a purchase that small, you should give it at least one month - and try to contact the dealer directly seems like a more appropriate solution.
  16. You could always just... ask him politely!
  17. You have more than one version of the same basic watch. You know who you are, submariner owners!
  18. Shanghai is not the best for watches but it is heaven for clothing. Kenberg has his headquarters there and if you can find that store you are in Armani heaven...
  19. Zonealarm is useless.... comparable to a explosion-proof front door that is perpetually locked and can neither be opened from the outside or inside.
  20. I wish I were a rich man. None of my shirts are compatible with cuff links... I don't think its a style that really picked up here in North America, we like our buttons, zippers, and Velcro thank you very much!
  21. Regular members can block ads with free products too, they include; -Mozilla FireFox -Adblock & -Filterset G. -The final two download and install easily into Mozilla firefox! I have seen not a single ad since my membership got discontinued!!
  22. I have one of these flying tourbillons, not this double but the single - this one is very unsymmetrical - I have to say - DO NOT LIKE! Sorry, but I think it is even worse looking than a HBB.
  23. My new tourbillon basically made me forget about all of my other watches...
  24. After all of that madness, the best way he could describe the subdial was to call it a "delight"? What happened? Did the computerized thesaurus overload or something??
  25. If you are not satisfied with your order... TTK will board the nearest private jet and arrive at your location in person to exchange your product... INSTANTLY! If you would like a watch that has not been invented yet... TTK will build it for you with his own two hands and have it shipped to you privately by a under-dressed supermodel... INSTANTLY! Using only the power of his mind, TTK will create a whirlwind around you such that every time you sneeze hundred dollar banknotes will come falling at you from the heavens... INSTANTLY! Jokes aside, this may just be the motivation I need for my first MBK of which I have heard such great things...
