  1. For my experience choose a version "gold" in comparison to one "nickel" means the problem of the aging.

    Because ?

    I have experiment that "nickel" quickly becomes old in comparison to the "gold" version.

    For example : bodily sweat, perfumes .... when enters to contact with the movement, the "nickel-version" is attached before the "gold-version".

    Don`t understand! Is your caseback not closed tight enough? Why should sweat, perfumes get in contact with the movement when the caseback is tightly closed?

  2. Admin,

    It`s been obvious you had a shitload of problems lately not to mention been threathend with dead. If you think this is a time to take a break from it all and contemplate, it is so. You will become a stronger man for it. I wish you well but won`t say goodbye because i`m absolute certain that you will return.

    regards retep

    on an unrealted note, how difficult for a newbie tinkerer do you think it is to instal the palp crown including the filing of the lever and stem? how likely am I to f- up the stem?

    Are you one of the people he is talking about?

    And I think Ken explained it better than the card did!

    There are lots of similar puzzles to this, but worth a whirl once I reckon....

    Sam was taking a holiday break on BIN Island, an island where the girls are often sans underwear, the natives always lie, and the visitors always tell the truth :blink: He was strolling along the beach one day when he approached two ladies tanning themselves. One of the ladies got up and said, "I'm Sue and this is my friend Dolly." One of the ladies was a native and the other a visitor. After her introduction Sue said to Sam, "one of us is a native." Which one is a native and which one is a visitor? :g:

    Sue is naked so she is the native one.
