My bad. Admin, move it as see fited.

On Wednesday, October 3 President Bush vetoed H.R. 976, legislation enacted by Congress to fund a $35 billion expansion of the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP). The legislation will return to the House, which will vote first to override the veto. House leaders have scheduled that vote for October 17 in order to allow them more time to milk the issue politically while continuing to put intense pressure on fellow Congressmen to join them in overriding the veto. This legislation carries an especially punitive tax on handmade cigars - a tax that will unequivocally cause the cigar industry to atrophy. Don't misunderstand, this isn't about just paying a little more for cigars and showing a little compassion. With the stroke of a pen, if the House successfully overrides the veto, this legislation will wipe out many retailers and distributors, put in jeopardy thousands of American jobs and literally hundreds of thousands more in Central America. This legislation is the opposite of compassion, and punitive taxation without representation like this is tyrannical. This federal cigar tax is the single biggest threat the tiny cigar industry has ever faced and time is of the essence. Cigar enthusiasts of all political stripes - and clear-thinking people everywhere - need to band together right now to sustain the President's veto. Pressure your House Representative to sustain the veto - the House vote is expected to be extremely tight and the threat of overriding the President's veto is very real. Click here to take action - urge your Congressmen to sustain the veto by VOTING NO to a veto override.. The very survival of the handmade cigar industry, most importantly jobs, are at stake.

i know of a memeber who ordered the soccer version and it was indeed the 28.8K version. Only diff form the 440 version is No AR but well worth it.

Ive been seeing this watch pop up a lot and I am certainly intrigued by it and Im sue I will be acquiring one in the near future.

Ive worm my reps with a few in my carry on as well thorugh several airports and secutiry and one one has ever said a thing. Gouing through Puerto Rico once the guys at security opened up my laptop bag as I had 6 watches in a case and they asked about them. I said they were watches of mine. Asked if I bouht them on my trip and I said no. I had them in a nice case well secured so they did not think much of it after they questioned me and I went my merry way.

I have the desk one and was contemplating the wrist one. We have it to our boss as a joke for christams one year. He weard it dilligently.

thats more than a couple mate. Looks like you need some more for those straps there. Nice collection.

Beautiful pieces Max. If you can find a strap with blue stitching that would look hawt.

Good deal. I could not tell at all from the pics there is any AR on it. Looking forward to seeing yours when it comes back from double AR.

The rep has no AR on it. You can see pics of it here. It will be added to my tocabco dial collection shortly. http://www.repgeek.com/showthread.php?t=3257 **Admin if you dissaprove of link please remove it**

I got a few watches from them back when....about 7months ago. Watches were delivered fast and were pretty decent quality but less price than other dealers. They are still wroking good. Others have had not so great experience. I stilck to forum dealers now.

Name Calling, TWP always calls me the "Fat Kid". :jerry::jerry::jerry:

I have the Asian 21J movement on it.

I have yet to experiment in the Chinatown in the chicago area but I will be out there this week spenidng a day with da wife shopping. She lets me buy all these watches so gotta take care of her too.

Ive had mine rockin and rolling for about 9 months now. I have taken it in pools, ocean, forest, water parks and have had no issues with getting water on it. Movement has been solid for all this time too and it keeps great time.
