& therein lies the missing link in today's maternalized, indiscriminate PC society.

I was so scared of my ex Marine (combat Korea) Dad I dared not and you know I can not remember him ever laying a glove on except once. At 15-16 got caught drinking beer behind a factory with a few guys the night watchmen wanted us hauled in (we were), cops just take your beer and let you go as a rule back then but he pushed it. Well off to the pokey we went no charges just called our parents: well they brought me out Mom and Dad there, right in front of police desk he levels me. Sgt turns to other cop who brought me in "will not see him again".......(how do think cops would react now).............. and they did not. By the way when Dad cooled off in a few days told me " I didn't hit you for drinking beer you can drink beer at home you got caught by the cops and hauled in for it, never embarrass the family again like that." Now we have safe spaces,councilors and fucking ponies because Trump got elected, hopefully we are not lost.

Guys I just copy and pasted a bunch no problem , from the net , here, no problem. On a PC not a phone no tappatalk.

Oh just to tease Nanuq  another one, he loves this set up:

Well guys I have been doing some wheeling and dealing and this Black Seal out got us a Firenza 604,but not to worry we have yet another Black seal about to replace it! (the amount of watches at the MOAB house is scary thanks to the generosity of our members)

No legend same wrong address scam pulled on you but like you used CC as I remember so should be covered.

TZ=Time Zone

For Pete's sake guys cut the crap!

Hmmm can't remember but then again I do not tell the wife about any watches.................................

 Interesting piece to say the least.

Well you are not getting a Telda (none for sale) or the Gervil (over 2k not going there IMHO ) , if your going that high better gen options.

Never ever send a watch back, I rather pay 100 bucks (a bit more of a major fix than you needed for sure) to sort a watch out. I'd say most of the time sending back results in a bigger lose, these guys are set up to ship (keep in mind clandestinely you are buying illegal goods) not receive back hence many problems occur.

How would he know if you put a phone number or not on the package if he never got it?

Oh by the way shipping back to China for a loose rotor silly, cheap fix by a watch smith here was the move.

I went a hunting info on this watch , could not find any.

Ok guys refined search found a few:

OH thought you were talking gen on the rep you are not getting the new state of the art quartz. If you really want to go in deep on this use pics of movements then go look at pics of ETA and Ronda quartz movements to see which ones there are (not going to be easy), but no guarantee your going to get the exact ones in the pics anyway.

PS save the $100 you can always replace quartz movement for 20 bucks.

All quartz are not created equal now the ETA Precidrive is very good quartz and worth the extra coin IMHO, what's in the watch?

Good work helping each other out here gents.

Raffle due up within a week I will PM you w/ a link when I put it up.

Nicely done !

To get back to OP's topic my self, I have had many many pass my door and no problems to speak of. I do however stay away from chrono models so that helps so my three hands just chug along. Now this may be due to my practice of wearing gens to work although no serious pounding going on there anyway and my major activity is kayaking and again due to water hazard I wear gen, no sense taking chances. (sort of beached due to frozen lake in my backyard!)

The thought of mountain biking scares me, no watch needed!
