    Say it like it is. It's a novelty watch. My "Rolex" was stopped once and I said it was a rep for personal use and sent the pay pal information. No problem in the mail 2 days after.

    Many watches has been stopped on the way to my door in Norway, but I have always given the pay pal documents.

    As far as I know there is no rule in Norway to get a replica if it's for personal use?

    I bought the 40 year old Speyside Finest (60th anniversary) for my father in law on his 60th birthday a couple of weeks ago. He starred at it for hours. I don't think he even remembers what other stuff he got. So I guess I hit homerun there:)

    Cheers

  5. Updated: Playing with Macro and HDR

    Thanks. The P.O was a raffleprize back in december on another site (All gen with papers.) We took some sick pictures of the PO movement too, but the pictures needs to be processed before I post them.

    As I don't have a macrolens for my Pentax K-x we ended up using his D90 40D and a Sigma macrolens. I'll keep putting pictures in this thread after he has stiched the bracket pictures. He told me not to use Photoshop for it as he had someething better for it. I'll get the program and play a little together with him.

    cheif;

    yes they might be. we just did up some really fast to see some results from today. I'll work some more with them later

    I think they've put in some surprises for the ones that dig in to the material like me. Found this funny detail on the roof of one of the buildings;)

    You found the turtle, one of the 10 easter-eggs of the picture !

    Guess I need to spend some more time looking at it. I'm too competative!....

    This is awsome. What did they shoot this with? [EDIT:2 Canon 5D Mark II (21.1 MP) each with a 300 mm f4.0 with a tele converter in order to get a 600mm /f8.0]

    When zooming in on people from 200 meters distance and can make out their faces. Incredible. The depth of the picture is awsome. I especially liked the scaffolding workers (working by the green net), how you see them in action. You can almost see what their next step is. To think they have no idea their part of work of art in my opinion is very cool.

    FYI I ended up in a police raid many years ago in a stripclub somewhere on that picture. Good times;)

    Thanks for sharing this. I guess I should start wearing clothes at home;)

  15. Watches I just don't 'get'

    ....

    Here in Switzerland you don't really show off gold and bling, its considered posing. While when in Hong Kong last November it seemed to me everybody was quite proudly wearing their wealth and bling. Cultural differences I guess. So no wonder Rolex changes its design when focusing on Asia.

    ....

    +1 here. I used to work in HiFi (Audio/Video) retail and it's the same way there. It's funny how things sell more or less in the different regions around the world. For instance when I was in retail, the Germans tended to want all the metal peices showing on a speaker or an amplifier to be silver, the scadinavians wanted them black and the asians wanted them gold. The Scandinavian model just would not sell on the asian market and so on...

    Then it's the time and the different fashions that changes in cycles. My "mother in law" just changed their wallpaper last year that was long due to be changed. However, this year the exact style is back on the market. Even though it was 30 years since last time.

    Then it's the fact that one matures. What you would focus on at the age 15 will most likely not be what you will focus on when you're 30. The understanding of lines and designs will be more advanced and most people will more easily see the complexity of a design as they get older. Or just lack of complexity, the simplicity of a design.

    That's the beauty of having a hobby that evolves with time. What I hate today, I might love tomorrow;)

    What we really need to be questioning is how the hell NORing has won 4+ raffles. :brow:

    Haha, I was waiting for that to be mentioned in this thread. Wearing my GEN PO as this is being written, my reponse to your observation is; If you ask thousands of girls to sleep with you, you'll hit jackpot at least 4 times in a row at some point. Damn tired of asking though..........

    edit: Both LoS and Lani have been fast in every way, professional in general and a dream to deal with when it comes to the raffles. I think I know a bit about it by now.

  23. RWG Newsletter..update

    You know it's funny you mentioned the bit:

    I've been wondering what's been up with Pugwash lately? Haven't seen him around in a long time. There was even a Birthday thread wishing him a happy birthday which I don't remember him posting in. The last time I saw any posts, he asked about Vegas because he was going to be there this weekend for the CES. Anyone heard from him?

    Well I gave him instructions on how to be part of the pornindustry in that thread, as the AVN Awards run at the same time as the CES. I had a blast as a VIP pretend porn-producer at the awards some years ago. I think it's actually this weekend. Maybe he's changed his identity and ended up working in that field?

    Now that's what I'm talking about!!!.. different cultures.. foods.. .. why not be the first to do this NR.. do you have time for it.. a couple of weeks??.. of course your uncanny LUCK..:lol:

    No problem. I do however probably need to wait until I go offshore again on one of the oilrigs, I think that will be more interesting. I can then combine an article with the three lives I live. One onshore at work, one offshore at work and one of the 4 weeks I have off in between ;) I'll start tomorrow and build up an article. I will then contact you with the end result if this sounds ok? I'm starting my ON schedule in a week. I think there are a lot of interesting lives on this forum, so this could be a nice contribution to a newsletter me thinks...
