  1. c] pneumatic drill

    I've actually used one of those and a Tigre metal saw numerous times with both my toolwatches, a Seadweller and a 177H. I work in the north sea on oilrigs and I've bought them for work purpose. I keep my other watches for casual and party. They have both done almost a year of timeservice for me in both storm and rainshowers. If Sly can do doomsday manouvering in a dark underwater tunnel with his PAM, I reckon I can abuse mine at work. After all I think they deserve more than dustcover and winder on a shelf. I say everyone should have one or two kick ass work watches ;) No casio at work for me ;)

  2. Just got back from Spain where my 111 got a lot of attention. Had it on the rubber because of the heat. On my way back, transferring in Paris, a guy with the real one raised his hand to indicate that we had the same watch. I bet his was a little bit more expensive ;)

    Took a "all the good things in life" shot of mine with the camera. What do you think ?

  3. My new and perfect Cousteau from Angus. I was the lucky winner of one Asian version, but decided to buy a ETA as well. This watch is awsome. Got it today and haven't found any thing to be worried about:)

  5. Keep us updated.

    I read the same comment on a EMS tracking page from Andrew once...it stayed for weeks and then got a letter from customs.

    This is EU though, not Canada.

    This happens all the time to me (Norway), I always have to wait 2-3 days extra but I'm getting used to it. They even broke down a toy where in it one of my watches were once, no questions just past it on, haha. One of my rolexes they once wanted me to pay 25% tax for, new retail price. Had a hard time explaining the new price wasnt $5000 but rather $400. When they found my documentation adequate they passed it on to me:)

    I don't know about your countries, but in Norway I always get a paper I have to sign before customs can open my package. Customs are not allowed to open packages before they have my consent.

    So I hope I get a customs notification agion soon, that just means I have something coming for me:) This time something nice from PureT.

  6. :)At least, now that you saved some $$$, you can upgrade to a VIP membership :rolleyes:

    Will do, will do. I have always wanted to have it done, but I keep forgetting. I'll have it done after the weekend, now I'm off to enjoy Gin and Tonic' together with my friends and my 177H ;)

  7. A press with a large die that fits around the bezel should do it.

    Thanks, I was thinking of it. I'll see what i can find, but was wondering if I the glass was directional or something. Someone described it as fairly easy to push down but I guess this differs from watch to watch.

    Just afraid to make a mistake :)

  8. I've been around for a while, but kept a low profile. I'm a Norwegian collector that resently have lost total control over my willpower. I almost don't use my computer for PORN anymore, it's all about watches. I am afraid I will end up getting turned on by watches insted of women:) ---> Actually my PAMs' allready do turn me on a bit :p

    RWG has allready taught me a lot and I'm very happy to find people with the same passion as me, but with far more knowlegde. Actually It was another member of this forum that got me hooked on watches just months ago. Now I've spent more than 1000$ on watches allready :)

    Thanks to Davidsen, Andrew, Angus and last but not least Falco that just sent me a smoking 111H.

    Wear them well guys:)
