  1. I wonder if anything prevents the waiter from accidentally pressing the button on the card to select a different account. I think this idea is or will be displaced by device payment, such as using your phone to pay for point-of-sale via a scan or Bluetooth, wifi or RFID.
  2. I just bought a Lenovo Yoga 2 i7 laptop for $1399 OTD at bestbuy. It's the newest freshy fresh. Nothing like it out there. Top of the line. It's a laptop with an amazing 3600x1600 resolution touchscreen with Win 8.1 It's worth a look to see if it fits your needs.
  3. I just got back from a visit to the AD. The 3777 looks pretty darn close. Here are a few iPhone pics. I also tried on the $14k 3878-06. Pretty sweet watch.
  4. Nice AP Dude. You too iCoop. Nice AT pic. My 3777 is getting a lot of time in the rotation.
  5. I got a gen bezel and black insert for my v5 PO. It's a must do item, as is the crystal. I haven't found and orange one yet but I haven't been looking too hard because I need to do the crystal. BTW I have a very useful thread on this forum where we discussed how to actually remove it. It's easy but you need a simple cheap tool and technique.
  6. Money doesn't buy good taste.
  7. It goes well with the crowd at his Montana ranch house??
  8. Good thing he can do what he wants with his property in the US. Him deciding to buy a 400k watch is probably like average folks deciding to buy a Thomas Kinkade.
  9. I'm kickin back with a young teenager this evening
  10. Switched watches half way through the day. And what a beauty day in Cali. New Gunny Blacksteel strap on the Anonimo
  11. I have all of them. XVI, XVII, 3717, and 3777. All are on bracelet except the XVII. So I'm thinking of selling my XVII and getting the new SS model if the dial not poorly aligned.
  12. Welcome aboard! Hope you stay a while
  13. oh! Well mine is a Mark XVI with XV bracelet. So XV might be 20mm. Let us know when/if you get it.
  14. It's just so obvious that it will not fit the XVI unless you made a typo and meant XVII.
  15. Angus just confirmed that he cannot sell them yet because there is Limited supply. He also said that the bracelet would not fit the original lug holes for the strap version if you had an old strap version. The bracelet on the XVI is much different.
  16. Maybe it does not fit well on older reps either.
  17. Nice but can we just order the brackets separately?
  18. They are makers. They are not dealers. BP stands for Big Pilot and that maker started out making the IWC Big Pilot. They did a great job and had great success so they made others. Noob is another legendary mass production maker. Check out http://pureti.me to see Puretimes selections. Puretime is a Trusted Desler who sells all makers like BP and Noob which he calls Mr. Creme de la Creme Angus runs Puretime.
  19. Thanks! I play scalloped neck exclusively. Like Ritchie Blackmoore and Yngwei Malmstein. There were never any choices to buy so I had to make my own. Of course I had to get the Fender Custom Shop Yngwei model when it first came out in 1988. Here are some pics comparing it to my Tiger II. The color is actually a black base coat with a clear coat that has blue and maroon pearl in it, so depending on the angle and lighting, it can look black, blue, or purple. Check out how much more custom my body it compared to the alder Fender Custom Shop. Fender scalloping Here's the scalloping... I bought the neck already scalloped because that is very difficult to do precisely. Here are views of the color And Paul's sig
  20. Those are some beautiful tops @Sol. What type of base wood did you use for the body? I was thinking of my next electric to be Alder for light weight. It's important to let beginners and intermediate musicians know not to get caught up in the powerful advertising machine for gear. Focus on good sounding, durable, reliable, and easy to play guitars, and same with amps. Lean towards simple combo amps to start. Unless you have tons of discretionary income. Same with acoustic guitars. Take the time to learn about their specifics and buy to your level of playing ability without breaking the bank. I can make a crappy good guitar sound really great, but not a crappy bad guitar. I have a sweet Martin HD28 And I also designed and built my own custom electric from a hunk of Honduran mahogany. Carved it out with much more sensual curves based on the Stratocaster shape. Even concave(d) the top to lower the weight. Had my buddy give it a very custom paint job in his auto body shop. Designed my own unique pick guard. Super custom shielded electronics with built in booster and splitters. Custom Seymour Duncan's. Original Floyd Rose aka Eddie Van Halen. Totally custom 'scalloped' fretboard. I even play with a copper pic exclusively. Got it signed on the back by Satriani, and one of my old teachers, Paul Gilbert. I played live professionally on a regular basis with this guitar for at least five years straight. This IMHO is how a guitar is suppose look... used and battle scared Sorry for the crappy foggy morning pics
