Sorry, I've been away

As Andrew doesn't feel that he needs to promote his watches on this and other forums we like you will only stumble across new models. To be fair to him, he is my preferred dealer when buying an expensive rep, he does email his registered clients with new additions and special offers. I have seen the Corum reviewed on one of the forums, can't remember which one. It's on my wish list!

I think that the first is the SFSO (blue), the second a Breguet, the third a Cartier and the fourth the SFSO this time in white.

What bomb?

Wearing this for Christmas.........

Happy Christm,...........

A very Merry Christmas to you all wherever you may be.

Newf, Great review, I think I'll get one.

Marina

I thought it was amusing too!

Stingray, a highly sophisticated submarine built for speed and manoeuvrability, is the flagship of the World Aquanaut Security Patrol (WASP), a 21st century security organisation based at Marineville in the year 2065, located somewhere near the west coast of the United States. In case of an attack the entire city can be lowered into the ground on hydraulic jacks. Marineville is 20 miles (32 km) inland, and Stingray is launched from the base's "Pen 3" through a tunnel leading to the Pacific Ocean. "Action Stations", "Launch Stations" and "Battle Stations" are sounded not by sirens but by recordings of Native American-style drumming (composed and recorded by series composer Barry Gray). The pilot of Stingray is the square-jawed Captain Troy Tempest (modelled on James Garner), accompanied by Dixie navigator "Phones", so called because of his skill at interpreting hydrophone bleeps. (His real name, George Sheridan, is referred to in the show's publicity but never spoken on-screen). Troy and Phones board Stingray by sitting in their command chairs which are lowered into the submarine on long poles. They take their orders from the crusty wheelchair-bound Commander Sam Shore, whose daughter Atlanta Shore is also a WASP operative and enamoured of Troy. During the course of the series Stingray encounters lots of underwater races, hostile and otherwise. The "Aquaphibians", a submarine warrior race, appear frequently, often under the command of King Titan of Titanica (modelled on Laurence Olivier). In the pilot episode, Stingray is attacked by Titan's forces and Troy and Phones are captured. They are rescued by Titan's slave girl Marina (modelled on Brigitte Bardot), a beautiful mute young woman who can breathe underwater. Troy is immediately smitten with Marina, and Atlanta becomes jealous. Meanwhile Titan swears revenge for Marina's betrayal. Marina becomes a regular member of Stingray's crew, and later acquires a seal pup called Oink, who features in a number of episodes. Many subsequent episodes involve Titan's schemes to destroy Stingray and Marineville. These often fail due to the incompetence of Titan's surface spy, Agent X-2-Zero (modelled on Claude Rains[citation needed], but sounding like Peter Lorre).

Isn't he the head honcho in Thunderbirds?

Someone please remind me.....what's the commander's name?

News just in........ So, Troy Tempest is in the clear, Phones too!

Looks like a gen priced like a rep is the way to go.....the watch will be very well built and last a little longer than a rep and will probably have no flaws

....so what's wrong with a gen?

How about these?

You need a thick shell to understand what this is cracked up to be. I''ll get my coat....

This thread might die if I don't post this......

Or a Panerai!

Nice start to a Breitling collection!

To avoid most of these problems it's simple........don't buy from dropshippers. True some 'inspected' watches fall through the trap, but not many. We should all by now understand who inspects first. The merchandise costs a little more but it buys peace of mind. There is one collector here who offers a dual service, inspected at one price and dropshipped at another. There is another who will photograph the watch before despach. Another notorious dealer 'always delivers!' Is this too difficult to understand? I've made mistakes in the past and had to return watches at my cost, I've received the wrong watch and I've bought crap. I don't do that any more.

I'd just like to point out that... Oops, wrong thread, sorry

I use the Oral B and have lovely white teeth my wife uses the body of my toothbrush for the Tingle Tip adaptor, she has rotten teeth which is a shame because she has a permanent grin.
