  1. Man, your mate Ed is a lucky man... I have read to my son since very early on (since he was two..) and now he reads to me (he is nine ... he is only six in my sig picture..). I have just come home from a VERY hard day with lots of heavy thinking (I am a health economist), and there is nothing i like more than hearing his voice and slowly falling asleep with him next to me reading. He is in the bath right now, but I am looking forward to him puttin his Pj's on, getting the pillows set up, tucking him in. Me setting up next to him while he reads "Harry Potter: Chamber of Secrets" . Makes me feel at home...and makes the ills of my day totally disapeer... If you mate Ed feels the way I feel, then he was a happy man when he died.... Thank you for doing this for him... Cheerio Winno...
  2. My wife has a Josh/perfect clones ladies Tag Heuer and a friend a the real thing. I could not spot the diference. I feel the plainer the better though....
  3. Hello....also from Aus... No probs with customs.. I only have one rep (fell in love with it and so haven't bothered with more!) but a mate has had 8 through with no questions....so don't stress....
  4. Can't help, but also interested. Any information would be appreciated....
  5. G'day all, When i was 8 my dad picked me up from school one day. This was quite uncommon as he worked stupidly hard 10 hours a day, six days a week on his own business. On this day he picks me up from school he has this big smile on his face and can't wait to get in the car to show me what he has bought for me... He bought me this lovely digital watch....silver with a blue face around the LCD..it even had a light in it that i used in bed after everybody had gone to sleep! I know, iknow, it was prob some dodgy cheapo watch, but my dad had done it for ME... Ever since then, I have loved watches, and this love of watches was something that he and i shared until the day he died ( he had a lovely Omega Constellation for years... Its a shame...don't know where that went to...).... Now my son has just turned 8 and i would love to do the same for him...but what do you recommend ? I think a Casio G shock would be good but they are all too big (he has very small wrist...even compared to boys his age), and all the small Casio's are 'Baby G's'.......and well he's not a baby....or a girl(which the baby g's are marketed for)....so they are out... Any other recommendations? Remember its got to be sturdy and not too dear.... So any thoughts for my little best mate? Cheers Winno
  6. Gotta say love my watches but love my Dura Ace parts on the Bianchi more...I consider White Lightning the best chain lube out there (love the stuff ..and i really have tried everything- from Mobil 1, virgin olive oil, my own bees wax concoction..etc) ... So sorry...only for the bike!
  7. hey.. Welcome along... espically if you anything to do with Tags!
  8. try a rep of the cv2014. I think you will find it is more accurate. And, personally, i think the black looks better on the rubber strap. Btw authentic watches is having a sale on the ba0794...$399 us shipped. Really i like the feel of the BA0794.. Btw jist fitting a gen eta 7750 into a joshua case now, i will tell you how it goes. Also looking at gen crown and chrono pushes which are available... Keep in touch Winno
  9. Hi all, I know the control of g_enuine Ta_g Heue_r parts is extremely tight, but i am on the look out for a couple of genuine parts to finish a chrono build 1. A gen cv2014 watch face. 2. A gen 7750 automatic winder, the later one winder with the holes either side of bearing. 3. A gen rubber seal kit for the cv 20 14 Hoping you can help. I had assistance from an AD to buy an official BA0794 ss bracelet (which i note is also available off Authentic Watches) but i dont want to push the friendship and for them to smell something fishy... Cheers all and hope you can help. Happy to take PM's if you don't want to openly share info, or name AD's who are friendly... Thanks Winno oh btw; the underscores are in the title to stop the google spybots picking up this thread if anybody searches for it on the open net.

  12. Thanks Mr Breeze... Is there anywhere online to buy the genuine bars for the cv2014? Or does Tag even limit the sale of these? /bonkers... Thanks again for all responses Winno
