:shock: That's messed up! A while back my wife had her card cloned online (while purchasing from a FairTrade clothing store ) and it was used on an online gambling site for about £100, but the bank still took care of it. Glad to hear your situation has been resolved though

That's a model we don't see every day Was it from Silix?

Always good to see that blue dial Looking good How're you finding the strap for wear? I'd say it's the most comfortable rubber strap I've tried

Good to see you back, bro

If we're being artistic, I call this 'watch on fundoshi':

Older subs wouldn't be an issue, I'd suggest contacting BK and seeing if he can help... Best of luck

I'm not sure... I have heard talk on forum of someone called Paul who traded as WoMart, but this particular person always signed their emails Cartoon, and lived in Thailand, so maybe not the same person? Either way, I can't complain about the service I received after getting a gratis watch, on what was a known fault of the 4th gens

The one JMB has is the best

The orange PO is nice... They can look a bit bright in photos, but to the naked eye, they are way more subtle

Absolutely, and credit where credit's due, Josh's clients always sing his praises when it comes to aftersales care, I can't fault him on that. The flip side of course, being that the only major issues I have experienced (wrong watch delivered, watches delivered with major QC issues, and missing parcels) have occurred while using a forum-trusted dealer, Silix... Indy dealers who there were issues with the watches, (two issues on two watches from two different dealers) always took care of the issue in the way as would be expected of a forum dealer The best example, is from years back when I bought a 4th gen Planet Ocean from a dealer on LoudFrog (traded as WoMart, signed their emails as Cartoon) After a while, the threads gave out so the crown wouldn't screw down (known fault with the watch, not an issue) but not only did they take it back for repair, but also sent me a Pumpkin PO gratis as an apology, when returning my own watch... Now that, was good service... I guess it's just hit and miss and luck of the draw in that regards [Edit to add] It's a bit like no matter how much a friend tells you another of their friends is okay, you always think they're a douche and keep them at arm's length...

I'm not working today, but wacky wednesday still calls for the work watch

Exactly so... Angus was originally part of the Cartel, so no surprise at all... And of advertising product X, when it was in reality product Y. All these reasons are why I never used any of the Cartel dealers, and still refuse to do so. Joshua has been better over the past few years, and I have seen instances when he has gone above and beyond to help a client, but I still wouldn't do business with any of them. Just my .2c on the issue...

I've never used any of the dealers involved anyway, so...

I'd say go with the UPO I'd like my next purchase to be a 1665, but I suspect it's more likely to be a budget sub for a long-planned project

+1 Couldn't've said it any better than that

Wow, that's a beauty

No swimming for me today, but the watch can get wet But not today... Kanji reads 'aniki', kind of Yakuza slang for 'brother', and is to represent my best friend

That really is what the DJs are all about: Understated elegance which will fit any situation, that's truly one of those watches someone could wear every day till the day they die, and never need another watch

Ahh, I think I know the kind of look you mean

I'd suggest a Tropic-style strap, so as to not compromise the watch's ability to get wet

That's still pretty solid black for 15 minutes, was the bleach watered down?

I know, I'm even planning projects which're as per original spec rather than my normal custom craziness, then again, it's supposed to be the End of the World before too long anyway

Incase anyone is trying to make out the face in the upper hutch, that's Sukoshi-San The bottom hutch is occupied by Frampton, but he pretty much remains in seclusion in the closed partition

This is the view from our window... I mask it with white-out film on the window, and just watch a lot of TV instead... The view from the front door is a bit better though Incase you're wondering, yes, I live in my inlaw's pool-house

What was I thinking to suggest such a thing?
