  1. Once at work I put an email notification on a co-workers computer that said "You have mail, pattern baldness" Funny it was, [censored] he got.
  2. The crown placement on Rolex reps bothers me more than the etched crystal. That can be seen at a distance, the crystal would take some studying at close range.
  3. Strange I have not had one in a while. They must know I am pretty healthy, but how do they know I have a small penis?
  4. You sound desperate, I wish I was selling it. LOL.
  5. Like Ti with patina grey? That would be so nice.
  6. Keyless works fug up's, lume attempts gone terribly and horribly wrong, many, many lost parts = carpet patrol with the wife laughing at how stupid I am, bent hands, bent bezels, scratching the hell out of a case trying to screw/unscrew or pry, broken teeth on gears when a screwdriver slipped.................etc etc etc I have [censored] up most everything at one time or another !!!!!!!!!!!!! Many times I have said screw it and wanted to throw all my stuff up for sale or in the trash, but never did. I just take a deep breath, drink a scotch or two, and try again. Me doing stupid [censored] does not mean the world is coming to an end. It just means I need more practice. There is no substitution for hands on practice and having the correct tools.
  7. If it's stopping at the exact same place it could be a hand clearance issue.
  8. Will it turn darker gray, or will it turn blue? I am asking because I have a nice PAM ss crown guard that I wish would match a TI case.
  9. Keep your reps and buy the gen. It does not have to be all or nothing, you can enjoy both. I enjoy the thrill of the hunt with reps. Sometimes you win sometimes you lose, but you never know unless you try. Reps for me are all about how creative you can be. How much passion you put into it is what you will get out of it. With a gen it's like paying to shoot the exact one you want on some safari guided hunt. It may be $1000 it may be $10,000, but you get exactly what you want, but there is nothing creative or special about it. We are all collectors, and we all love a nice time piece. Rep or Gen does not matter. Love them for what they are.
  10. They all drop ship (with the exception of just a couple) and they all sell the same items from the same factories. I have had good experiences with Paul in the past.
  11. I have bought my last 4 reps from other members and have had nothing but excellent transactions each time. I have also saved a little bit of $$ which lately has been hard to come by.
  12. Yes he does them, if you are also replacing the crown to a genuine crown. At least this is what on the The Zigmeister list. If he has changed his mind, that's his prerogative. Would be best to ask him personally IMO.
  13. Maybe not a dress watch for some, but for me
  14. lay it on a flat surface, you will be able to tell where it is bent, then get creative. Use the wood end of a hammer to give a good bang while the flat end is clamped. Set it in between two boards in on your deck and push. You will find something if you think it out. Be patient and check your progress often. Don't try to do it all at once. Slow and steady wins the race.
  15. MBW has has POLEX not POLFY.
  16. We are in the same boat. My children want to go to the movies and I hate it but we dont go. That's $50 plus for us as a family and we need the money elsewhere. And you are right we have cut back too but there is still nothing extra. The "world community" considers us all spoiled and rich, so no we shall not see any help from others. We are on our own and they are laughing behind our backs. If the US economy continues to slide into the [censored], it will have an effect on the world, not just the US.
  17. I have used 30 epoxy from the auto parts store. It's 2 parts and you mix equal amounts together. 5 min epoxy would be good too, I just enjoy extra dry time just in case. I have no idea what The Zigmeister uses. All he said was plastic filler. Edit to add that I am only talking about the pearl. I would not put anything on the hour markers.
  18. Not all cities even have public transportation as an option, just the large metropolis areas, so toss that idea out.
  19. In my opinion it is Chinese humor, basically gibberish making fun of the original. I think it's funny.
  20. Everything is going up, our grocery bill has gone up a good bit and with 4 children it is very noticeable. Americans are losing jobs at record rates and President Bush signing a bill that authorizes a 13-week extension of unemployment benefits does give me a warm fuzzy about the future either.
  21. 30 min epoxy dries clear and hard and it's pretty easy to get a dome. The Zigmeister stated on one post he has used plastic filler on pearls.
