Ordered mine yesterday, I'm hoping about 4-6 weeks, so just in time for Christmas.

I've orders the same, well almost - I've ordered it with a cyclops. We shall have to compare and contrast when they arrive. I guess it'll be a month to six weeks?

Hmmmmmm lovely. I'm just about to go for a TC sub with the black date wheel.

Maybe it's something small and I agree that you'd only see it twice a day, but it would bug me, I just know it would. As to bezel etc, I guess I could go gen if I needed to. I really don't know why, but IHS would get me, just knowing would be enough. lol I guess it's horses for courses as there are some lovely reps of the GMT II

Thanks for the comments both. Very useful. And, yes I'm talking about the GMT II. It was Andrew who advised against it! I'll have a ponder and probably take a chance.

I keep thinking about buying a Rolex GMT. Now looking at a few TD web sites I find that most have the incorrect hand stack, i.e. the GMT hand being below the hour hand rather than above it. Then Puretime came good and have the correct hand stack. I placed an order only for it to fall through before payment. I'm still waiting for them to get back to me as to the reason why the order was rejected. I emailed another TD who came back and said that the correct hand stack is not available. When I pointed them to the Puretime version I was told that yes, it's available but is unreliable and hence the reason why they have chosen not to sell it. So, has anyone a Rolex with the correct hand stack, is it reliable? Thanks all.

If AJ has a watch I like I just stalk him for a few days until it pops up for sale

Beck's has gone so just a Crabbies and a couple of Desperardos left easy peasy. Laters dudes.

Haha, I'd love to but I bees in Southampton tonight.

I love you guys. You're my new extended family. Beck's says hi BTW.

Cheers all, I will be starting shortly. I'll check out of here now before I make an [censored] of myself by telling you all I love you!

Many thanks all. No Pete, luckily it's a Holiday Inn. And, I hope you're not speaking from experience lol.

Well, I've got to work today, but tonight will be away in a hotel for work so may have to sit and get a wee bit pished at the bar.

If you like the watch and intend to keep it,mother just find a local watchsmith and have it serviced. Then you'll be safe in the knowledge that it should run fine for many more years to come.

Now that is lush. Which TD if I may ask?

I'm in the middle of a purchase! I've paid the member via PayPal so I hope the transaction goes smoothly still.

Fantastic mate. You will have relieved me of my pam headache once this is up and running.

Okay thanks, I was worried for a minute as I can't get EXXON Elite over here. I was going to ask if I could use Yourfrickinpullinmyleg Mineral oil lol. Love it keep up the humour guys

So, now I have started to get my bracelet feeling a bit better, edges are smoother than they were. However, the bracelet still 'feels' new - squeaky even, although that may not be the best word to describe it: it kind of rattles. Any advise to a noob of how to make it feel less cheap?

Blimey, you change your watch more often then I change my pants. (Well almost) I'm impressed and I guess that's half the fun of reps and the rep community.

Okay, sounds simple enough. I'll give it ago. Many thanks for the reply.

I've just taken delivery of my new Sub from Andrew. Whilst it's very nice, the bracelet feels a little 'sharp'. The edges/sides of each link feel like they need to sanded VERY lightly to make them more comfortable, heck, if I tried I bet I could shave with it at the moment! Any advise?

Today I'll mostly be wearing this.

Does Ginger Beer count? Alcoholic ones of course! If so, then Crabbies, a lovely fiery alcoholic ginger beer. mmmmm, if the sun was over the yard arm I'd have one now.

Made it with a minute or two to spare. Sorry for the poor iPhone pic. note to self, must do better next time.
