Try scrapping it off (lightly) with a razor or box knife first, in many cases superglue will no adhere well to metal surfaces, especiall if it is not high grade steel. Ken

When push comes to shove kokedose has the answer.......just like his avatar Ken

Silix has (or had) them but not in Ti I don't think. Ken

50% you say... Wanna buy a watch Ken

Noooooooooooooooooooooo you don't mean they're over Do you? Ok then Ken

Sorry you see it that way Doc because the truth is much different. The 6K franken you refer to started much debate within the Admin section but I am sure that you, and in fact, all our members want a well thought out ruling on these type of sales and not just an immediate knee jerk reaction. The Admin team has (by the continued inclusion of senior members) only improved over time and we are still doing the same job we did at the formation of this board, only better. Ken

Commiserations Todd, take all the time you need to get it all back together and when you do as TT said the light is always on for you. If it helps any most of us consider those who attacked you over the mix up on those deals as to be lacking class, indeed after trying to drag you through the mud they still failed to post here that all was settled. Ken

Actuay the painted brass is no real surprise as the phone would be much more expensive if it was real Ti Iteresting about the numbers coming off as this might be a problem with all these phones, could clear nail polish over the numbers of a new phone be the answer? Ken

Excellent review thanks BT.......again What is interesting to note is that at one time rep manufacturers would not reproduce watches that were on the lower end of the market (1 to 3K) as the theory was that most could afford the gen. Now however we are not only seeing these watches but they are coming out as super reps. Ken

Mickey speaks his mind but is always honest. Ken

You know there are many of us (yeah me too) who read these reviews and don't reply, it's a time factor thing, however that is not to say we don't appreciate them. There are times when I wish I could have taken the reviewer path instead of the moderator because the truth is that as long as this board continues these reviews (and tech knowledge posts) will be found by curious noobs from time to time and they will post "Wow what a great thread".......in other words you have left something tangible of yours to benefit your hobby. People will come and go but embrace the noobs for they are tomorrow. Ken

Well you guys seem determined to keep this thread alive. So just for you.... Ken

A Husband takes his wife to play her first game of golf. Of course, the wife promptly hacked her first shot right through the window of the biggest house adjacent to the course. The husband cringed, 'I warned you to be careful! Now we'll have to go up there, find the owner, apologize and see how much your lousy drive is going to cost us.' So the couple walked up to the house and knocked on the door. A warm voice said, 'Come on in.' When they opened the door they saw the damage that was done: glass was all over the place, and a broken antique bottle was lying on its side near the pieces of window glass. A man reclining on the couch asked, 'Are you the people that broke my window?' 'Uh...yeah! , sir. We're sure sorry about that,' the husband replied. 'Oh, no apology is necessary. Actually I want to thank you. You see, I'm a genie, and I've been trapped in that bottle for a thousand years. Now that you've released me, I'm allowed to grant three wishes I'll give you each one wish, but if you don't mind, I'll keep the last one for my self.' Wow, that's great!' the husband said .. He pondered a moment and blurted out, 'I'd like a million dollars a year for the rest of my life.' 'No problem,' said the genie 'You've got it, it's the least I can do. And I'll guarantee you a long, healthy life!' 'And now you, young lady, what do you want?' the genie asked. 'I'd like to own a gorgeous home complete with servants in every country in the world,' she said. 'Consider it done,' the genie said. 'And your homes will always be safe from fire, burglary and natural disasters!' 'And now,' the couple asked in unison, 'what's your wish, genie?' 'Well, since I've been trapped in that bottle, and haven't been with a woman in more than a thousand years, my wish is to have sex with your wife.' The husband looked at his wife and said, 'Gee, honey, you know we both now have a fortune, and all those houses. What do you think?' She mulled it over for a few moments and said, 'You know, you're right. Considering our good fortune, I guess I wouldn't mind, but what about you, honey?' You know I love you sweetheart,' said the husband. I'd do the same for you!' So the genie and the woman went upstairs where they spent the rest of the afternoon enjoying each other. The genie was insatiable. After about three hours of non-stop sex, the genie rolled over and looked directly into her eyes and asked, How old are you and your husband?' 'Why, we're both 35,' she responded breathlessly.. 'No Kidding,' he said. 'Thirty-five years old and both of you still believe in genies?' Ken

Just finished a lovely evening of a family lamb roast with all the trimmings (can't rock on until the weekend), it's nice to see all your Birthday wishes in this thread, thanks everyone. Ken

Thanks guys, I thought it must have slipped past but it feels good to get the well wishes. And CBR there is no such thing as horrific whiskey Ken

Ok now I feel better....thanks guys Ken

What if you had a Birthday but no one noticed? Ken

Quite often we ask ourselves hard to answer questions, like, What is a bastard?? And we wax philosophic with metaphysical postulations, incomplete aphorisms, and inconsistent sophisms that make one more and surer that the only true thing is that a picture is worth a thousand words. In this photo, the guy on the right is a member of a bomb squad in the middle of a deactivation. The guy behind him, well, he's a bastard. Ken

Hi Magie and welcome to RWG Most of our collectors will have some nice PP's for you to chose from, not being an expert on them I can't comment on their accuracy although I am sure there will be some members along soon that can point you to the best buys. Ken

A man was leaving a convenience store with his morning coffee when he noticed a most unusual funeral procession approaching the nearby cemetery. A long black hearse was followed by a second long black hearse about 50 feet behind the first one. Behind the second hearse was a solitary man walking a dog on a leash. Behind him, a short distance back, were about 200 men walking single file. The man couldn't stand the curiosity. He respectfully approached the man walking the dog and said, 'I am so sorry for your loss, and this may be a bad time to disturb you, but I've never seen a funeral like this. Whose funeral is it?' 'My wife's.' 'What happened to her?' The man replied, 'My dog attacked and killed her.' He inquired further, 'But who is in the second hearse?' The man answered, 'My mother-in-law. She was trying to help my wife when the dog turned on her.' A poignant and thoughtful moment of silence passed between the two men. 'Can I borrow the dog?' The man replied, 'Get in line.' Ken

Ahh Chuck Norris.......his round house kick is delivered in .035 seconds or the next ones free. Actually Google 'Find Chuck Norris' and click 'I'm feeling lucky' Ken

@Iceberg lets try this again....Tribal is the boards foremost Rolex expert he has compared these watches with the physical items and you are trying to refute what he says with pictures?? Ken

Personally I find comments about quality from people who have not bought them rather amusing, my review section is jam packed with claims of near authentic quality from my customers. Those that do, know Those that don't, criticize Ken

Only problem guys is when they compete they will be in one piece cossie with those horrid nose plugs and freaky make up, not to mention the cheesy smiles. Oh and don't forget all that long blond hair will be stuffed under a swim cap. I think we have already just seen the best of them. Ken
