  9. Your missing the point Techy we know Ziggy we have know him for many years and we know where his heart is, maybe his way is old fashioned, so what! The fact is what Ziggy does he does better than anyone else on these boards have even come close to and we as a whole are more that happy that he keeps doing it HIS WAY. So the question now is why are you trying to discredit him? Ken
  10. Techy I'm going to guess that the only problem we have here is youthful enthusiasm and that you truely wanted to help but got a little hot under the collar when you saw your post get shot down. Ok a couple of quick facts;....................(just because you like periods)................Ziggy is our boards No. 1 citizen, he has earned that mantle by constantly watching over us, looking after our watches, pointing out flaws in new movements and spending countless hours writing up guides on anything he believes us natives can handle ourselves. You may indeed still have much to offer our little community but please always remember................(more periods for your viewing pleasure).........................Ziggy is the master! Ken
  11. Thanks for the link J I just had a quick chat with him too... Me: What watch does God wear? God: I'll ask around and get back to you. Me: No I'm asking you God: Are you serious? OK you can ask me. Me: so what watch do you wear? God: So? I think you already know the answer. Me: maybe but I prefer you to tell me God: Perhaps. Thanks, I like you too . Me: yeah well everyone likes me, it's a pity you don't have the same success God: Tell me more. How about that. That's a rather sweeping generalization. Ken
  12. Unfortunately if there is a missing notification from cutoms that should be on the packet and there is something you need to pay I'm guessing they already know what's in there, also I would be very cautious about asking a friend to tamper with the package as in most countries that's serious jail time. Ken
  13. Yeah ryy I bumpped into him at the Seven Eleven the other day, made him spill some of his slurpy in fact, he just mumbled something about forgiveness being the true measure of man. Stay cool my friend Ken
  14. Yeah Flame as Puggy just stated you may indeed have to chalk it up to experience due to the simple fact that this dealer is going to say hang on sport you held the watch in your hands before buying it's a bit late to bring it back now. Just out of interest how much did you fork out for the watch? Ken
  15. Reg you can be a real bar steward when you want to Ken
  16. Wow the ultimate in sport watches, I would buy this way before I considered a HBB or a BCE Ken
  17. Indeed welcome aboard And I have to admit those cg's don't look to hot at all. Ken
  18. Besides robi you should know I'm neither crazy nor insane. I'm Nucking Fut's!!! Ken
  19. Next one gets a warning Joe Ken Edit; ok I see you are done....good
  20. Joe, TT doesn't like you that's his perogative, but TT is a mod and trying to discredit a mod on his own board is a very foolish thing to do it can only end in warnings and bans. Ken
  21. Read it again Joe, Admin did not accuse you of doing anything wrong he simply stated the facts. Ken
  22. Hi flamemax, this thread is about RWI not RWG. Ken
  23. Once again excellent suggestions T I'm sure both the pro and con parties would agree to such a thread. Ken
  24. Ok I missed making any form of comment on RWI before the thread was locked down but I just want to say here that Edge has been a personal friend since the inception of both our boards and only one other had as much love for RWI as Edge and that was Cucumber Jones and now they are both gone......................where is the justice in this? Ken
