Nice intro, welcome to RWG John Paul I hope you have many enjoyment filled hours here Ken

Bill do yourself a favour and buy a ticket in our current raffle, you could win a full workshop of top line watch tools Ken

So why post in Auction Scams? Ken

That is a fantastic list Ziggy and will help our members no end, just say the word and she's off to our Knowledge base. Ken

Wow I should probably offer up a more lucid response so.................great pic's Neil...........Wow Ken

Ok now thats freaking funny Ken

Simply leave the watch beside your bed overnight and in the morning touch the crystal to your forehead, sapphire will be noticeably colder than mineral glass. Ken

Whoa there fella, of all the watches out there you are willing to take a shot that you might have this one You must have a lot of watches.........................is there something you're not telling me here? Ken

@ Scott Earle welcome to RWG and yes that was a nice first post, stick around a while and help us try and keep that brother of yours in check. Ken

Me too and it's better than the one posted here Good on you guy's it look's like a good time was had by all Ken

This site claims to be offering up to 70% off accomendation in many Chinse hotels.. http://www.ecvv.com/public/biz_service_hotel.html Ken

What no before and after pic's! ........................... Sounds good but I'll wait and see someone else's finished clasp first Ken

Actually I would be surprised if you need to be a supporter to buy a raffle ticket, cuts out a heck of a lot of poyential buyers. I'll look in to it. Ken

Puggy Puggy Puggy............................Jokes are like Movies................anythings possible. I laughed Ken

Heeyy now we have only just had a very long thread where everyone stated how much this forum deserves to be supported. Well here it is, support the forum that supports you! Even if everyone only buy's one ticket we would sell out in one or two days and don't forget there are some great prizes on offer, so c'mon pony up. Ken

Bazz has done me a good turn on an occassion too, he is a real credit to our community. Thanks B Ken

Ok seeing we are on this topic..........................I can't do it!...............Umm maybe I better explain that statement, I have been practising with cheap quartz movements to remove the crown and I have stuufed up a lot of them too. I usually scan the whole movement with a ten times loupe to find anything that could conceivablly be the crown removal button, only when I am fully satisfied that I have the correct button do I then try to remove the crown. I have tried with a very gentle push and gradually pushing harder until I completely stuff it but I have never succeeded in removing a crown, I have even taken a movement to a watchmaker and asked which button to push! In fact yesterday I had a movement that actually had lettered on the back PUSH and an arrow pointing to the button but I couldn't get it to budge, to make matters worse a friend popped in and asked what I was doing so I showed him and let him have a go and 5 minutes later he's sitting there with the bloody crown in his hand and he knows nothing about watches!!! So big question......................what in blazes am I doing wrong Ken

I'm not sure it's the surface, to me it look's like the photo shows two crystals stacked on top of each other. Ken

TTK again for the Omega Deville but keep your eyes open for a nice PP. Ken

Ken never sleeps until the job is done Ken

*psst*.....................Methinks you better pop some pic's up before the situation turns decidedly ugly Ken

I have promised my Minister not to covet other mens watches, so I'm not looking at this watch any longer..........................................because she's sooooo niccee Ken

well ok then........................I hope you had a good time..............bye Ken

Well guy's kick off your shoes pull up a chair and make yourselves at home until RWI is back up Ken PS...........................Ididn't really mean that kick off your shoes bit........................phew :yucky:

I was in Fiji during their last coup and whilst there was no tanks rolling through the streets it still got a bit touchy at times. Ken
