I notice you said 'used to be' a Breitling dealer. A friend of mine owns a jewelry store and he doesn't know the first thing about watches, or jewelry for that matter, he simply bought the shop and is learning as he goes. If the store expert that looked at your watch is not a Breit man but just a guy who knows a bit about watches then it's a good chance he will say the same about every second hand brand name watch he sees.

I think the more important issue here is that Senate just voted down back ground checks for gun buyers that 90% of Americans support. It is a real digging attempt to try and turn some blame on the President. No it was not edited it actually states..."and the murder of 20 innocent schoolchildren and their teachers" Ken

Just as a footnote I have now read the full transcript of Obama's speech and he clearly states "and the murder of 20 innocent schoolchildren" Ken

sorry I don't want to go there either, the fact is everyone outside the US do in fact think he is a great leader. Ken

Ok we have had the gun control debates so lets not go there again. Ken PS, although he might be considered a slip I am pretty sure Obama would have meant 20 innocent children.

Just for the record I was a dealer on TRC and a founding moderator of this board. When the decision was made to make TRC a read only forum, which made it neccessary to move my business here, I offered to stand down as a moderator but the team vetoed that on the grounds they felt I could conduct myself fairly and in an unbiased way. If anyone believes that is not the case I will be glad to hear why the think so. Ken

Actually HK explains a lot, many there know a great deal about both gen and rep. Even though you may be selling your reps I hope you will still pop in from time to time. Cheers Ken

This is the 3rd time you have tried to attack me on the open forum Carl, both other times I asked you to contact me via PM and let me know exactly what you are referring too. Obviously something has upset you but just as obviously you have taken something way out of context because I have absolutely no recollection of any clash with you at all. Now my offer is still out there to contact me and sort the issue rationally but I will not continue to let a smear campaign go on unchecked. Ken

I tend to watch a lot of foreign movies on SBS as my wife usually goes to sleep long before me so I can turn the sound off and read the subtitles. I have seen 'Tell No one' and yes it is a good movie. I find there are some real gems, yes you do have to sort through a lot of flimsy stuff, in the Bollywood movies. One I really enjoyed was Mohabbatein, a bit of a tear jerker but beautifully acted and filmed. Ken

I see nothing wrong with the above quote. He has simply stated that he shipped the screws and , like all dealers, he has no control over the postal system. Ken

That would put you about the same distance from the CBD as me opti. Ken

I'm in Ken

so I took a quick look and the Dutch site claims ETA 2836-2 Now I'm no expert but Joshua's looks better to me.... http://www.1-pc8838.com/rlss00028-114060-2012-nodate-p-13580.html and he is 20 bucks cheaper. Ken

Totally off topic.....Hey there Nikki6, hope you are doing well. Ken

Hey I got a life! I just can't remember where I put it Ken

Yes Lani is sorely missed but I get the impression through FB that he has moved onto other areas in his life that are far more important and so we should all just wish him well and hope he pops in from time to time. Ken

@vmarks I think he meant me Yes there has been a few days of public holidays in China, we are back at work now but playing catch up so please be patient. Cheers Ken

what really grabs me is that the case is listed as Vintage 1971 to 1983 I have a couple of problems with this 1. When you do get the extremely rare item that is worth a fortune it is a one off year, like the 1930 penny and it's value is due to the lack of availability. No way can you give a 12 year spread like that. 2. I would have thought Vintage was pre 70's? Ken

don't forget Nanuq that in Hawaii there is no need to don the full thermal wetsuit to go swiming. Ken

Well as LK points out it does have a correct Chinese name but they call it Tomb Sweeping so the western world understands. Ken

Just to let everyone know this holiday means that no orders can ship until the coming Sunday. I will still take orders if you want to submit them, otherwise see you on Sunday. Thank you Ken

It amazes me the lengths people will go to when trying to save a dollar or two. The 6 watch case listed above is $110 USD plus $30 to $40 shipping. So what you get is a basic case, no QC, no guarantee of delivery, no after sales service if there is an issue for approx $150 On the other hand you could get this beautiful walnut 8 watch case for $195 delivered with guaranteed delivery, professional QC and after sales service....go figure Honestly every time someone has a grand plan to get better prices than Bergies they never factor in all the benefits I offer. Ken

You too buddy Ken

Just a quick shout to let everyone know that 'She who must be obeyed' has informed me that it is my best interest not to work for the couple of days before Easter I gotta do a thing called family activities. Ken
