What stikes me here is that we have come all this way into the thread and we haven't looked at the probs yet.... (1) Watch doesn't keep time................does this mean watch has stopped or just running fast/slow? (2) Can't change date......Date is stuffed on watch or owner physically does not know how to operate date change? Ken

Yes we need a pic, there will be a very small button to push but we can't direct you without a pic. Ken

But of course, its just that here we do have a few rules that must be followed. Ken

No not us verses them...........the them by and large is us.........and a lot of them just posted here..........in fact most of them are just having fun. Ken

Ok Sweetie Pie one more slip up like that and you're gouing to have runny mascara

Yeah but why not in humour? Ken

7.30am Easter Sunday here in Melbourne, the wife and Daughter are both up and the easter hunt is about to begin so I will be signing off for a while. I realise that most of the world is still Saturday night but I just wanted to get the greeting done in case I don't get a chance to log on in time to catch everyone. Ken

You know guy's now I think I really will go off and have a sook Thank you all for your kind words..................I will continue to try and do my best for you guys and RWG Ken

@Thomas...............class act @Floris....................shuddup How is it that you were able to post this Thomas? Where I'm at I have to wait until next Tuesday or Wednesday before the post office is open again. Ken

Welcome to our board focker Spend time reading through this forum before you buy and you will be sure to get the watch of your dreams. Ken

Not really, its odds on you wont need to worry, but you should understand it can happen........never spend what you can't afford to lose, Ken

Customs is like a lucky dip in the big fairground of life, unfortunately we don't get hit often for tax in the land of Oz, more often if customs gets it you lose it. That said customs have never touched one of my parcels to date. Ken

I wanted to re-visit this thread after the hype had all died down, for two reasons. First to thank you Ethan for your kind words, you may not realise this but just by making this post you have continued the feeling of community that makes RWG such a great board. The second thing I wanted to get across is the reason for my gesture and that all boils down to Karma. We have a member from the old board (I wont name him) who is very big on Karma and believes strongly in the 'what goes around comes around' princple and for this reason he has been known on occassion to send a member a monogramed pen, the idea being to put the good vibes out there and help build the community feel to the board. So my story.........For those that don't know, around a month ago I suffered a serious back injury through work, which will need corrective surgery to fix, by all accounts this has been a major jolt to my and my families lifestyle and we are looking at around 2 years before I will be fit for work again and then it will be a very limited field of work that I will be capable of doing. Ok so how does this affect Floris, well two major points about my injury is the very long boring days and the very sudden drop in earnings to support my family, then in rolls RWG or more directly a member Alan (offshore) who has in fact sent me a great deal of watch supplies, parts and tools to set up a small watch repair gig (all cash only, thank you very much ) He followed that up by sending me a full working Briet to fiddle with and see if I can put it all together. So quite simply I have been branded with the good Karma from RWG and of course Alan and my wish was to continue this good feeling through to Floris. I do however understand now that I may have gone a little overboard but I am sure Floris will still like the watch I send him. Regards Ken

Well first off we are not taking donations for the missing RWG watch anymore as all those still requiring payment have in fact been paid we can now put that one away and move forward. I think the whole point about this situation with Floris is that it is not about Floris, yes he gains because the good at RWG have clicked into gear but its really a feel good thing for all involved Ken

Hey go for it Bill, you never know there may be a fair bit of pocket money in it for you. Ken

Well good to see you got here. Welcome to the new RWG Ken

Ha........we have a line that goes back to Scotland, in fact none other than Robbie Burns...........but we try to keep that in the closet Ken

Actually Steinhausen is what I thought I was reading and yes they do have many nice watches. Ken

Good man

Wow a very nice collection........congratulations and thanks for sharing In the very last photo the watch in the top left corner of the box, more info please. Thanks Ken

Aussie Aussie Aussie Oi Oi Oi.......................and some other stuff thrown in waaay back. Ken

A lot will depend on whether its worth spending the money to mod, yes I know it cost you $900 but it could still be a very cheap Canal street rep. To help you here we do need pic's and a good one would be of the movement. Ken

Yeah Kevin all dealers have been invited, its just that some are taking their time in coming. Ken

Kevin when you chat to Aaron don't forget to invite him to come to our board. Ken

Yeah but what I am saying is that if you are looking for who highjacked the account, that guy would be a good place to start. Ken
