  1. Simply stunning ! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. That's an amazing tip --- it works perfect on the breitling I am wearing today ... I can't believe I never tried that !!! I always though you open from same end as clasp !!!! Made my day - thank you. !!! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. Hi there I like most seem to be waiting for the new super Navitimer update that josh/Andrew are apparently working on In my limited experience , this offering from Kuvarsit seems to be pretty good dont it ? Or am i missing something ? http://www.kuvarsit.com/index.php?dispatch=products.view&product_id=30450
  4. I got this from trusty time BSW0108B - Chronomat B01 SS/SS Black Roman A-7750 28800bph $298.00
  5. Got this day before yesterday have not stopped grinning Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. :-) sunken date aside - gorgeous ! In some ways I wish I never learnt about sunken dates ... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Thx for replying ... I'm kinda reluctant to spend $300 on a watch with silix if PC or TT are offering superior reps at that price
  8. Hi I am a pretty new to this I have bought from silix perfect clones and trusty The later two do always seem to be so much more expensive than silix What's the deal ? Are silix high end reps inferior to josh and Andrew ? If I am asking a question that gets asked over and over please nuke Steve
  9. I am new to this ; well I only have a dozen watches so I am in the embryonic stages of collecting :-) I REALY want a Navitimer rep ; does this news mean that the current top spec Navitimer is not worth getting ; as far as I can tell from reading the main issue seems to just be around a sunken date ? Thx Steve
  10. thx all , so I am posting it back as requested .... I am happy now .... I was frustrated as the problem would not be acknowledged ... QC pics are well and good but they don't show everything !
  11. Thanks ; I will send it back ; as I said the TD is willing to help ; just won't accept or agree that it's wrong. I find this very frustrating but will just return it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. Ooops sorry for the edit I cannot seem to get the TD to acknowledge there is an issue - says the QC pics show all is ok
  13. it was $180 I don't know if this is the correct way to seek help on this kind of issue The TD is now stating that the QC pics showed all was ok ? this is tosh as the QC pics would not show this ... Im not going mad am I - this is clearly wrong ? IMG_4047.MOV-1.mov
  14. Hi there I have bought a watch from a TD - the end links are obviously incorrect as the movement between the end link and first link of the bracelet is so restricted that there is little to no movement Is it very obviously a problem and I have been sending pictures back and forth all morning. it has taken about 20 emails for them to acknowledge there is a issue The TD has requested I return the watch at MY expense is the normal practise ? for me to pay for a return for faulty goods at my expense ?
  15. Here is the end link : it's just flat ; I would have expected to have some shape to it ? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  16. Ahh thank you for the pic . well I disconnected the strap , and it seems the profile of the end link prohibits that much movement .... :-(

  18. Hi Today I got my 297 rep on a new SS strap I have really small wrists and the end links seem to have no movement on them at all making the watch even taller !!! Is this lack of movement normal ? Every other watch this end link would move almost 90 degrees ? Please help Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  19. I share the same sentiment ; if it isn't the right strap it should not be on there ! So I will leave as is ; I guess I was hoping that maybe there was some crossover Perfect excuse to buy a gmt ii I think !!!
  20. Thanks for replying .. I cannot get my finger in there at all !!!! Discovered another problem with the bracelet - see pic. It's only a quartz rep - good enough for me at the moment as I will get the new navitimer rep that's supposed to be coming in a few months Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. Hi all This is a breitling navitimer rep with a screw together 7 link bracelet I am having a real hard time opening the clasp ; is it supposed to be that small a gap ? There is no way I get could my finger tip anywhere near the buckle to open it ; so I have to pull it open from the sides .. I know it's a bit garbled what I wrote but I hope it makes some sense :-) Steve Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. So I am very new to this hobby . only a couple of months in .... bought about 10 watches straight off - Faux Chrono jobbies / Quartz reps - all sub $110 watches .... Now I am selling them off and already ordering $250 - $300 watches !!! at first I thought, oh well there cheap enough its just a bit of fun .... and now its .... oooo I like that lume ...... ooo those hands look better ---- ooo that strap is much nicer ..... .. oh dear ........... time to start hiding things :-) Familiar story Im sure !! Brilliant Brilliant forum here ... Good work all !! Steve
  23. Hello ... I have a GMT with a blue/red bezel ... and the strap has exposed fine adjustments on the clasp I notice than later watches ( not necessary GMT ) have straps with hidden fine adjustment holes Would a GMT have ever had this strap ? I much prefer the hidden holes .... S
  24. Hi all On web sites like silix they advertise economy and better quality watches .... I understand about movements but was wondering generally ,,,,, would say a $110 watch have the same case and strap as a $300 watch ? or is the difference purely the movement / working chromo etc etc Thank you S
  25. HI there I am new here, done a lot of reading, and decided to go with Silix Prime as my TD In just a couple of months I know have 12 watches :-) I would like to sell on 4 of them as they are just not quite what I had in mind and as such are unworn... What would be the best thing to do ? there are only cheap watches, so hoping to find someone in the UK that might want to buy them for What I paid less £10 - £15 or something like that Please help ? I just don't know the best way to go about selling them I have 2 Rolex , 1 Breitling and 1 Tag Thanks Steve
