  1. man if you weren't a busy hermit we could have a peek at those in person when they came through. Just giving you a hard time man. Hope the heavily wrapped holiday boxes land safely under the mistletoe, Jacques Cousteau.
  2. Left to right, Tag Link Calibre 6 POrikka SFSO w/ gen nickle ETA & Skyland V3 Milgauss (sold) Vintage Omega Seamaster (not pictured) Pam 177H ETA 16610 Sub
  3. hmm.. I know Gio is anti-cape cod, but its very standard practice to use these in the watch world. Politely have to agree to disagree with you Gio. Do they leave fine swirl? sure. Is a bench grinder with polishing wheels and jewler rouge better? Sure. Not always necessary though for some people. In my experience, the cape cod cloth restores polished surfaces enough for my liking. Enough for my gen TAG bezel. Heres a pic right after I gave it a quick polish. That being said, the black txt is definitely not safe during a scrubbing with cape cod. Pick up a little bottle of black gloss enamel paint from a hobby shop. The kind used to build scale models. Thin it out a little if necessary and use capilary action to refill any of the numbers, surely this will have to be done someday anyway.
  4. I thought I was losing my mind. Just looked like it in some pics, this one had me Glad to know its passed the test R. Beautiful 28lb watch you have there.
  5. Brilliant review Lani, your photography gets better and better, as if thats even possible. Am I the only one though, thats noticed the missing paint in the gas ring letters?
  6. I'm pretty sure I saw black paint missing from the escape ring on Lanikais new DSSD from Josh.
  7. Internet bans would be funny. Unable to use the internet anymore without doing dial-up from a spliced payphone in some nordic country, spoofing IP addresses behind $10k worth of firewalls and proxys in a clean room wearing a radar deflective jumpsuit. Would basically brick that new Windows7 Laptop eh xslyyx.
  8. so slyxx, what do you plan to do since you shipped the watch with no insurance, tracking, or guarantee that it arrives? You shipping on a wing and a prayer is not Marina's fault.
  9. Awesome watch and pics Mubeen. Thanks for sharing, hope to see you stick around the boards!
  10. Nicolas Cage, eh? A rep is a rep is a rep. Aside from Ubi-fying the hell out of a 4th gen UPO (which isn't even produced anymore) to the tune of close-to preowned gen, then you are bound to have a few flaws. For the fit, finish, price, etc.. This is "Rep of the Year" in terms of satisfaction and value. Getting to deal with Reg, a bonus in itself! Your pics aren't bad at all, and I'm digging that Omega vase. With your ability to snap clear shots, all you need is a nice big piece of white posterboard for a backdrop. like so-
  11. This thread has officially overtaken the "do not post here" thread! Take THAT! TT!
  12. neck and neck race between this thread and the word association thread has begun!
  13. Avitt! Who says you can borrow pictures of my Nissan engine!? Took a little work shoehorning it under the hood of my Sentra, but VRMM VRMM!
  14. $10 says the leather strap feels like it came from a charm machine and smells like back alley ass chemicals.
  15. Interesting foray into DG swapping. I know exactly how you feel. swap one thing to make it fit, another thing doesnt fit anymore. Very aggrivating. Eurotimez mvmts are direct swaps that beat @ 28,800, right?
  16. Great shot of that Graham, church.
  17. Think thats bad, you should see the sewing machine..
  18. lol thogaa thats hysterical. I don't think you can go wrong with the SA my friend. U drunk dialed yourself right into a 10. Albeit a 10, that needs a $200 movement servicing as soon as you get it. Pretty usually is high maintenance though.
  19. Thats a great site to kill a morning and a cup of coffee over. I'm at work right now, so I had to close it down to get things done.
  20. I knew these Deepsea's were going to grow on me. Pics from Z always push me over the edge.
