  1. Hi i don't know if this has been discussed before but i am kind of confused.. i have 2 watches coming from china.. and in the ems site the tracking system hasn't been updated since the watch has been sent.. however in the australian post website it says that the item has arrived in melbourne.. waiting for it to go to adelaide.. is this normal? and if so which one is correct? because this is unusual for me.. as normally before arriving into australia.. it would normally say "dispatched from china" this time in the site it just says "arrival at sorting centres" then "arrived in melbourne custom and awaiting clearance"... so yeh i'm not sure why :\

  2. Hee hee :D If I spend to much on her, my fiance gets jealous :D To be honest, I don't think she was over keen on the Chanel J12, but abolutely loved the Big Bang Aspen when I showed it to her on the computer to see if she thought my fiance would like one, her reaction was enough to promise her one as a birthday present :)

    lol thats ok then :).. let me know how she likes it :p.. im atm is looking for a watch for my gf anyway.. but until now still dunno wat to get her

  3. nooooo, i love the heavy bracelet.... i hope i can replace the spring bars and have it work fine...

    so its just 22mm spring bars? do i have to look for a certian thickness ?

    yeah its normal 22mm spring bars.. the thickness i don't know.. sometimes if u use a thinner one the watch will move around.. so if u go to a normal watch repairer (those ones that does bracelet resizing and battery change).. they might be able to sell it to u for maybe $2.. if u have the GUTS! like my friend with his datejust replica.. go to an AD and they'll replace it for u for free.. eventhough i don't recommend you to do the second one.. because ull be hated in this board if u do it :p heheheh joke.. i wish i was a vip member!! :@ i hate being an apprentice but i dont have paypal! :(

  4. she just emailed me that i should have tracking number soon. :thumbsupsmileyanim:

    lol YAY! i had my trackings for 2 days now.. and it said that items have been lodged.. but normally by the same day.. it gets dispatched from the sorting centres.. for some reason mine hasn't updated for 2 days.. so i guess this'll be one of those 1 month delivery thing.. until today my watches have arrived within 3-5 days.. but ill tell u wat i guess we have to go through this..

    my first order was perfect...

    2nd order the watch was broken

    3rd order were perfect

    4th one is now.. i just hope it doesnt get hold by custom as this time i have 2 watches on the way :S..

    and believe me ive spent more than 1500$ the last 1 month.. not good i tell u!!!

  5. I did indeed, I've got a feeling that's how she'll look in a few years... I'm sure Cait wouldn't mind me re-posting one of her 'MySpace-style' pics...

    If I was to spend too much money on her, my fiance would get jealous :p Besides, joking asside, I've actually had better time-keeping results with Asian movements rather than Swiss ETA. Also, as far as I know, the rep is only available with Asian movement... :D

    my goodness! she deserves more than 35 pounds :p chanel j12 at least!!! hahah joke..

  6. There have been a lot of posts about King being absent recently, including one from Joshua:

    "King is attending to some family matters.. cut her some slack.. She will get back to you.."

    Which is all very well, but if she doesn't tell you this, how are you supposed to know?

    lol yeh thats alright.. but she has picked up my money and she's been answering all emails until today.. i mean im not complaining since king did really deliver very quick last time.. i can wait.. but is she ok tho?

  7. yeh i guess not.. i mean king has replied everyday at around 5 pm everyday.. until yesterday when i sent her the money.. i mean from WU it says that shes picked up the money.. but she didn't reply to my email anymore nor did she give me the tracking.. ive bought from her before she has been very reliable so far.. but from wat im hearing from you guys now.. i mean i dont know *shrugs* i hope this time it wont be 3 weeks :S

  8. Thanks for the kind words, folks. Sorry I've not been replying but I'm just back from holiday. Anyway, the date-wheel change how-to is about to get started as the donor watch has arrived. It'll explain everything anyone wants to know about changing the wheels.

    As for strap size, I think it's 21mm. I got my watch from Precious Time and he supplied it with the brown strap. He does it with a black one too, so ask him about the straps. I'm sure he'll sell them separately.

    And yes, it's a beauty.

    thanks pugwash.. the guide would be very helpful.. actually i just bought the same watch today :)

  9. Thanks for the reassurance :)

    As tempting as it would be to say she's a sweaty, fat skank, the truth is she's very attractive, and will likely look something like Anne Hathaway in a few years :D She doesn't drive, but indeed, the family is 'comfortable'... Not mega rich, but certainly not begging for change either. As above, thanks for the reassurance that the watch would either go un-noticed, or not appear unrealistic :)

    I know what you mean there, and would likely follow your advice, but when she saw the watch on the screen, and was hyper-excited about getting one, so it'd be mean not to follow through with that having promised her one...

    did u say anne hathaway? :o.. and ur only gonna give her a 35 pounds rep :o.. u should get her something with swiss eta in it :p heeheheh
