Victoria

You're lucky she didn't find a photo of mine addressed to "To (Jfreeman), with love from Victoria". That almost caused a divorce in one of my friends' lives, once! More like bushy-tailed earnest helpfulness. I stick to being affable and informative on RWG...

If I were his wife, I'd be concerned that muzzle is so close to his family jewels! Oh wait. Men like that usually don't have wives...

Jolly joker, Offshore. You'll confuse the lad! Dadog, in forums it means "No Text". Basically, the reply is the title, and there is no text in the message itself. Used to save time in clicking on posts with no messages. It works best in sequential forums like Risti and TZ.

Jfreeman kindly hyperlinked to it above. Thanks though. (My torrent was for those who want to see the full HD-episode. All you James Bond nuts out there, and we are legion)

Martin, what is a nice Weaner boy like you doing in Dubai? (Just kidding, don't worry, I'm not prying) Do you remember that thread where someone was travelling to the Middle East? Wanted to know if he could wear a rep watch -- I remember it well because of the exchange you and I had. One of the people who replied was from the UAE -- fellow member, Upirons. http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?s=&amp...st&p=343563 Perhaps you can try to PM him. If he's not your age, maybe he knows people who are. BTW, don't feel bad if you want someone your age around you. It's not about age exactly. It's about circumstances. Most people in the Middle East are married at 30 and beyond. I too like to surround myself with people my age -- I'm 7 years your senior. Very coincidentally, since she is shown in my new avatar..., I have a cousin in Dubai doing research. She's 23 but engaged to an American.

That's the best 112 (of whatever series) I've ever seen. It looks gen. My only concern for you, Asad, is the money. Yes, it's worth it due to the mods, but ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS for a rep Panerai? If you save some more, you can get a used gen... But I guess you have gotten a lot of these replies, so let me just say, unless Verbal Kint is on to something about the seller, buy it.

When I played tennis but particularly golf, I used to get callouses just there on my ungloved left hand (I swing lefty, though I write righty). Editted. Nice peak at your collection and Seiko Mostro, Slai! P.S.: I'm not going to be power-lifting, obviously. I'm going for a full cardio workout, and easy does it in the beginning -- I'm no gym rat like you guys! My goal is to shed the stone I gained last year, so that I can go back to tennis particularly. It's my great sporting love.

I can't believe I missed that either. I never miss Mythbusters. EDIT BEFORE POSTING: Ahh! The James Bond special. If it's okay with the Mods, here is the HD-TV torrent to watch it. If not, please delete! http://www.torrentportal.com/details/16649...FQM.avi.torrent Part 2 of the James Bond special will be on Wednesday 6th February 2008.

What a great photo! I'm guessing this is the replacement Jay sent you, which looks great on that fancy Bob strap. Since I'm replying separately, this is what I wrote earlier: @Demonslayer: You won't regret it! The PAM 113s are very elegant, versatile. @Sql_pl: I think Ola will look FANTASTIC with this PAM 113! Goes great with "ladylike" strap colours --> white Taikonaut Kangaroo.

Fittingly perhaps. The British girl got the last British Tan. Good to see that you have a similar one though, Savage. I have wanted to get another for the Fiddy, and at least the forum knows you have one. Anything else new hide-wise? I'm thinking of getting something from you and Tootall soon. @Sav below: "Informative" rating. Thanks!

Actually, Tech, I was using the Yellow Sport Walkman (with cassette tape and radio!) in the LATE LATE 90s! Mine was the digital version: I did have the Madonna half-gloves when I was a little girl and posters of Bros on my wall, though.

Oh, I didn't see this reply before, Madasboot. Okay, update. I've had enough of the itching, scratching, and ugly red band around my wrist. I finally gulped air, and applied clear nail polish to my PAM deployant a few hours ago. No itching, no scratching...I think it works, people! I used Sally Hansen "Dries Instantly" nail varnish. U$4.99 at CVS. (And no more Cape Cod cloths for me)

Oh dear. I was expecting a slideshow with Puerto Rican girls' nails. That was cool though.

WEEKEND WRISTCHECK Don't have my rotation all planned out, nice and neat for you. So, I'll just show you what I have in mind for the next 3 days. Ready? Andrew PAM 113 on a Bob Ostrich deployant strap. TeeJay and I are in agreement: ostrich straps are a bit gross. It's okay on the white-dial PAM though. Wonder what Dave123 thinks, since he was wearing the ostrich on his Fiddy. Preview of my D-ring grosgrain pink-and-green Preppy strap. A bit of whimsy. Mmm. Why I love living in South Florida -- Cuban steak, white rice, black beans and my Raimondo68 HBB RG. You could feed an army with that steak. Group shot! ...hope you liked. HAGWE!

No way! One is the Savage British tan. A beauty which Savage made for me (I had planned to feature it in my last Great Panerai Strap Caper). He said I got the last one, because he ran out of hide. Great to see he's got more. The last one...looks like a Micah? It's very nice either way, CT. You've got great taste, and that's because it's the same as mine. EDIT: The Brindle, oh very nice. Not very popular, and that's a GOOD thing. Like Micah's Pale Rider, he's only ever made two and one is mine!

Aww. Well, since RWG is a little slow, I won't do one of those "@Pix" followups I have been doing because the ratings were taken out. A full reply instead! (Well, one to @TMG: Nice new Tudor! And one to @Maximilian: I didn't even know you had a 177, you rascal) Astonishing! For a second, it looked like you posed outside of Les Deux Magots at night. Ahh, the Swiss. So clean, so correct. No Hello Kitty ladies there...

A very chic, Parisian photo! I'm glad I checked the Wristies again, since my eyes scanned over it the first time. (I also find your "smart Sub" reference astute, Pix)

Don't you find these quick turnarounds ...suspicious? Except for a present or needing the money suddenly, I can't imagine selling a watch just after buying it, since presumably if I've plunked down $$$, I made sure I tried it on several times, and that it was "me". Did that ever happen to you, Chrgod/guys? I'm talking gens.

Good one! Thanks for the effort. Is this a C-1 PAM 005? Oh, and I forgot to ask -- from whom did you buy it? Josh? @Golfman: I'm guessing Lowlands means he's Flemish, and therefore Richyman was very elegant to use French to you given the rivalries. @Richyman: Ah, cool. An educated Dutch dude. @Golfman followup: ZING! Hehe.

Hey Dave! Fancy seeing you around here. Welcome. Bubonic Plague 127. Oh boy! You mean the ostrich strap?

Nice one, Southcoast! "his is not unusual as you already know I have seen at least 30-40 of these models (without COMEX on the dial) over time..." So I guess my neighbour, who was a professional diver in his youth, and who told me his was a real COMEX Rolex was right. Any (ex-)professional divers on RWG?

"...muscle car trying to make up for a small wiener?" Yeah, I heard that too. Actually, both Parties have rather unsavoury sexual reputations. DEMOCRATS REPUBLICANS I don't think I want to be either an effete liberal dressed like a giant condom. Or an old dude in a Speedo, popping boner pills.

That's a good deduction, Star! Not partaking in the special, it didn't even occur to me.

I'm bumping this thread, as the holiday approaches. I also just read a post by my beloved collector, Paul, where he states: "Holiday start Feb 3 to Feb 15." Not sure if that's China-wide, or just him, but that's more than a week. Given EMS' non-holiday problems, I fear placing orders during this time. Do packages just not get posted, or do they sit in a warehouse until the reveries are over?

Aww, man no way. The post has been flagged for removal, and the pics of the Vagina Sofa are gone. Some people are so square. I bet you they shop at Ethan Allen. EDIT 18 Jan: Someone saved a photo.
