  1. OK cant sleep I am off to Guangzhou soon Heres a little teaser for you all....... Go to http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showto...t=0#entry299858 'What's For Dinner' thread and see my post First to correctly post here in this thread the answers to these two questions will get a free watch shipped to them 1) What are the two items missing from the photo (according to the description)? & 2) What is wrong with the main dish (again according to the description)? .
  2. Som Tam Thai, Prik haa met, Khow nieow duai, pak jaan nung, Gai yang noy Aroy tee sud!!! .
  3. One regret I have is in not buying the seagull movement skeleton tourbillon in gold with power reserve I saw early last year (Badged up as Breguet)....I dithered, when I went back to buy.....gone! .
  4. Must have poor imaginative powers Take a trip down any western high street and watch it happen with virtually every purchase. .
  5. Hi my name's Rip Van Winkle and Ive been asleep for 100s of years Well I just saw a news programme showing Arabs and Jews killing each other Why is this? I know if I bothered to read about it all would probably become clear But I just thought someone could spoon feed me all the details instead .
  6. And by that rationale.... You must think a tawdry SS Rolex equates to 'elaborate jewelry', 'excess spending and ostentation' Shurelyyyy not
  7. Sorry I thought English was the language of choice on this forum Dictionary.com Unabridged (v 1.1) - Cite This Source ox
  8. BLING with NO Gold or Diamonds Oxymoron .
  9. The days of p**s poor gold plate on reps is thankfully behind us (provided you purchase in reputable quarters!). However the thread initiator is correct there exists a proclivity for steel models. But You need to be very careful making assumptions about reps due to perceived popularity...as the great underswell of opinion rises no higher than the pursuit of the 'perfect sub'. This is most likely due to the dire insecurity of these people (If the psudo personna being invented aspires to the 'lofty heights' ofownership of a megre Rolex sub....and the abject psychological terror of being discovered as the onwer of a fake drives them ever onward in pursuit of the 'outting proof' version), so the likelihood of them ever wearing gold when swimming in such a repressive little pond is slim to zero. .
  10. A bit of 'retail therapy' had me indulge in a little 'comfort shopping' yesterday Bought myself this: Pondered over the options for a while Black Face / Black Strap, White Face / Brown Strap, Numerals or Batons, but this was my final choice. So my current daily beater tourbillon gets relegated Only Joking !!!! Its of to a well earned rest in the big steel box So may be a new Breitling boxset when Im in GZ next week :cc_chinese: .
  11. I wonder how well you would fare sitting in a Guangzhou garret on subsistance wages attempting to spell out some Cantonese text with microscopic gold stickers....any better d'ya reckon? Fortunately the simple solution to these typos is a quick case back removal and a peel off off the offending stickers. .
  12. ahemm just like I told you, yes
  13. Yep good, but in the vast realms of Chinese spelling mistakes on reps..........hardly worth a mention!
  14. Which probably accounts for why the human race has proliferated so wildly .
  15. I would not go ANYWHERE NEAR that gold with a Cape Cod cloth.....unless whoever suggested it will replace the watch when the 'Cod has removed all the Gold Plate. Try an ordinary pencil eraser first (you know the white rubber thingie for correcting pencil marks on paper). I also have some Chinese powder used extensively out there for just such problems Good luck! .
  16. Yes a very rare and fortunately seldom seen condition unlike the new superbug exclusively affecting ALL Noobmariners NSD (No Speaky Disease) Symptoms are: no comms, and proliferating 'weres my watch' threads
  17. Nymphomariners are the self same watch as all cognoscenti recognise......the only difference being Nymphos come quicker and come with email answers.
  18. Me neither!!
  19. Many thanks one and all for the kind words and wishes, they are appreciated. Couple more days in Thailand and then its a return trip to the UK for the funeral. Once again thanks.
  20. DISGUSTING Only joking LET ME KNOW WHEN YOU WANT TO SELL IT ! .
  21. PENS PHOTOS
  22. Smallest in world.....[censored]!!! Many (much smaller) RC Helos on sale in Far East Heres one I picked up for
  23. Jeees........ If you like it, buy it I have one (In Audemars Piguet incarnation) worn it all over the planet... took no special care of it as a daily beater...no problemo. Incidentaly its the ONLY watch type that actually draws admiration and praise in the Far East And although I can lay hands on them a tad cheaper than suggested here they are a great buy at these prices.
  24. And much of it shuts before then...... also pray that the newspapers arnt up if you do get there. .
