JoJo, Fantastic watches. Examples such as yours and Freddy's posts made me realise that there's got to be more to this hobby than just buyng more and more ready to wear stuff. It's started me off down the modding road and vintage is the way to go. This post on RWG was my first encounter with a watch that gave me the horn! Here it is: Horny Watch My first project is underway and it's giving me a greater buzz then any out-of-the-box-super-rep will every do. I'd like to know what you did, your parts sources and, a little nosey I know, what you spent but then I'll understand if the master doesn't want to give away all his secrets too lightly. Nice one. KC

Gents, thanks for the advice - really appreciate it. I'm rather taken with Miquel's bezel and that minute marker-less white triangled insert in Freddy's 2nd post. I've seen posts on the forum explaining how to take apart, fix, put together etc but I guess I'll still need to bother you all for help at some stage. Here are 2 further photos showing the bracelet that it came with it. The second better shows the face which has a pleasant aging to it.

I wanted this from ND trading but at $3,800, my other half was going to make sure that I didn't live twice: So instead I got this MBK from Chris for a tenth of the price. Came with a nice riveted bracelet but I prefer it on the NATO. Am I happy? Yes indeed. Not sure what to do to it first - suggestions welcome but bear in mind I'm a virgin modder.

Just thought that I'd let you know what's happened to this one now that I've had it over a year. Well, in short, nothing. It still works perfectly. I wear it 5 days a week to work. It never gains or loses time. I haven't needed to service or repair it. It's been dropped on the floor twice but hasn't picked up any dings. I am so pleased with this. Yours, touching a big bit of wood, KC

And if you want to see how Rolex can bugger up a decent watch, rob it of soul and cast misery upon it's owner, take a look at this sad story: Here

That's amazing. I was sat here using CS2 and thinking what more could they add to this package. Now I see this new feature in CS4 and I want to upgrade. I see PC users can get it for $20 BARGAIN - I just need to lay my hands on a Mac version...

For what it's worth, I've just noticed the difference between the 2 listings (apart from opening price). You probably got there long ago. Original listing: I have owned the watch for around five years. The previous owner stated it was found at the bottom of Portland Harbour, Dorset, (where the Royal Navy had a base until the 1990's) during a dive. Revised listing: I have owned the watch for around five years after it was handed down to me.

That sale has ended but the item has been relisted HERE Can't immediately see any differences between old & new. Same tired photos and no images of the guts.

What's the final price going to be? See HERE Interesting history and lots of bidder questions.

Guys, Thanks for your help.

Been getting emails from www.shopccc.com Wifey drools over the non-watch stuff - especially the bags. Has anyone used this company? I'd be really grateful for some feedback. Thanks.

Bonas dias

Hi Godfrey

Noel, Thanks for the info. Now I need one too. Narikaa! KC

I think that looks great and wouldn't mind one for myself. How wide is it?
