  1. Morning guys, Has anyone got a contact number for Adrian?
  2. So do you send your watch to Steve for the glass to be replaced? Anyone got his contact details?
  3. I'm looking to buy a planet ocean rep and I can't decide between a couple. They are on Trustytime, but I am a total noobie when it comes to rep watches, movements etc. Basically I want a nice looking watch that isn't going to fall apart, hence trusting a reputable seller on here. Now, I really like the look of this one, and at $118 it's the cheapest he has: http://www.trustytime.biz/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=35_114&products_id=16394 But I also like this one: http://www.trustytime.biz/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=35_114&products_id=16786 Now, it's double the price, but will I see any difference as a newbie with movement etc? I won't ever use the chrono features, but I do prefer them to a plain face
  4. I've not been on here for a while, are there any updates on the watch now it's on US soil?
  5. Well, I thought I would have a little fiddle with this while the back was off. Got myself an opened up paperclip and span the little cog round with the 4 posts on a few times. As if by magic, it's sprung into life.
  6. Yeah, I never use the chrono stuff anyways, but I do like the extra dials. Something about a plane faces watch I can't get to grips with. I think I might just go for it and skip this piece if junk.
  7. I paid less than £40 for it, which is why I didnt really want to spend much on it to repair it. If I was going to replace it, I really like the look of this one from Trusty http://trustytimestore.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=35_114&products_id=16394
  8. I bought this over a year ago and was switching between this and my U-boat rep, having not worn it for a month or so, I came to put it on but it doesn't seem to want to restart, despite some swinging left to right etc. It's automatic movement, but I couldn't tell you what type, probably some crappy chinese stuff. Are these prone to simply stopping, or do we think something has come lose? I don't want to get my [censored] felt by a local repair shop if it's something I could possibly sort myself. If it is the movement, is this something that can be swapped out for a replacement, or better, for fairly cheap? Thanks in advance guys, and please be gentle, I am a proper noob when it comes to this stuff 2018-06-15_08-08-13 by Phil Cookson, on Flickr 2018-06-15_08-15-36 by Phil Cookson, on Flickr 2018-06-15_08-16-03 by Phil Cookson, on Flickr 2018-06-15_08-16-11 by Phil Cookson, on Flickr
  9. You're right, it is. Everytime I Bent my wrist back it popped open, so I had to get a little screwdriver in to tighten up the grip. Unfortunately, it's stopped working completely too.
  10. I'm happy to take her for a run around Manchester
  11. The look like mozzarella sticks from McDonalds
  12. That blue of your shirt really makes the pink pop
  13. Where is the watch going next? Happy to accomodate in Manchester
  14. Oh this is just epic. I'm in Manchester UK and would happily sport this for some photographs. I have zero shame!!
  15. I've been wearing my Egypt bought U-Boat for around 7 years now, but it's had far too many bangs against walls, door handles etc, and the screen has cracked, so I recently replaced it with this Seamaster copy. Again, it's only going to come to an untimely end with me walking into things. But I wanted to pop on to see if it's actually a bad copy, or whether it's not that bad. Here are some pics. I appreciate the back panel says speed master, lol My old U-Boat
  16. My name is Phil and I'm from Manchester. Recently purchased a hooky Omega Seamaster Chrono and popped on to see just how bad it actually is.
