  1. Well so much for my "break" from buying watches! I'll take one right after I buy this watch.
  2. Crown Royal w/Ginger Ale
  3. I am appalled! Who you calling established?
  4. I tell them to sod off!
  5. Very nice! I did all those mods and then some to my PO and while I did spend a TON of money, you are correct, this way is more satisfying. Enjoy it.
  6. Nice watch but that isn't the MBK (also known as MBW). You can tell from the dial. The MBK version has a "grid" type design while all the rest have "dots" or "ticks". The MBK will set you back at least $450 USD if not more. You want to look for this dial, pic borrowed from TTK who can get you one.
  7. Stephane bought one of the MBW's but decided to sell it immediately. Not sure if he still has it or not. Be warned it is not one of the cheaper reps.
  8. This used to be a HOT topic. This was my take on it last year. Remember this is only my opinion. None of them are "accurate". The MBW Jumbo is a fantasy watch based on the 3700/3800 and a little bit of the 5711 some people say. The 3700 was the only jumbo but it had no seconds hand. The 3800 has the seconds hand but it's a smaller watch. The 5711 is similiar to the 3800. While the dial on the Non-MBW watches appear to be more accurate, there is no dot at the 3 o'clock on the gens. Also the 3700 was marked O SWISS O and the 5711 SWISS. Rumors abound that a dial exactly like those on the MBW was really made but the watch was never released. The allure to the MBW version is the quality and it is a rep that has been copied. At some point it may become the holy grail of the reps and become harder to acquire. I have the MBW version and plan on having the seconds hand removed to make it that much closer to the 3700. Regarding the dial on the MBW version, PP made custom watches in the 70's. For what you paid, you got whatever the hell you wanted.
  9. Actually the apartment belongs to one of the Olson twins, and he and Michelle never married. Nevertheless, a sad tragedy.
  10. This is a good first time post. You know what you want which is half the battle. Take a look around the "collectors" section and you will find more information. Some collectors have websites, some do not.
  11. So what, it still sucked. The only camcorder on the planet that was dropped too many times to count, even got chomped on by the monster and never failed. Give me a damn break. And my personal favorite, they give said super camera to the idiot of the group and he does EVERYTHING one handed because he's forever got this camera in the other hand. Even pulling his buddy to safety he does one handed. What a pal. EDIT: Oh and the camera survives a nuclear blast...I have got to get me one of those!!! What a shitty movie.
  12. We left early because my wife thought she was having a seizure, hence the refund.
  13. Well put my friend. I'm hoping we can one day get a rep of that indestructable camcorder with the unlimited battery life.
  14. Save your money!!!!! Don't do it!!!!! Wait till it's released on DVD, then let someone else buy it and you borrow it! Without spoiling it for those that want to see the movie due to the hype, like yours truly, I demanded and was granted a refund at the end of the movie.
  15. Without a strong rhyme to step to Think of how many weak shows you slept through Time's up, I'm sorry I kept you Thinking of this, you keep repeating you miss The rhymes from the microphone soloist And you sit by the radio, hand on the dial, soon As you hear it, pump up the volume Dance wit the speaker 'till you hear it blow, Then plug in the headphone 'cause here it go It's a 4 letter word when it's heard, it control your body to dance (You got it) soul, Ditects the tempo like a red alert Reaches your reflex, so let it work When this is playing, you can't get stuck wit The steps, so get set and I'm a still come up wit A gift to be swift, follow the leader, the rhyme will go Def wit the record that was mixed a long time ago It can be done but only I can do it For those that can dance and clap your hands to it I start to think and then I sink Into the paper like I was ink When I'm writing, I'm trapped in between the lines, I escape when I finish the rhyme... I got soul Welcome back yo
  16. Grade A huh? Some may disagree with me but I think the only "Grade A" would be the genuine article.
  17. Nothing at all. I take off any watch I'm wearing, gen or rep and my wedding ring when I work out. The only "time" I'm interested in when working out is the time on the machine I'm on. It counts down and I stare at it the whole time.
  18. You mean his company's budget. Safe travels, check out some AD's if you have any time to take in sights.
  19. Thanks zig. Have your better half send me a copy of the new .pdf if you don't mind. Also it may be time to change the email address. ATTN ALL members: The Zigmeister's email information is NOT to be given out. Unless The Zigmeister gives it to you himself you don't get it.

  21. Here it is in somewhat English.. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...y0%3D%26fvi%3D1
  22. These are some fine pics. I wish I could show off my ZPO like this. Wear it well.
  23. That would be an interesting comparison. I have a VCO and an Ingy both with factory AR, and I find the VCO is too much and the Ingy is too little. Neither are like my UPO which has a gen crystal. The AR on the UPO gives off VERY little blue tint if any at all. I am looking forward to seeing the results of this run and will probably have both the VCO and Ingy stripped and re-done by chief. They need to be serviced anyway.
  24. Looking forward to the finished product.
