Watchmeister

I did speak with him about it. He is absolutely open-minded and was very pleased to hear admin is the moderator and who some of the mods are. At least for now, he is very busy with other good things in his life and we wish him nothing but the best.

Or perhaps in Johnny Mnemonic with the Dolphin controlling the rebel transmission system.

That term belongs in the fabulously classic B movie - Hackers - Hack the Planet!

Time to buy new digital SLR. D-70 versus equivalent Canon ???. Which one will be easier for me to get good watch pictures from? I am even getting inspired to try and build a light box.

Could be time to start posting smilies. And thus it begins.

Postissimus Maximus I am still the only one on any forum (other than the master himself) to meet Jetmid's father. And you think I am kidding. Let's see - at 25 per day - 4 days per 100 - 40 days per 1,000-80 days to Powermax. Not fast enough.

How about - we want to get laid. Expensive watch = money to burn = you should sleep with me. How many people can tell the difference between a $1,000 or $3,000 suit? Fancy watch - never missed. Just remember every part of a man's being relates to getting laid. Or if you can't because you are happily married, having that woman in the bar look longingly at you does wonders for the ego. Just remember - Little Ethan always comes first. Not very philosophical but it all goes back to the caveman. Oh, and we do love watches and their little intricacies too. Just kidding (somewhat).

Get outta here!

I wouldn't mind the post count either. Love the avatar - nice side view of the Sub.

Nice glow.

Great collection. But you are missing one or two of your best ones.

Beautiful collection.

Hey, we missed St Paddys

What took you so long? Oh yeah, nice watch.

I am going to have to remember that "reverse squid proxy" thing. I have no idea what it means but I will definitely recite it to the tech guy who takes care of the computers in the office. He was actually one of the early on successful hackers.

I would have guessed the first picture was of Amelia Earhart. Am I right? Finepics, what took you so long?

Great work by all. Joe, I am sure having the proper font on the date wheel will make it more apparent what the right answer is. It appears that the laws of refraction are not serving our purpose (or we can't measure) Am I correct in assuming that we may have to get made exactly what we want as there is too much variance in the stock items?

I feel like I am losing my rep virginity all over again. Is it supposed to hurt? Hello to all and many thanks to the new crew. This is fantastic.

So we are over the extreme temperature issue? I can't remember whether the issue was degradation of the lense, risk that it falls off the crystal. or glue used. Are there any refractory issues with the two different materials (sapphire and flint glass)? I know these are cheaper but I ask because for those without skills (me and others who ultimately will buy) we have to factor in the cost of shipping and work if there is an issue. So lower chance of failure is worth something.

Nice guess. I like the white face too. I really prefer the SS bezel. I guess it might be white gold in real life? Now if we can get Ziggy back we are cooking on all cyclinders.

Randy- Great post. I love the watch but the mystery movement scares the heck out of me. Is DW still in business or are you looking for used ones and praying the movement works? If you can't identify the movement how can you order parts. Or maybe that is part of the allure of a DW Daytona. I did just pick up a nice Red Sub from Tribal though. See, I am making progress slowly. I actually prefer the newer looking daytonas with seconds at nine (98,99 I guess). Did DW ever make these and do they have the same mystery movement or is there anything with the right size and spacing with a normal movement? Sorry for all the questions. But I do know you know the answers. By the way, great to see you here. I was depressed when I saw you had disappeared from the other place.

You lost me. Are we talking flint glass or sapphire?

I wouldn't read alot into it. I almost picked Blade for a new screen name.

Looks like what Eddie Lee is offering. http://photogalleryforum.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=1772 In fact, could that be Eddie since he is in Canada.
