  1. Homer, I think all these people have held their breath for long enough. Are you going to fill us all in with what is actual fact ?
  2. Same here , since last night.
  3. Has anyone even SEEN under a FM crazy hours dial? The hand color can be changed if I know how to take them off. Don`t want to just pull them and stuff things up.
  4. Now that is seriously stylish and very very classy. I love that watch to little bits. It`s a pity about the sub-dial spacing, the name position and the hands, I definately think you should UNLOAD that one smartish !!!!! no,no, no..............joke, .............joke,.......joke, ................I LOVE IT. Please put me 1st. in line when you do sell.
  5. Has anyone ever done a F.M. crazy hours dial swap between a gen. dial and a rep dial? Things to watch out for, jump hour hand removal, dial fittings etc. ? The differences are quite subtle, with the gen. dial printing being much finer and the numeral serifs also being finer. Any info. would be most welcome, many thanks.
  6. Good to hear of someone being successful on Ebay, when it is something that they can put to good use, especially with the knowledge that goes with it. Had he said $70 , you may have taken it, so his loss, your gain. Well done , and hope to see the results. ( pics,pics, pics.)
  7. Even with 1 st. and 2nd, version reps that we know about , when they get this close it becomes scary. So , we have 1st and 2nd version dials, but the so subtle differences would fool many. The extra sharpness of the engraving, the space between the anchor tangs and the , "B" the boldness of the date font, the gold color in the sub-dial difference. I would plumb for the bling, bling diamond bezel being Gen. Of course I could be very, very wrong, and would not be at all surprised if they were BOTH reps. Good to see them side by side.
  8. 2-- 1mm. SS. spacers , between the lug and the strap. Or find another strap.
  9. Watchmark.
  10. This one is from www.chronoworld.com Their prices have now gone up also they are un-available. http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=69779 Still available at lonestar for $138
  11. I think someone here is pulling someone`s plonker. In the original post the person is going to TAIWAN. ( that is part of China, last time I heard ) The subject has suddenly shifted to THAILAND. WTF ? Also Duro , do you know for a , "fact" that River would not meet you? Have you contacted River to ask ?
  12. It is a nice watch, though as italiano 17771 said, very similar to the BCE and Windrider series. Crosswind. Windrider Chronomat GT.
  13. That`s eggactly what I thought. Though, I do think that all those eggs were shelled. Can you even imagine the STINK in that place ? Good place to be after the night before !!
  14. I have ordered ,and paid for, watches advertised on the "top" dealers sites here , only to be told 3 days later that the watch was not available , and was out of production. I had to wait a further 5 days for a refund to my account. So why were they still advertised on the dealers site ? I put it down to absolute slackness.
  15. See,..... there is not one of you , that can agree. We are seeing here,( in the whole ) comments and post`s from people with 2-20 posts. Just because 1 member has a problem with a long time collector , all this $hit gets thrown up into the fan ....again. These comments are simply not good enough. What is transpiring with precious time , I do not know. Where highoeyazmuhudee, got the information or inclination from, that Watchmark dropships, I do not know.
  16. NO, Not green YET..............they havn`t painted it yet, ( it`s a WOODEN fence ) This is for when they do, sooos they`ll know how long it takes them.
  17. Oh........ the fence is GREEN.
  18. Ok, Ok, forget the piece of (red ) string. If it takes 2 men..... 4 days to paint a fence, How long would it take 4 men to paint a fence?
  19. Oh,.... forgot to add...... it`s a RED piece.
  20. If this is the shortest thread, How long is a piece of string?
  21. Why not drop Watchmark a PM ? ( apprentice collector here ) Quick , reliable, good prices, quite a few members have had good dealings with him. What have you got to loose ?
  22. But if the blue hand is for the hours and the gold upright for the minutes. then it would be , 9.03 Still wouldn`t want to try tell the time on a dark night !
  23. If the screws on the bezel represent the hours, Then the time showing is 12.45 Using the blue hand (minute) The gold upright ( hour )
  24. silly bugger, I bet that HURT !!
  25. Have been thinking about this watch all afternoon. If the time is read , noting the HOUR hand and which numeral it is pointing to, AFTER,..... half past the hour, the time would be........ Whatever the hour numeral is pointing to........ Plus the No. of minutes, ie. ( Hour hand pointing to say 7 , plus minute hand pointing to quarter to the hour ) 45 minutes. = 7.45 ?
