Thanks Lanikai, thats definitely new news to me Another question on EMS, I don't have much experience on this but maybe others here can answer this. If a package of counterfeit goods was being shipped, in our case watches, would it be possible for the EMS workers or the customs people to steal the package, and the seller not being able to do anything at all? Basically I was given a tracking number starting with EB, I checked for the first time today after 7 days the package was supposedly shipped. Nothing showed up on either the EMS website or Parcelforce website (who deliver EMS packages in the UK). It has always taken a maximum of 7 days for a package shipped from China via EMS to reach here in the UK, so I was expecting the package to arrive today. Should a message show up upon tracking the package on either EMS or Parcelforce websites if the package was seized by Chinese customs? I guess nothing would come up if it indeed was stolen by EMS workers or customs workers...

Thanks Steve. I have found those type of tracking numbers to be incredibly rare, never had anything apart from "EA". However as you say, the tracking might show up in a few days

From all the tracking numbers I have ever received for packages shipped via EMS, they have always started with "EA" is it possible to have a EMS tracking number starting with "EB" or any other letter after "E"? Thanks for any input

People will only 'care' about a Rolex once they know that its a Rolex on your wrist. I can understand what By-Tor means. Those watches, the SFSO and Aquaracer are eye-catching, and in my opinion, look more impressive than lets say an Explorer I which is a very simple looking and dare I say 'cheap' looking Rolex. I have a $20 Sekonda which is modelled after it and its by no means an eye-catcher. Now if you saw 2 people from a distance, and one person had a Explorer I on their wrist, and another had a SFSO, which watch do you think is going to get more attention. I would say that 9/10 it will be the SFSO. Lets swap that SFSO with a PAM, again the PAM will get more attention.

This one today, just polished the bracelet yesterday with Brasso

If those pics taken by mjmurphy show Beckham wearing AP T3, then all I have to say is that he does have SOME good taste in watches

HELL YES!!! PAM bracelets are huge.

I am also learning how to do very simple modding to build my own frankenstein watches. As others have pointed out, taking a watch apart is a great learning experience and should increase your confidence over time to handle larger projects.

Its actually a myth that the crystals were exploding because they were mineral. In fact, sapphire has more chance of 'exploding' or cracking due to its physical properties. Most of the crystals exploding were from the Cartel and (I think Eddie Lee's) Ultimate Fiddy, because they had thin sapphire. The reason why DSN's sapphire crystals don't explode is because they are thicker.

You are so right, the dials and especially bracelets I like. The way they just sit around the wrist, no gaps at all, looks perfect IMO.

Maybe a Patek, Vacheron or Lange? Not really familiar with these models, a big watch though, very dressy.

Since we're on the topic to cruelty to animals (with dogs being the main animal in discussion), have a look at this video about how animals are treated on farms and the brutal way they are killed before they end up on your plate. Surely if dogs are not supposed to be treated cruelly, then these animals should also have the same rights? A dog is no more 'human' than these animals.

Nice post I knew somewhat about the face geometric 'mask' and how symmetrical faces are perceived to be more beautiful. I had no idea about this 'golden ratio' however and how its applicable to many things, thanks

I need to get one of these. I regret not jumping at the chance when you had your previous 21J version for sale! It would have given me a good idea of what it feels like to wear a Nautilus. I contacted Narikaa but he only has the 'power reserve' model with the gorgeous blue dial. Anyway here is a pic of my watch which I believe was designed by Genta:

I thought that I read that despite whether or not watches get worn, doesn't have anything to do with the oil drying out, and once the oil has dried out, your grinding metal. If what you say is more accurate, then that is good news for me

Having a lot of watches serviced is an expensive maintenance. For those who have a large collection of reps, how many of those do you get serviced or plan on getting serviced? Surely there must be loads which you plan to just 'run to the ground' (use it until the movement is killed).

That guy must really hate counterfeiters, he does it as a hobby too sometimes he gets 'urges' while he's watching tv to start hunting down counterfeiters.

Doesn't Andrew ship his watches in toys? I reckon that guy bought from one of the Cartel dealers

Nothing like good ol' action movies We need a new generation of Schwarzenegger's, Stallone's and Wiliis's, I haven't really been impressed with the wannabes.

Does anyone know what type of strap Sly wears in this movie. Is it a rubber strap or black leather? I'm finding it pretty difficult to tell from the screenshots.
