Finepics Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 I guess you have hooked that microphone up to a PC to check the watch timing!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everythingape Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 You are making a seamaster caseback opener! either by induction or by making that little oven bake a plastic mould Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r11co Posted September 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 (edited) I guess you have hooked that microphone up to a PC to check the watch timing!! Sorry - I should have said this isn't of my doing. Just something that caught my eye in passing. Good guess though, and might lead to another project.... But wrong Ticking time bomb? Not on this occasion.... Edited September 14, 2006 by r11co Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linder Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Not your doing? I think it must be Nanuq with a detonator strapped to the back of his new watch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r11co Posted September 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 (edited) These are brilliant. I hope you're not disappointed when I tell you what it actually is... Edited September 14, 2006 by r11co Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everythingape Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 A pre-wrist heater for those cold alaskan days? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finepics Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 OK - it's a little magnetic rotor that keeps the movt rotor spinning round to keep the watch wound!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 I know, its an electro magnetic security lock, you stick in a quid and lock your SMP up to it when in the Turkish bath! I saw one only yesterday, honest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r11co Posted September 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 (edited) I'm going to let this run. Another picture clue in the morning. All I'll add for now is that this was a factory approved mod. Keep guessing Edited September 14, 2006 by r11co Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haveblue Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Hmmmmm....could it be they are demagnetizing the omega SMP? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Your miles off guy's.................it's a digital watch that has 115 different complications as well as GPS and the wires run off to a car battery. Ken Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tenacious_b Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Your miles off guy's.................it's a digital watch that has 115 different complications as well as GPS and the wires run off to a car battery. Ken I was going to say magnetic watch winder, but Finepics beat me to it....I am judging from the wires, I'll say it could be a cellphone so that someone can talk on their Omega Phones while it's citing 3cm off their wrist.

r11co Posted September 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 No-one has even come close so far, so here's another visual clue..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everythingape Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 yeah, that looks like a standard 3,5mm jack, so it supposedly is something acoustic going on.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r11co Posted September 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 yeah, that looks like a standard 3,5mm jack, so it supposedly is something acoustic going on.. You would think so, but no. Pay close attention to the face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmcsherry Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 You would think so, but no. Pay close attention to the face. Please tell me it's not some kind of led powered alternative to superlume! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonthebhoy Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 Some sort of lume charging contraption??? JTB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r11co Posted September 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 Please tell me it's not some kind of led powered alternative to superlume! Oooooh - very very close! I think I am going to have to ask the context it is being used in.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonthebhoy Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 Oooooh - very very close! I think I am going to have to ask the context it is being used in.... Is "the device" being used prior to having some publicity shots taken, perhaps? JTB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r11co Posted September 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 (edited) Is "the device" being used prior to having some publicity shots taken, perhaps? I'm gonna give this one to rmcsherry. I'm at work at the mo so don't have the pictures that give the answer. Edit to follow... (PS. Well seeing Gravesen has fallen out of favour on your avatar JTB ) Edited September 15, 2006 by r11co Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonthebhoy Posted September 15, 2006 Report Share Posted September 15, 2006 (PS. Well seeing Gravesen has fallen out of favour on your avatar JTB ) This is weird. I'm at work and I'm still seeing Gravo when I should be seeing JVOH. JTB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
