bertieng Posted June 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 It's a secret and NO one will tell you... ... //robi ????? Don't quite understand what is the big secret behind. Thought this forum is opened for members to exchange views and share experience, and help each others out. I found it extremely strange some guys just love to show off what they have done and smile at themselves by looking into the mirror and saying " look, I have done this and you can't, but I am not going to teach you no matter how polite you ask for help, poor lad"...... If this makes these people feel great, it is OK. They can continue to lock themselevs up in a nutshell and keep staring at the mirror admiring themselves. Cheers.

MADRED7 Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 (edited) ....I for myself did not canibalise my ROO bracelets just to get the endlinks.....if you want to put a 3rd party strap to it you can have a look on ORACLE and buy a strap that includes 2 endlinks, a buckle and a screwdriver....the strap fits the APROO case just fine. my 0.02$ Theo Edited June 29, 2007 by PAM1A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bertieng Posted June 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 Bert, it was a joke mate!!! you know "hahahahahaha"... About your problem i dont know becuse i will order the watch you orderd next week so i will help you out in 2weeks when i know!!! //robi No offense here, Robi. I am not taking this issue on you. If you will read from other posts in the forum, not only me have been asking questions on the AP RO bracelet/bezel screws.....politely, but simply any feedback on experience sharing was neglected. Just wonder what the heck is the big secret. But I will call this as selfish behaviour. And kiss my foot for admiring these people. Sorry to say.

ubiquitous Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 Don't worry, Robi... It's me he's making reference to. I'm the one who 'loves to show off what they have done and smile at themselves by looking into the mirror and saying " look, I have done this and you can't, but I am not going to teach you no matter how polite you ask for help, poor lad"......' Well... I'm certainly glad you posted this, Bertie. Saves me a lot of work from finishing up the write up on how to do this mod... The one I've been working on in my spare time since you started whining about it in another thread of mine. Think I'll spend that time with my wife and kids instead of trying to help someone on this forum. As someone who has given away my time, parts, watches, etc. to people on this forum... Helped with I don't know how many questions on how to do this or that... Sometimes to people I don't even know, or even receive a thank you from... Well, how dare I be so selfish and withhold knowledge that I have on something I had to figure out myself? How dare I not drop everything I'm doing at the office, at home, etc. to jump to your request and respond with a step by step on how to do something relatively petty, simply so that I can help benefit YOU, and your 'me, me, me' attitude? Well... Forget it. Again, thanks for posting this. You saved me a lot of time and effort by voicing your opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katerchen Posted June 29, 2007 Report Share Posted June 29, 2007 Can anyone help to advise how to remove the permanent link on teh bracelet? What tool should be used? Thanks. I read this thread and post 3 times lol but cant get the point off whats the problem sayin somethin or not except of havin the time to write some words... I understand that "bertieng" wants to know somethin but the rest of the postings seem mysterious to me? I understand kints joke couldve been a comment of myself either... I also understand ubi... but for me its just a question of time... i dont respond if im having somethin like an issue with someone but anyway randy you wasted something like similar time in trying to explain how you feel, think and why you post things on the board and why maybe you dont... I have a picture of my own moddin done to the 15202ST bracelet... maybe no one recognized before cause im not one of the 1000K posters around here having to spend much time on running a biz... Heres my thread of the watch (02.March.2007) http://www.rwg.cc/members/index.php?showtopic=21941&hl= and heres a pic of a unmoded and moded watch side by side comparison... i guess randy saw it too. The mod itself is not so much of a mystery. So what tool to use for grinding or cuting one fixed link out of the bracelet? Many ways to go but i used my good ol Dremel for this job. Thats all. You just have to be careful for not hurting the inner-links you want to still maintain for connecting the bracelet after you cut the link out... just be careful and do your job with a sure hand Look for yourself where the pin lies inside of the fixed link... cut it in the middle, be sure not to hurt the 2 little links because you will need them to adjust and connect properly again... Just give it a try youll succeed for sure! George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
