Hello chaps

After borrowing one from her friend, my wife has been looking for a 26mm Datejust in all-stainless, smooth bezel, with mother-of-pearl dial and diamond indices, on an oyster bracelet. ...

Should I soak it for a given amount of time, or rub it in and rinse off... what do you think would be the best method?

In November last year I went away for six weeks and left my Casio GW-5000 in my bathroom. "So what?" I hear you say - well, I left it next to an air freshener and it spent those six weeks soaking...

Yep, £130 for my dial, but the first one was wrong so they had to redo it. Get them to send photos to you before they send it back to you, if you do opt for a redial.

STS will do a great job on it; I have an f300hz (not a Speedsonic though) which was pretty much beyond hope, now it looks like brand new.

Thanks!

Leave him a one-star review and be sure to write in it what happened.

Mine won't update, because I had my phone unlocked :(

Speedmaster Mk IV owner here, I don't think they're held in lower regard than current autos. Indeed, in the few months I've had it it's been commented on more than when I had a hesalite one.

It's not that important, I was just surprised at their set-in-stone no-negotiation stance, which I hadn't experienced before.

I tried it on, and decided that I was going to go ahead and buy it, thinking I would be able to argue the price down somewhat. It's a Datejust, after all. I said to the woman "OK, let's talk about...

I went into Goldsmiths in Liverpool yesterday morning having seen a handsome Datejust in the window, with a view to buying it. They would not come down on the price at all and said that Rolex...

Latest and final (hopefully) update.

I sent it back after it had stopped, this was some time in early July. On 6 September STS wrote to me (as above) and then followed up by phone. Simon, the...

Wow, I'm very disappointed.

I sent it back to STS in July with a note concerning the dial lettering as well as the fact that it had broken down already (when I wrote the above post) and today heard back from them.

What a load of bollocks.

A thousand thanks for this link; I've been in touch with a couple of guys on there and now have two cases' worth heading to my sister's place. Excellent site, firmly bookmarked :)

Do you have your network devices assigned static IP addresses or do you let the router do all the assigning?

What I'm getting at is - maybe there's more than one device on the network with...

I discovered it in New York a few months back, had it again in San Francisco a couple of weeks ago and brought back a bunch in my hand luggage. ...

That is almost the worst POS I have ever seen.
