    Looks quite nice, I'd wear one.

    Regulus was the Roman consul whose eyelids were cut off by the Carthaginians so the sun would blind him.

    The recognised equation

    I think it's the same as with bikes isn't it?

    If the bid arrives in the last 5 seconds there's a good chance that they're using a bid sniper, and your competitor was probably nicely tucked up in bed when the auction ended.

    Sorry, sorry!

    I thought you asked about wrist and ankle!

    Of course I would never wear watches on both my left and right wrists, I'd look a proper Charlie.

    I would never have thought it.

    I had heard that Kim Jong-Un has a fondness for expensive watches, I hadn't appreciated he was a member here!

    Breitling UK may tell you that they cannot repair the earlier Aerospace models, the parts not being available from ETA. This seems a little off since at least one of the 988.xxx family of...

    Pleased to find this thread and see that my doubts (rather strong ones at that) are echoed by others.
