Hi all, Paul's son Jack here again.
I honestly feel lost for words. Here goes, anyway...
Firstly, sorry for the delayed response - I've been very busy and life has had to go on, despite the time...

Hi all, Paul's son Jack here again.
I honestly feel lost for words. Here goes, anyway...
Firstly, sorry for the delayed response - I've been very busy and life has had to go on, despite the time...
This was my last 'buying weakness'; don't let people persuade you that standards are dropping, just not true! This LP Supreme looks and plays beautifully; note it has standard tuners and zero fret. ...
Yes we still get ours delivered....and leave an envelope with his money outside in a bottle.
Civilised, isn't it?
Paul.
How about 'spitfire heritage' gin....it's not cheap, but interestingly distilled in Cambridge. You'll find it on spitfireheritagegin.com (unsurprisingly), although it may be a bit difficult to track...
...do I get a prize? Like a Zimmer frame or walking stick...:blue:

From Echoes....
....and everything is green, and sub-marine....?

It's this one, an Emergency Mission on a rubber strap. It's not the width, it's the thickness!
(Ooh err Missus!)

There is a Glashutte Original Senator Navigator on sales corner at present for circa £1650, you don't get much classier than that.....

I have always loved the look of Blancpain's FF in gold, cost new about £13k, which is why I haven't got one....

lovely....

I have 7.25 inch wrists (ooh err missus!) and it doesn't wear too big. It is quite thick though and stands proud, so you have to be careful not to catch it on things. You could always wear one on a...
Having taken it apart, I noticed that the pin on the end-pieces had started to disintegrate which had worn through one of the two links which attach to it.
I'm afraid it's a goner. Without a...
My wife's Jubilee bracelet has come apart between the end link and bracelet. Has anyone had similar problems that was sorted satisfactually?
I don't really want to replace it with an aftermarket...
..and you have misunderstood my point! Which is that the 'envy' which Porsche engenders is misplaced when most of the cars on the road are, in fact quite old, and not expensive playthings!
...
If if you are implying that all Porsche owners are posh or rich, you are very much mistaken! Don't forget that more than 70 percent of all Porsches produced are still on the road, far more than any...
Sounds like a good way to ensure the rarity of 993s....I won't be 'bothered'. There is no way my sons are going anywhere near mine!
The trouble with watches/jewellery is that one man's indulgence...
Must have been 'British Luck', we had -10* winters for 3 years in a row. Didn't help me getting to work by driving up the A4 in the morning, mind you! I could write books about my journeys to...
Nice little amp.....sound just like the design of the two little amps I use as a stereo pair. They are called SJ Audio Ants. Based on an old Gibson design from the fifties using 5Y3 rectifier, 6V6s...
I love watching short-track speed skating since living in Holland for 3years in 1986. I tried to learn to skate on the frozen slotje opposite my house, trailing behind a metal chair. I got to the...
Hi,
when we want to do wreck diving, we go to Key Largo, Florida. Plenty of wrecks (not much else TBH) and warm water. Egypt is also very good, with the advantage of reefs as well if you get all...
Blimey, that must be a very expensive camera casing!
I must admit to wearing a Sinn for my diving, and no they don't go anywhere near their theoretical limits. I view the rating more as a guide to...
I guess so, although I think the postage/parcel costs were high, so if you live near London going thru Wempe is probably cheaper.
Paul.
Well, it's back! Posted on Tuesday, and it arrived on Wednesday in a large box. It was like a 'Russian Doll' unpacking it, with so many layers.
It was on the new strap with the old ones, end links...
My dad did one-and-a-half tours in Lancs, as a navigator, with 61 Squadron (who flew more sorties than any other bomber squad during WW2) and 617 squad, after the raid.
He had an Omega watch...
I was given a Grand Seiko for my birthday in 1968, and wore it until the early eighties. Unfortunately it went wrong and nobody could/would repair it, so it perished. No parts you see.....it was...
There is something 'right' about that design, difficult to define, like an attractive car or plane. I am looking for a steel one so trawling thru Chrono 24 adverts......
