Personally, I found chronic liver disease the best master for giving up alcohol. For last 10 years I never had more than 2-3 beers a month anyway but tee total now. There are a great number of...

Thanks all, not having a lot of luck TBH, local independants won't touch it, ususally saying they cant get Omega spares but in reality, they probably just don't want to. Lunns listed above is the...
I have a 2500 PO with a loose bezel, Loose enough that if I brush the watch against my leg, the sofa etc. that it turns. The bezel also has some slight play in it. Apart from that, the watch is...
The outside "rings" on the dial to the best of my knowledge was only on the automatic model. The quartz modes had a dial very similar to the one yours is fitted with now. I wonder if the new models...
The seamaster you mentuion will be significantly cheaper then a gen1 PO and good POs are not that easy found now. Expect to pay up to £3.5k.
And yet, likely to hold more credibilty with a car dealer than punters off a watch forum!
What evidence exactly is there that he lied? Tyres in good condition is a strange way of decribing a consumable or wear item. The tyres can be in good condition, perfectly road legal but on a used...
take the car to kwik-fit for a tyre safety check, get them to measure, If it's under 3mm you can make an arguemnt, if not, live with it, either buy a new tyre or drive it for 6 miobths or more until...
Saw him live in Belfast a few years ago, loved it. There was a couple in front of us left within the first 10 mins, obviously had no idea who they were going to see.
Will take someone of a certain age to get that (so most on here I suspect), but that made me laugh out loud!
I did wonder about this as something I remember readng said the first generation didn't have micro adjustment in the clasp but this one has.
That's what I'm thinking. I know the box isn't a big issue but paying top dollar for it would mean everything should be right. Not only that, but the fact I'm being told I'm wrong and that is the...
Jon, thanks so much for taking the time to reply with that detail. Pics of stunning POs are making me want one even more!
One thing I'm realising is I don't know enough about them. The one I...
Funny enough, that's exactly what she said when I asked about the service and if still covered by the terms of it, she offered a 12 month warranty.
In fairness, she knew very litttle and gave the...
Looking some advice here. I was out with my wife today and came across a used watch dealer who had a 2005 Planet Ocean in stock, Having wanted to get my hands on one for a while, I went in for a...
Someone after my own heart there! I have a Steinhart Ocean 1 in 39mm and a Squale Ocean blue. The Steinhart would make a great daily\beater but is at a quality above it's price point. The Squale...
Thanks all for advice on this, I was unable to find the original gasket (as I suspected) but measured with vernier calipers and was able to order a new one from the bay.I'm wearing the watch as I...
Turns out maybe I should have just given him it. I was showing him some of this thread and now he's mad to get a birth year issued CWC G10!
Can't help on a replacement but just wanted to say the scenario rings true for me. My 15 yr old has taken a real liking to my 38mm Hamilton auto field watch as he's in cadets too. You are a better...
I know, I've onlhy myself to blame. I didn't even see the gasket when I took the caseback off, but when refitting, the caseback is loose on the case without it. It's a pressed on so I'm not sure if...
Thanks, I had tried them but my case number is C024447A and the site says it's not listed :disturbed:
I may have been a bit foolish (again) and decided to swap the battery on my Certina DS-2 precidrive chrono myself. The process went fine until the time came to press the caseback on. It would seem...
Not sure on the servicing costs but probably not much more than the outboards (been years from I had a boat with an inboard), but if something goes wrong with the inboard\outdrive, it gets expensive...
Not a popular opinion but one I second! I know the old SKXs were a forum fav but having tried a couple i cannot understand the appeal. With the price some Seiko models are now, I can see better...
How many are likely to be on the boat at any one time? The new boat is a 5 seater but if you want it to plane without a struggle, you'll need the 60hp engine. Also, where are you storing it? ...
