Very true vanuden , when people come in and say " oh ive had it twenty years and has never needed a service " you know thats when its gonna be more than a standard service . Get it done regularly and you are maintaining it . Leave it beyond reasonable time and you are repairing it . Big difference .

V-l , get me the reference number off the website / a brochure and let me know .

V-l , which one mate ?

And also sell , Omega , Tag Heuer , Bentley Breitling , Chopard , Longines , Cartier , Tissot , Victorinox , and we also have the largest Rolex store outside London . Small family run business .....

Better watches about for less money . But. If you do want one new give me a shout as we sell Breitling in two of our stores and " will look after you " !

Regardless of all above , servicing is to be expected on a " luxury " watch so yes every 3 to 5 years you have to accept a large bill . But something like a speedmaster professional is a classic that will hold its value over time and is a watch for life , and an heirloom for the generation to come . I have a 1966 IWC calibre 89 that has been looked after methodically and is as good as new . According to its extract from factory archives , was made in april 1966 .

Thankyou .

The whole room is out of focus . Had a heavy night .....

Screw all that japanese and russian nonsense . I bought this yesterday .

Nothing wrong with the whole lomography concept if like is suggested is getting people into film , sorry " analogue lifestyle " again .
That's a bit like most people on lfgss who are saying no to carbon and DI2 , and on the watch forum on here people rightly covet swiss and mechanical . Lomo website got me into film , bought a Zenit 11 and some b+w film with no clue how , am learning . And having fun .

Errr no I am now not free tuesday . Wifey working so got to chimp sit .

I'm still free pretty much every eve this week .....

Calling something " art " is one way of saying to people if they dont like it its because they are too thick to " understand " it !

We have Rolex in our Windsor store and bossman wears a Deepsea . Am sorry tho pooface dont like that at all . Can think of better ways to spend 30k .
How do you justify circa 22k over the " stock " one ?

Tw2 you have to read " wind up bird chronicle " and 1q84 if you into Murakami . Genius .
Just finished jonathan holts The Abomination , and just started Antal Szerbs Journey by moonlight .

Pooface , is that a custom pvd deepsea ? How much is that ?

I did exactly the same thing with my system six , impulse buy . Nos frameset for £200 , then one local cannondale dealer quoted me £ 400 for the fork and £ 125 for the headset!
Another dealer got me a super six fork as a " crash replacement " for £160 .
Beautiful frameset , you will not regret that purchase . Need to see pics of it finished .

Kings Head and Bell probably . And as I said is the cycling pub in the town , tues will be full of mtb'ers having post ride drinks .

Grumpy Maine Coon ex breeding queen ( european champion tho )

Am free both nights , lets see who we can rustle up ...and am normally there anyway .

Kings Head and Bell is very cycle friendly , both The Freewheeling and Outdoor Traders Cycling Club use it for meetings , and apres work / ride drinks . Lets set a date !

I think that speedmaster is lovely , but no professional . And no box or papers .....cheaper one on chronomaster.co.uk .

I know what you are saying VanUden , and would I be wearing that Divemaster if I hadn't been given it by the manufacturer ? Probably not . But I will wear out on bike or swimming ' cos like I said still aint bad at what it does for the money .
Whats your view on Montblanc watches ?

Ricky , I believe Tim may have had something to do with that sideways 155!

Dammit I am friends with Tim Harvey ex BTCC champ and his experiences of Tarquini in the 155 weren't boriing ....
