Dont buy a rubber strapped watch if your working with Hydroilic oil.

Fat is good.

Take a look in your local AD and look at the clasp of the SDDS, you will then put your name on the list.

Rob dont buy the Orange faced one, it may seem like a good idea at the time but after a week you will hate it.

Well, Yoza - you're a sharp bloke normally, but I think your love of watches and your willingness to advise the clueless in your area of undoubted expertise has blinded you and several other contributors to DCI's purpose in starting the thread - i.e. ironically pointing out the sterile, rehashed, restricted range of topics found in NSR these days. He's fishing and has got several hefty bites.

I love it when someone discovers a trick that we've all known for years, but don't bother with these days as it's supposed to result in an instant, permanent ban.

I see now, but if you read the other post on boring repetative threads in " NON SCOOBY RELATED " I knew it was a wind up by DCI and thanked him for it.

Infact I think I thanked him for it on the second post here.

I actually thought Bubbas picture was in referance to the Seiko Monster ORANGE FACE as the fisherman has an orange face....I will go and have a lie down.

Just for the record I havent " STARTED " a watch thread for months, and have only started a " couple ", ahem, in the 8 years Ive been here, minus my 18 month break.

Maybe we should get rid of the Tent Forum and change it to the Watch Forum, who needs information on Marquees anyway?

At the end of the day my watch is faster than your watch so there. (makes farting noise).

This is the benchmark - a client of mine has one. He got it for Christmas from his parent last year - so much for the credit crunch. Number and price is variable depending on source - however there were around 50 made and the nearest estimate you will get is around 150,000 Euros.

Oh, and for the scum who don't know anything about watches - it is a Hublot.

They sponsor Manchester United you know. Soon to be seen a Hublot, Bigger Bang, All Red?

Spooky, they were worth that sort of money, but half it now.

Since selling out to Manchester United and giving each team member a watch, Hublot have shot themselves in the foot.

Prices dropping quicker than Jordans knickers.
