do you know how many watch batteries died over Christmas in our busy little town?? My work-bench is a battlefield, but of course I know exactly where everything is located wink.gif

At the speed I am fitting new cells to watches, I'll be able to afford another milSub in around four years...!

For all the devotion.... focus... humour.... fun.... understatement.... talks and passion on these watches!!!!

You are one of a kind.

Truly in love and addicted to these special babies.
Killer collection.

Also i can't really relate to your technique to eliminate the other BIG MILSUB COLLECTION in GB LOOOOOOOL!
Remember the look.. when all 13 of them smashed on the marble hotel floor LOOL!

Wish you all the best for 2011 and i hope you will even find more of these.... or the other thing you where hoping for.


Best,

B

what's really impressive

December 31 2010, 7:58 PM 

nice watches but that still intact blue plastic bracelet tool is most impressive happy.gif

i can't believe yours still has the sharp pin point to the screw. i have broken about 3 of those hong kong cheapies trying to remove bracelet links.

but then again, maybe it wasn't the tool's fault and instead ham-fisted operator error? could it be your still functional tool is an indication of skill and know-how? after all, you are a professional happy.gif

btw, those watches are sort of interesting too...

all the best for 2011!

fred
