I need to get off the fence and build mine up... It's only been lying around for 5 + years... Did have the idea a couple of years back to go modern groupset.. but will probably stay classic with SR or DA

Have had the ID3 for a few months now, and think the design of the A & B pillars make the car borderline unsafe to drive. They effectively create huge blindspots that make pulling out of any junction, a nerve wracking experience.. I am seriously thinking about swapping into a different car

I have the identical frame sitting at home waiting to be built up..

Absolute gold

Couldn't find a spring bar tool, first thing this am.. not sure if I like the nato vibe on the 105.012.65

They look fantastic, but unless you want to drop that much on an everyday piece, I would go vintage all day long.. You could get a reasonable Ed White for the same amount, which would probably be an appreciating asset... Have no idea how this new version will fare in the secondary market, but most new Omega's, with a few limited exceptions don't appreciate in value for the 1st owner...

@swedeee yes they are
@johnnettles2johnnettles2 I must dig out the manual and correct the day function...
@JBJB once in a while, there are some advantages of being an old fart..
@PawGPawG they are not so common, as they were really expensive when they were new, and I don't think they managed to sell very many..

Loving my LCD Quartz Speedmaster today

Totally agree.. and a couple of other more obscure vintage Speedy's

No, I knew they had a car site, not sure how long the watch site has been running...

I have never sold a watch anywhere, always been a buyer... Although the wife does seem to be pretty determined that we need a new kitchen, so maybe I might have to let a couple of pieces go :(

Have no connection to the site or the seller, but damn I wish I had bought one of the original BA145.022-69 when they were not completely insane ££££

STS or Simon Freese, not sure about the cheaper, but better is very hard to find than these two.

@Robinho As @ejay2.0 said STS, or I am sure Simon Freese would also be a good choice

I am not a professional, but have owned a few troublesome Italian cars

That 2915 was lovely, but the price was completely ridiculous

Have replaced my i3 with an id3 this week... Onto forgot to order any i3's so I couldn't replace like with like... I absolutely loved the i3, the id3 feels like a massive step down in quality and design, but has a bigger battery... Maybe I will begrudgingly get to like it

I am not afraid

Simon Freese will service your IWC... He is in Essex..

Loving the MegaQuartz... Sure STS or Simon Freese will get that looking and working as good if not better than new...

Probably a stupid comment, but they do chew through batteries in MegaQuick time....

A bit of a speed after the TDF

Thanks Paid

Must Resist.. Looked nice :)

Thanks ExTra, am sure there will be a bit of adjustment

@Amey .. take me to the Gates of Hell

Not sure if this is the correct place to ask this question, but does anyone have any experience of running Auto Cad on a MBP?

My wife is becoming increasingly anti PC, but none of her office work on Mac etc..

Thanks

Sounds like an excellent mix of materials! Like the sound of the silicone render.. Personally I like the Straw bales, as they offer fantastic insulation, whilst being eco and sustainable etc...

We were planning on buying a plot 2 years ago, but the whole CV fiasco, has marooned us in London..

Fortunately the wife is an architect, and her native tongue is Portuguese, so it's a bit easier for us, than the average escapee's from Little Britain
