Hope it manages to pull through. Any sign of a nest? Hopefully one of the parents will find it once you've out a bit of food in it

I kinda get it with the dials still having the name Rolex on them, when clearly they have been repainted. If there is a market, Rolex should get into it. Much like Mercedes did with the G-wagon when the Bourne films featured them

I'm with you... Human slime!

* exclusions apply Yep, all those watches you actually want are excluded because it's only "sitewide" in their limited gallery page. Just say it's a sale and don't dress it up as something it's not. Anyway Timex, 25% off some watches for black Friday if anyone is in the market...

What about a phone call to an AP dealer or contacting them directly with the serial number? Surprised nobody has suggested that too.

I've a cape cod. Must say I was very underwhelmed, maybe it's my technique, s|Mrs to leave a nicer but not mirror finish on even light scratches

I don't understand it but I like it. It's not something I'd wear but jumps at me in a good way

Late to the party as always... Flat engines have my approval. But two suggestions Blaue Charon Or, Poor-Ka. Like a play on the shopping trolley Ford. I'm hurt by Porsche and Ford in a sentence like that....

I'd let the case come through ebay's official resolution process and stand your ground, its clear what was meant.

I have a FL twin power, well I have one that works and one with suspected dead main in at least one barrel. The non-runner has a 30mm case. I wouldn't be surprised if yours is that small too

So much human slime. Did he recognise it when you gave it back? Not a bad way to clean shaving brushes and razors either

You'll find quite a bit of love for Starking, granted they may not last as well as a Swiss, but seemingly if they are stripped, cleaned and reassembled they work well. Maybe QC is the issue. Its perhaps like 'made in Taiwan' used to be for VW parts 'Taiwan Sh*t just don't fit' was the saying. Times change and now some fantastic parts are coming from there which are far superior to some of the Western/USA made parts.

Another fine job Nigel

Presumably the Chronostop? If it were a 'driver' it'd be sold right now! I don't have too much luck in selling, though I don't try too hard either.

Plenty of people around with accurate Vostoks. A bit of regulation may help, or you may find the new movements to just be better than they used to be
