Loving the bromance

I took it into Earnst and Jones last year to be serviced and they wanted an arm and a leg, so it went back in the draw and I have not thought of selling it. I am happy with a Timex. I try and keep out of politics and just stay with social chit chat or car talk

Omega, would love a nice Omega, lovely time pieces, how much did e&j want to charge you

I'll have to start a watch thread, I have a collection of watches, nothing to dear but I like them.

E&J sent it off for an estimate which took 3 weeks to do. Instead of telling them to go ahead with the job, I am glad I asked for a quote on a service and a new glass as it was slightly scratched, the bracelet also needed a link tightening up. They did not charge for the estimate as that part was free. The quote came to £535. As I wasn't feeling flushed, I took the watch to a local jeweller in Wood Green. He repaired the bracelet and put in a new battery for £15. There was no fuss.

Don't want to hijack - or to nick ideas, but - new watch thread started!

So you did any way

I have posted a few of mine on there

I thought it would be courteous to do so.

*knocks window*
Hullo, anybody home?
Following and exchange on the online equivalent of a military dictatorship where I was in compliance with the rather stringent rules.... I fell victim to a toys out the pram strop by a Mod and got banned.
I've had an account here for a couple of years and never used it.... sorry.
I'll start now if that's ok... and I'll be a very good boy, promise.
Hope all is well.

Oh... and I spent a pile of money I shouldn't have yesterday adding a Peugeot RCZ to add my fleet... get it on Friday and now happily exist at both ends of the car spectrum. I don't think I've seen two cars that are more polar opposite.

Hi John
Everybody welcome here, even the damned....................... ooops I meant banned

Enjoy the new look forum.

Cheers Mick. Looks great.

Welcome Bluey,

Nice to have you on board, I hope you will enjoy your stary here.

I see you're from Glasgow, i will be in Scotland for 2 weeks in August and i will be staying in Lochgelly,Fife and will be poping over to see my brother in Bannockburn,Stirling so keep a eye out for me

I'm up and down the A9 running right through there every day between Glasgow and Montrose. My 75 puts in 5000 miles a month at the moment. I'll look out for you. I'll be in a Platinum Gold CDTi Saloon with premium bumper.... and some really cheesy music of some description.
I'm already enjoying it here. More laid back... definitely.

haha... my sausage fingers had missed a whole word out.

The "75 and ZT Owners Ltd Co" isn't exactly reknowned for being a light, humourous existence for those whose face just doesn't happen to fit.... but enough of unhappy stuff.
