    No offence taken Alan, I was just having a laugh. Although it's a fake at least I won't be terrified of losing or damaging it if I wear it.

    I think what irks me about it is the fact that it's a blatant fake. If it looked like a Planet Ocean with a sterile dial I'd be fine with it. Well, it is what it is and I can look like a proper player in the wine bar hahaha.

    I had delivery from Cousins today, a longer mesh bracelet for the Mondaine and some deployment bracelet extension pieces, curses to my chubby wrists lol. I also bought a few more watchmakers tools, good quality tweezers and a set of Bergeon screwdrivers, not cheap but I was once told "buy cheap buy twice".

    When it comes to tools, quality costs but is usually good value in the long run, if they're used frequently and of course correctly.!

    Default Anyone keen on watches?

    Cheap & cheerful, arrived this morning, have to find a better strap for it.



    Better, hate those shiny black ‘leather’ straps they put on.

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”


    ***SMILE, BE HAPPY***
