Will have to post up the pictograms card. I'll up pics of the others as well 2 more Omegas/TAG/Pinchbeck/Laco I had a Bell & Ross as well was a real bargain but never bonded so flipped it. I'm not a Rolex fan but do like Tudor which is weird ! Got my eye on a Raymond Weil as well ! It's like Zeditius sometimes

She does polish up quite well - probably due a service which is about the same as a service for the Zed

Sorry Mate genuine - need to bone up on your Omega's Purchased from the Omega authorised jeweller in East Grinstead in 2006 for the princely sum of £710 ( A bargain !) This was when Omega decided to open the Omega Boutiques as sole distributors so the smaller shops had to take a hit on their markup or return at cost - Omega Seamaster with the rarer sword blade hands - brand new with box and papers - my present to myself for 22 years Service in the mob and has increased in value although was my daily for years so took a bit of a battering until I got the Speedy Pro - thats genuine as well

ooo Fake.. Why do you think its fake ?

better pic

Fake or Genuine ?

Omega looks fake The Swiss Made writing looks out of alignment but would need to see the back of the case to confirm I think they had a crystal back and there should be some numbers on the lugs - not sure why you would fake a Longines as they are quite reasonably priced

Busted ***Cough** I'll never trust Ratners again

Post up your watch pics now then guess if fake or real ! Here's my 1996 Seiko Kinetic

I'd be interested in getting this done did you do any costings ? I have an uprev license

I have a few decent watches - (Omega/TAG/Laco) but my favourite is a 1996 Seiko one of the first Kinetic's Doesn't half come up well after a clean with the Meguiars metal polish and more accurate that than the wind ups !

Although does feel good when someone tries to call you out on your fake when its the real thing !

I'd rather wear a Timex than a fake big name - not classy Plus its illegal to bring fakes back into the country - customs do make the occasional collar

Interesting article however would have thought if we are looking at the next major breakthrough commercial markets would have thought be better going East from London rather than West

Tried trim glitz ?

Recommended bit of kit - Fitted mine a few months ago GLWTS

SGS used to do a video on their website - I do seem to recall if its a JDM then there are a few funnies that need to be done but straight forward on UK spec

Had similar where car would not start - was the camshaft sensor - there's a thread up with the PID codes

Mine was fairly decent spec, Manual box, Brembo's Full Birds eye Satnav (Great for sushi in Tokyo but useless in UK) but still works fine. Also had Fujitsubo exhaust fitted. I didn't like the cloth seats so had a leather re-trim. Triple gauges an in kmh and there is no time clock function. Be aware you can plug and play into a set of UK Triple gauges to get the mph and the time clock will flash and not display correctly. If wanted then you must also swap in a heater brain. Its a pretty easy job just the connectors are a PITA and also put 18" Rays on as 17" was hitting too many speed bumps. There is also a nifty trick on the mirrors which dip when reverse is engaged - although mine don't ! Never been able to find the fuse/relay for it and have checked them all ( answers on a postcard !) IMO it's all subjective - I have tried to celebrate the "JDMness" of mine part from kmh cant handle that ! - I have a quite a few Jap Service stickers going on and plastic buttons in Japanese and all adds character Pop in a Domo Kun and she's sweet as a nut

Did look at this but going for a lazy day. Not had one for weeks and this is the last free weekend until Aussie trip middle of September !

Zed for sale coming real soon ! Congrats - all the best to both of you !

Yep it was the slots that threw me last time may have to visit Bob for support !

Anyone ever fitted one of these to A JDM as the holes are not predrilled. Wondered how you got on with it

I have a set of aluminium ones that I may well sell and put the dipped originals back on I can't comment on others work but Aquagraphix are very good
