to Octopuses (Octopi?)
Latest trend is Octopus for singular and Octo's for plural.

This thread is only beginning to digress........we haven't touched on Hitler, global warming, Boris's marriage, etc.
OP is probably glad he was canned.

How about horrifying everyone on TRF by putting an aftermarket crystal on a ROLEX! Now we are into blasphemy!

So, we've managed to go from a human GIMME pig (OP), to Rabbi, Priest and Pastor jokes, to Alligator puns, to Hebraic Law (and permutations), to burned out transistors, to Octopuses (Octopi?), to Valhalla, to absolute silly.
When are we going to segue into the Lord of the Rings, Star Wars and/or Star Trek?
Omega Fans want to know...
Oh.....
This is an Omega thread?

That isn't considered to be an upgrade to that thing?
OK, everyone, the gauntlet has been cast.
Let the vitriol be unleashed!!!! 😝

This would likely result in an instant ban. Standy was banned just for having the username "Overpriced Seiko.” I approve of both the username and the mod 👍

I think this is the right thread...hard to tell, but can anybody tell me how much this watch is worth? I'm trying to figure out if I made a mistake or caught a great one! Thanks!! And before you ask, I'm not comfortable opening up the back, so don't ask.

It's like going to a British car show here in the States. The Rolls and Bentley crowd are a LOT of fun, kicking back and having a grand old time; the Jag folks are so uptight and pretentious that you don't dare sneeze in their direction if you have a (gasp!) Triumph or MG...
I admit here, to all and sundry, that I am the proud owner of an early 1969 Triumph GT6+, 100% original which I show a lot, and which has won the Best In Class award at the Vintage Triumph Register National Convention (it's a heck of a lot of work keeping it up, but oh! so much fun).

I wouldn't know. As a survivor of the 1970s platform shoe fad, I've never liked wearing pieces of furniture to be cool.

Cue outraged Rolex owners...

I am now remembering why I stopped the audio madness so many years ago (and settled on my systems with no more playing around)- it can drive you nuts with all the variables.
And you turned to watches instead?
Interesting choice of remedy.

What in the name of J———————————-t (not wanting to offend any religious sensibilities), is a photo of a watch doing in this thread?

If this devolves into Lord of the Rings or Star Wars………then I will personally hunt the ridiculous moderators down.

Now Star Trek is different, it is manly.

I am, and an ex-pat as well and I’d love to be watching the Black Caps go round.

Sources close to the palace have confirmed, this image is not edited. Her Majesty really is a pocket-sized monarch.
