Paul what bracelet have you changed it to?  :think:

Do you have a pic?  :D

yipeee i think im acually up and runningand my pc seems ok  :D well john i orderd some that was slightly different but TBH they look the same, ill go over each one before i send out as that was my mistake last time and as i dont generally wear a bracelet i didnt notice, although they seem to wear in ok,

ok the backs are being engraved and i hope to pick them up monday, then i hope to start getting them out next week,  :tu: again thanks for the patiance my pc problems havnt helped ,  :-\ but TBH the break has been a eye opener as i spend tooo much time on the net , i have actually gone out on my mountain bike and seen the world outside  :D

Thanks for the update Paul  :tu: happy that your PC probs are sorted and that you were able to see a bit of the outside world  :D it helps to set aside time for this IMO  ;)


So what was wrong with the last bracelets mate?  :cheers:

 :D yes chako i went outside  :ahhh it was fun and i didnt miss the net as much as i used to,  :D

a couple of the bracelets needed running in the main catch is held in place with friction and the clasp holds it down, ive had no problems of realeas but as always i take it all in and will try and improve where i can without adding to much to the overal cost when possible  :tu:

ok i hope this doesnt hold things up but as i transfrered money from paypal to my account from my sister in laws pc paypal have put the money back into my paypal account and stopped any transfers till i prove who iam  :think: i needed this money to pay for the engraving and the postage i drew out funds from my bank account as i thought it had transfered over  :-\ i guess this is a good thing with paypal as they took it as someone taking money from my account and froze it but not so good for me, is this normal ? so once ive done my night shifts ill get onto it and i hope it doesnt hold things up,  :-\

PayPal has a bad reputation for doing things like that if there is a lot of money moving hands. I read that they like to freeze large accounts so that they can reap the interest. Frozen accounts tend to be frozen for half a year...or so I have read online.

Hope this is now what has happened to you.

ok here is the explorer type case with bling bezel, i can get this with a smooth or penny edged bezel,


as for a daytona im doing one for my brother but using a asian movement that has 24hr day and date sub dials, with working cronograph subs with a swiss eta movement will cost a lot,

there are lots of different ETA movements , im talking about the mechanical automatic type,cost around anything from £50-200 and up and up, £50 is low and ive found the asian movements as good and keeps the overal cost down, but of course futuristically the swiss is the best ,
