Nice post Ted.

Those 'mid-sized' ones look very interesting.

U-Boats are growing on me.

Just as long as I don't get that 'sinking feeling'.............

LOL, agreed.

 

I'd love to be able to wear a large U-Boat but don't have a manly enough wrist for it. :)

Depends on what you want to spend, any trusted dealer can supply them.

 

Depending on the movement they can be $88 to $300+

I bought that cat for my son when he was 13 after his previous cat died.

 

My son is now 30 and the cat recently died; he was a pretty cool cat.

RIP Cat.

I love cats.

We (me and her) have 2 now, a Maine Coon called "Funky Chunky Monkey" and a Bengal called "Clarence"

(even tho' Clarence is a she).

Monkey came with a sister, named by me "ASBO Kalamazoo", but she was killed a few years ago by some

fucker driving too fast.

My avatar is of GTWC (Gummy the Wonder Cat" - 'cos she lived to nearly 20 and had lost most of her teeth.

My apologies for thread crapping.

Hey guys!

 

Yesterday I've got my 50 mm Flightdeck CAS BE reps and realized that they are too big for my wrist :wacko:

 

So now I want to find a 45 mm version, but can't find where to buy one.

Can you recommend me online shops that can have a 45 mm Flightdeck CAS BE (the one with white dial and brown strap).

 

Thanks!
