The Rolex GMT master Pepsi, and the homage that I have.

Following on from my recent thread on my Rolex Submariner, and the homages that I have of it, I thought I would do the same for my Pepsi GMT, and the WMT homage of a much older model, the Pussy galore.

The back story to my purchase of my original Peps…

WRUW thread changes.

I have recently been approached by a member of VS management to ask my opinion on how the WRUW threads on this forum could be improved, to help increase the enjoyment of members.

I suggested that recent threads had shown many members were not happy wi…

The Rolex Submariner, and the Homages I have.

So I don’t know if you are like me, but whenever I buy a book on a specific watch I get all “Deep” on it for a while.

I have just bought, and am currently reading this by Nicholas Foulkes.

Question about RSC certification.

Need help here please.

If anyone who has had their Submariner serviced by RSC could chime in, did it come back with a certificate of WR, stating the test ATM?

ie, my 16610 is rated to 30atm, therefore I would expect it to be tested to this after a se…

The Oyster Perpetual Submariner by Nick Foulkes.

Just saw this hardback, and wondered if anyone had read it? And what they thought?

Seiko new arrival, and the dreaded pin and collar system.

I saw this watch on a WRUW thread yesterday, loved the look of it and bought it online, at a good discount it has to be said, from a U.K based dealer.

100000 posts, what does it mean to you?

I have just reached 100k posts on WUS, having been a regular on here for 13 years.

Clearly for me it will mean nothing, I will not be recognised by the VS management, either by way of a financial reward, or a simple “Well done Clive, thanks for suppor…

Farewell to “Nokie” you will be missed.

After over 15 years, and 100000 posts, one of our most active members has decided to hang up his laptop and move on to greater things.

Ever since I have been here (2013) I have seen Marks posts, and without a doubt I have never seen him say anything b…

Photo post bombing/crop dusting have your vote.

So the thread looking at the crop dusting issue/pleasure has been running for a while now, and I thought maybe a poll would be interesting.

First off my definition of crop dusting is (And maybe yours is different) posting the same cut and paste watch …

I miss my friend.

Strange how us watch weirdos feel about stuff that normal folk never would.

My 1993 Submariner failed on me for the first time a few months ago, when the mainspring broke, and it has been away having its innards ripped out, and put back together.

I h…
