Mesh bracelet for my Speedy!
I finally got the mesh bracelet I ordered for my Speedmaster, and I like it.It's a little heavier than I expected, but on the wrist feels much lighter than the standard steel bracelet. The clasp seems a little thin but, I think will hold up well.It sure gives the watch a nice retro look.I still haven't mastered getting it on though! I would be much easier if I had a third hand, but I'm sure it will get a little easier with some practice.Over all the mesh on a Speedy gets a from me!I know, no pictures; I dont have a camera at my office and I can't get a decent pic out of my cell...

AllI have mistakenly deleted the thread started yesterday by Tom Diss. This came about when I went to delete one of my own posts; rather than permanently delete the post I managed to kill the whole thread. Not clever; especially considering the sensitivity of the subject.Fortunately I had it open on another screen and was able to recover the first page. This is reprinted below verbatim and I have screen shots available - if anyone wishes to see what they'd posted as it looked then please PM me. What we have lost is, as memory serves, two posts from Coronado (Bryan) asking for details of sponsorship and the patron program as well as a mention of volunteering to pay sponsorship for his site as well as that of Rene and International Dial. There was also a question by another poster whether the WTF Sales Forum violated the posting rules; Tom had replied that it did not; a minimum Patron program payment of $10 per year permits one to post in the Sales Forum. I was preparing an additio

@@@Incoming / Returning to AP after my short Safari trip years ago @@@
A few years back, I was bless to acquire an AP Safari, which at the time was an awesome piece for me. I then ran across a Panerai 233 dot a few months later, fell in love and wanted that one instead, so on the trading block the AP went(I know that there is no comparison between the two, but once I locked in on it, there was no stopping). Oh! by the way I ended up selling that one a couple of weeks after ( I got buyers remorse ). This past weekend I was in San Francisco watch shopping mainly for some Rolex gold (Mike/Kilyung and Tom/tkerrmd inspired) then I came across the AP line in two different AD's, one of them was Shapur Mozaffarian (great selection). I keyed in on one in particular, tried it on, it was a match made in heaven, so I planned on getting it as a X Mas gift to myself along with my wife's approval. I figured that I should give one of our trusted sellers a call to see if they had one and what do you know, one had just came in.It should be here in the morning, just
