Disappointing! I was hoping Bart had a rogue operation going here. Then Bart and Andreas would have to determine King of Clocks (there is none higher), have a dance-off, then hug it out.

Andreas is the skilled one. I am a hack, just peicing together things from wood, plastic and other various bits I have around. I don't particularly want to dance with or hug him, either.

Who the heck brought Cactus into this anyway!?!

Alf - I'll sell you mine...

Analog - Yes, it is Andreas noticed that as well. It's the original one, not a new one. And it's on a custom Delaurian strap, if you know anything about those.

Bart:

I know those straps. Had one when I used to have a Panerai.
Original Proplof is much better tool than the new one.
Cheers fellow horologist.

Tim, you suck. Don't come into my thread unless you have clock questions or have something smart@$$ed to say.

The base is now constructed. And the rubber ring is on the way. Pics to follow soon.

Analog - Shane is a great guy, I consider him a friend. The new PloProf is kinda like a 997GT3 - it is better than the original and fixes it's weaknesses, but loses some of the soul.



Now back OT...
