Afraid today many on forum could not tell there ars# from there elboe, just enjoy wearing your watch in good health thats far more important.Your watch looks normal for a watch that has had proper RSC service and polish in its 20 plus years life.

I am confused. Which was it?
As for the watch - I agree with Peter - you appear to have a nice Sub and hope you enjoy it for many years in good health and happiness.

I think the seller sent him a partial refund. A pretty sizable one too...

I would suggest doing a lower body workout twice a week to build up those leg muscles!

Nothing looks sillier than a guy with a massive upper body and spindly little legs.

First time I know that. Live and learn!

Why is that the case? Is it for aesthetic reasons or there is a practical logic behind it?
