I'm off to Loch Ness tomorrow so if I could tie it to Nessie we'd get a nice deep reading... not sure I can get any height though.

Thanks mate. Cars and bikes ratshit other losses two numerous to even figure out. Watches ok.Black Monster definitely waterproof. The boys in the club have taken the Harley to see if it will come back.They are also working on Suzuki Swift and Thunder Ute. Cheers Phil Sorry to hear it. I hope you've got plenty of support- people can be at their best when they are given the opportunity to help and can be their worst when they are under stress. |

World traveler/diver update. I received the hideous looking swatch diver the other day...  It's everything the add said it would be- However, I don't like it. The crown is a little dodgy and it would probably work- but it makes it hard to calibrate and set. Rather than drop it encased I'm cement in the ocean- I will probably stick it back on eBay. I have decided instead to see what locations can be snapped with this world climber.  If the mods want to get in touch with me and either start the thread or I can get things started in the Japanese Watch discussion thread. |

Yep. The inner chapter ring is depth meter. Min hand moves to your current depth below 1 m and hour hand does your average or something.
Which seems pointless as at some point you would like to know your minutes dived. It must have that feature also but I have only taken one Down to the bottom of a pool.
Addit. I am more than happy to send this on a world hideous diver tour. Just not confident if it needs to have the hands recalibrate. They are correct now- also not super confident in water resistance there is some dents in the plastic near the seal.
I don't care if the watch dies having fun in the water. It's only really worth the band for me.

I'd be happy to host a watch if we're going to do this is 2017. If the schedule for the watch works out, my wife and I can take it on a cruise in the Caribbean with a shipload of bikers the first week in December.

I wonder if there is any plans to do a class action against Photobucket. They probably have clauses in their terms and conditions, however I'm sure it could be argued.

It's hard to imagine that anyone who took advantage of a free service would be able to claim class action damages when that free service was later withdrawn. |

Josh, when you get bored, please go back and repopulate your posts... The Northside will never die.   If I can recall the "curse of the world traveler" (I think I mentioned that sometime in the thread) if I have enough time on the grid I will try as I have to admit when I get in a trance enough state (interpret as you may) I go back and relive the good times in my life as many of the bad times have been blocked out since birth. I'll miss you guys.  |

No point now I guess 😕 I actually went through most of that thread when I first found WS. It was one of the threads that made me think, "Yeah, this is the place." |

 I don't have to go back and figure out what was what. By some quirk of fate, I was having issues with Photophuket and put all the Traveler pics in Picasa.

If we get enough interest in a 2nd tour, perhaps we can make that happen.
