Re: Luminor crown operation
I just watched that video and see where the confusion comes from. Whoever made that video doesn't know how that crown guard works. The leaver on the guard compresses the crown into the seal, creating a watertight fitting. By turning the crown while in the locked position you are causing friction bet...

I think you're confusing me with Todd from Aegir [emoji16]deepcdvr wrote:Are you still deep sea diving?
I work in film industry. The last few years, I've been travelling constantly with work, so that is one of the reasons I haven't been able to keep up with the watches.

SAS and Mileata closing

Re: Doxa is in real trouble
I had a look at Maranez website of those Doxa designs, and reminded me of the drawings I did on watchuseek 16 years ago. I remember remember Doxa weren't too happy that I came up with the turquoise Numa version years before they thought of it. [emoji1787][emoji1787] https://www.watchuseek.com/thread...

Re: OCEAN7 RE-LAUNCH
Great to see Ocean7 get a new lease of life. I did a lot of work for Mitch in the early days and met up a few times over at Basel.
Good luck with the company, i hope it goes well for you.

Re: Global slow down...
I’m sorry, Graeme, but that math is making far too many assumptions for my brain. I have to think those who have died may have died fairly quickly, while those who have not yet died may very likely recover. An 11% mortality rate is only accurate if time freezes now. A 4% rate assumes all remaining ...

Re: Global slow down...
Hi guys. I dont want to alarm anyone but I've been looking at the figures and my earlier post where I said the mortality rate was around 4% worldwide is wrong. That 4% is based on the amount of people who have died out of the total amount of people who are sick. But that does not tell the proper sto...

Spain has just gone into lock down. No one can leave their homes except for essential supplies and to go to work.

Re: Global slow down...
Here’s my thoughts, which you are free to take or leave as you choose. It’s correct that, right now, the mortality rate is predicted to be at about 1% worldwide. Of course, we don’t really know, but let’s say for the sake of argument that’s correct. The swine flu (H1N1) is instructive (and it’s wor...
