Just travelled to London to watch The Commitments stage show with the family. Had a great time! :D

Anybody else do anything fun this weekend?

I went for a blast on my old Trophy 900, Dundee, Blairgowrie, Dunkeld, Loch Tay, Loch Earn, Perth then home! The weather was absolutely brilliant!

Weather not good here. Waiting in reception with coffee - the heavens have just opened!

Is that the same Commitments that I'm thinking about (the Irish group?) if so that was a brilliant film,  just when they achieve everything they wanted,  it all falls apart,  shame.

Try that in North Wales and you could lose your licence in a day,  blasting is not allowed,  they have done people here for 31mph.   :judge:

 One of my favorite movies of all time! We just got back from a long weekend in New York City and saw a review for this show playing in London. I also read an article mentioning that there was a follow up book written by the author Roddy Doyle called "The Guts." Although it sounds a little depressing, I might have to check it out....

It's a matter of where and when you do it. Early in the mornings with empty roads in the highlands, and the place to yourself..............brilliant!

My wife and I want to go to London so Badly! Right now, we are only about a 6 hour flight away. But, when we move back to Seattle in the Summer, it will be 9 hours-which seems just soo out of reach!

 

Love the Pic BTW!

      Phinney Walker Mickey Mouse Watch HELP

      By Mercurial · Posted

      I have no experience with this watch, but looking at the pictures from the ebay listing linked above, it looks like the outer metal bezel at the back of the watch may not be part of the case proper.  It looks like the watch and strap are sandwiched together, and an inner case may push out of the rear bezel towards the front of the watch.  A case style similar to the Roamer watches where the crystal, movement and caseback pushed out through the back of an outer bezel, only in reverse - this one may push out towards the front.  To test this, you would need to hold the watch, dial down, supporting the dial side of the watch around the edge of the bezel without touching the bezel itself. Then push down carefully on the inner metal ring you can see at the back of the watch. I’m speculating here, proceed at your own risk. Hopefully someone with hands on experience of these watches can chime in! Best Regards, Mark

      Thanks, Mark. That's the kind of reassurance many of us wanted to hear! Yes, life is unfortunately unpredictable, and it would be a shame if the many dedicated WRT: ers became stranded if, god forbid, something happened to you and WRT stopped working.

      The case back is perfectly aligned to the case and has no provisions for a screwing tool. The T-Sport series has snap on backs.

      For me the text looks too aligned and with no obvious way to grip as a screw back.

      There’s no indents & there’s no little groove to pry it off anywhere! So I don’t know if it’s screw down or pry off 👍
