Hi,
This thread is amazing.
Can you recomend me a seller for MB starwalker? Please

I'm thinking of ordering this one actually, what do you guys think?

I'm tempted to get me some Polo shirts there. Although my gen Hilfiger polo shirts are very nice, material-wise.

Hi

I got my Starwalkers here ; http://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/6624566816.html?orderId=66924877584476

And I'm pretty happy with them as mentioned above.

Spyderco PM2 arrived this morning and it is pretty much as described, but I haven't had tome to try it yet. A little greasy with oils, but that's a good thing. I won't post pics of this as it is exactly (to my untrained eye) as per the photos on the AE page.

I will do if anyone wants me to though ...

Cheers

G

Thanks for the edit, I didn't realise.

[MENTION=73281]ddmcg2479[/MENTION] how are your Flyknit shoes after a little wear? I actually really like all these Nike Flyknit models, but $50 for fake (well, maybe gen quality) shoes doesn't seem very low.

Only worn them a few times- not been wearing them for the gym just casual wear- for £35 or so I'm more than happy, not sure that money would get a better pair from the high street.

More holiday clothes arriving daily!
RL shorts- again probably would have been better with XXL for my 36 waist but quality is good and $12 a pair:

My fly knits are still in the mail. If the quality is decent I'll buy a few more pairs for every day wear.

Here are some pics of my Nike Free Run 2.0 shoes from AE. Got them for about $25. Wear them more than 2 years. They hold pretty well. The only problems were: Nike logo and some other parts of the sole fell out and there were some sticking threads, but that's an easy fix. Overall the look spot on. Nowadays for that price you can get a pair of Roshe Run or Free 3.0.

A couple of MB pencils arrived today so I thought I'd share a pic. Initial impressions are positive. They seem to be of the same overall quality as the previously-received MB fountain pens, which I've been happy with.

Is the filling system for the Mechanical pencils just like the real MB pencils

I can't say, since I'm not familiar with the gen pencil, but it wouldn't surprise me if they were the same. To advance the lead on the reps you twist the lower part of the pencil to the right - to lock the lead in place, you twist back to the left. The internal lead holder is labeled MB, holds a max of 5 leads and looks to be well made. I snapped some pics for you to take a look for yourself...

This is for my project to learn disassembly & assembly of a watch... I also bought very old (and cheap!) seiko auto from Finland...

Please post pictures and the seiko link too

Could someone please post like a legend to all the different codes as to what brands they are for?
eg. bur = burberry
ome = omega
car = cartier

 

[lolimsoasd]

at least in watch boxes, TUDR was for tudor.
H is usually for Hermes

Montblanc tends to be MB or just the model eg Starwalker but no mention of brand.

Much like watches, i am a huge fan of nice pens. Well browsing the epic Aliexpress thread over on RWG, got me curious and i figured for a few dollars I would give it a try. Last time I experimented with Aliexpress, I received three awesome sets of cufflinks, so i figured what the hell.

In any case - here is what I ordered. Lets see how they look when they come in:

I will keep you guys posted once they come in. If everything looks good, i will share the vendors info

I ordered and recieved the first black and the middle Silver one.....You will not be disappointed

3/5 purchases are now winging their way towards me (allegedly), I'll update when I get them [emoji1]

I've seen it as "mont black" or "montgood" also, but the majority of them are listed as you said.
