I am Sam,

you need to use the "direct link" code which would be in your case this:

Thanks DVL, I admit I am an idiot and it doesn't work. What am I doing wrong here?

 

[ThinkBachs]

Here...

Copy-Paste the "Direct" link code in the Links to share this image section

and enter like this...

I'm not a fan of Imageshack, Photobucket makes it much easier by generating codes that can easily do what I did by hand here.

With that done, I'm convinced now that this is a must have watch for me! Thanks for sharing this...

WOW! just WOW, This is the direction I think I am going to head in. Glad to see Hont has them for sure. I see that the newer units have the Calibre 17 marked rotor and what looks to be lume on the hands as well. So now other than the over recessed date it should just about perfect, correct?

Any chance you could charge up the lume and snap a pic in the dark? Dont worry if its a bit blurry just want to get an idea of the brightness of the lume.

How quick was delivery from Hont?

I like the PVD and leather strap/red stitching

 

[XyKo]

Only if they made a smaller version of that leather strap for the Carrera Racing, I'll be all over it.

 

[Lezzare]

I've got mine coming as well from Trevor. Same model. Lets see who receives it first

 

[I am Sam]

ThinkBack, thank you for publishing the "Idiot's guide to posting images" LOL I'll keep this next time around also I noticed that using in caps does not work so that might be the reason why I was not able to at first place. But thanks again!

JustChill Dude, as soon as I get it I will for sure post the lume pics.

Wat44 Dude, Yes that is really nice too but at AD I tried both and decided to go with this one and extra black strap to interchange.

XyKo Bud, since I am on heavy side with bigger wrist even 47mm looks perfect on my wrist, so size was not a problem. But I hear ya if you have smaller wrist then this would look like a wall clock...LOL I'll post wrist pics once I have it.

Lezzare Man, you may going to get it sooner than mine 1) I am in Canada 2) Hont hasn't shipped it yet.
