Me and any watch is a bad mix, but I still like one. Before the titanium one I had one which cost €10. Trouble is webbing and leather irritate my skin, though not as badly as nickel does - that really sets me itching. The €10 watch got abandoned when my wrist began to swell

The titanium was just great. Until it broke .

It wasn't very expensive either - I'd hoped he buy me a solar powered one, but he knows what I'm like with watched so saved his money .

He had a look at CDG today but said all they had there was bling. So we'll keep looking. I know none of the jewellers around here have titanium watches.

Thanks I'll do that later. I'm on the netbook now.

Glad you have another one lined up for after your hols. I hope they really do have it for you straight away.

Enjoy your holiday!

How did you find out the date of manufacture?

Sorry to hear that Mike. I have heard of one other replacement with stains but they showed up fairly quickly, certainly at a lot less than 1000 shots.


Mine is now at well over 2000 shots and luckily no signs of staining. A great chunk of crud yes, but no staining.

Captive polar bears are often anything but white. The hollow hairs can get filled with dirt or algae which turns them green .

The cubs father and grandmother, who do have the swimming pool, are a similar colour. Their mother is pretty white and they were white when they first appeared outside. If there had been a keeper around I would have asked about it.
The zoo in question is about an hour drive away so too far to visit too often sadly.

My watch broke late Friday evening. My husband sent an e-mail straight off to Amazon about it and got a reply the same evening - at gone 11pm.

Saturday we got an e-mail with the details of how to return it. Monday I posted it, yesterday another e-mail to say it had arrived and we'd get our money back. Today money credited to credit card.

Fantastic service from Amazon, TNT and Royal Mail.

Now to find another titanium watch.

It may be evolution in progress .

But I think they are just very dirty .
They aren't allowed in the swimming pool yet.

Their Mum clearly doesn't use Persil but here are 4 month old Siku and Sesi.
No idea which is which .

Yes they really are that colour. A month ago they were very white, but I couldn't get to the zoo then .

Win 7 doesn't ship with PSE.
Some laptop makers add an older version of it to all the other bumph they fill their laptops with. They never put the newest version on for free.
