s2rrr Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Radioactive suppositories for all the use they are you may as well shove up the up your arsenic. :d TEL lead product to enhance octane in fuels, highly poisonous and now gone. The Radioactivity which can be ingested is probably more harmful than the stuff that penetrates as it may be thought to be "harmless" and stopped by paper. Alpha over Gamma etc breathe Alpha in and its a long term clock ticking. Gammas quick though. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norman Verona Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Funny how many of who like 7's also have old chronographs and cameras. I have my first Omega Speedmaster which I bought new in 1976. I love it. I then bought an Omega De Ville chronograph about 10 years ago. I had to search London Omega stockists for the 1976 model as the new one had been launched and it was battery. I found, what must have been the last Mk IV in Watches of Switzerland in Bond Street. It was £140. Turns out it's a very rare model as it is in a Seamaster case. It was valued at £2000 10 years ago and the valuer said it would be worth £3000 if it hadn't had such a hard life. I hadn't taken it off from 1976 to 2003 so it is a bit marked and scratched. The new De Ville. No wonder my watches get scratched! Can't find a picture of teh Speedmaster on the web. Give me a minute or 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s2rrr Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 I'm a Breitling man myself Norman picked up a very nice Navitimer some years ago and actually wear it maybe twice a year. Also have a bellows Kodak camera which is a nice collectable. You got that spy camera on again . Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
