I have been a member about 12 days now, I thought this would be a good time to introduce myself, my name is Teddy Smail, I am 46 years old and I started collecting watches about 2 years ago. In the last year I really started to pay attention to what type of movement the watch had.  So you can tell I am still learning.  I have sold a couple of watches on E-bay and the rest to friends .  I am a person that cares about his reputation.  Like I told Skipdawg the first day I joined this place, it's just too cool, I tip my hat to you guys, who developed this page.  The respect and honesty, that's what I like, people just keeping it SIMPLE.  I guess I better stop, I know I will never here the end of it. So here are some pictures of my new Zeno (black & red) Airplane Diver I got about week ago. Also thanks to Oscar, Paxman and Skipdawg for answering all my Newbie questions.  I want to add that I am a Die hard DODGER, LAKER AND RAIDER FAN SINCE 1971, TO THE BONE.

As a fan of the miserable Giants this season, I've got to say Grr....... a Dodgers fan!  ;)

Actually the Dodgers skid right now gives Giants fans, who have nothing to hope for this season, a little hope that maybe, just maybe without odd luck there is a slim possibility they can pass the Dodgers this season (which is all a Giants fan really cares about anyways).  hehe

Thanks for posting pics of the pepsi zeno- its a beauty.

What I like about the Dodgers is YOUNGSTER'S were loaded Ed Collitee, or what ever is name is, did not trade the farm away.  The Jason Schimit or what ever his name was not a bad signing, the arm was still clocked at 97 last year(I no I watch him pitch against the Dodgers).  You just don't go from 97 to 82 in a 6 months time frame. Now the Juan Pierre signing, or what ever is name is, now that was a pure Bone Head signing if I ever seen one.  I will tell you this, and this is oooold school way, I will always route for, who ever wins out of are Division, so if the Giants win the Division, I will route for them.  I never route out of are Division, and I never route for anybody out of state.  I live in this state and proud of it. But I would never want to sound disrespectful, or disrespect anybody, take for instanced my brother in-law routes for the Yankees and the Boston Celtics and he lives in Calif and never set foot in both of those States, oh ya I respect him as a sports fan. When the Rams moved away, I could not route for them anymore, no way.  But back to your team, your General Manager is one of the best, you just have an old team.  Once you get rid of Barry Balco, or what ever is name is,  I see you guys contending, like real quick.  I think you have 2 youngster's (pitchers) that are on the club now and I know one is clocked at 99 to 100 mph, he's no joke.  So theres my take on the Dodgers and Giants.

Calf sports ROCKS, THE BEST ya ya ya.......

Actually the reason why the Giants did not re-sign Schmidt was because he was a huge injury risk.  He is still a good pitcher, just not as good as he was three or four years ago.  His fastball took a dive and right now I'd put it in the 92-94mph category, not 97 (which he did have in the Cy Young contending season a few years ago, when I think Gagne won it).  The kid on the Giants who was clocked at 99-100mph is Tim Lincecum and he's a real gem, with a great 95mph+ heater (its a two seamer to boot, not even a four seam fastball), a wicked curve, and he's working a changeup that behaves more like a splitfinger into his repertoire as well.  The other young guy is hard luck loser Matt Cain, who pitches like a stud but gets zero run support. 

While I am a fan of Barry Bonds, I hope the Giants do not sign him next season - he simply isn't worth the $20+ million he'll likely ask for, and if he knows whats good for him, he'll retire as a Giant in San Francisco where the fans actually appreciate him, instead of to boos and jeers at another team.

Well, next is the Orsa 3T, The Ocean7 LM-7 and I want a Zeno Army Diver. I am still undecided but will probably buy the Ocean7 LM-6 as well.

Yes I want the new Ocean 7 LM-6 I looked at it last night on their web and that's just so neat how their going to let you pick all the colors for the bezel and the face.  I like the nauticfish 1000.  I am trying to pickup an Enzo EM050 with the notch bezel, but all Enzo has is the smooth finish.  He told somewhere in Sept for the one I want.  He told me he was out of stock on the EM001.  I did not ask him when those (EM001) will be in stock. The Orsa Monstrum (blue) Ya I got on that list too, YA.

I am undecided about the LM-6 due to the use of C-1 lume. I am a lume freak and C-1 just don't get it for me. I work night shift half of the year and I like lume. I think C-3 should of been used on the LM-6 as it would of looked great on every dial color.

That is the ONLY complaint I have about the LM-3. Everyone thinks C-3 wouldn't of looked good on the blue dial but I disagree. I think it would of looked fine. My Seamaster had C-3 lume and it looked great. I think the use of C-1 on the LM-6 has changed a fews want for that piece. It sure is beautiful though.

Yes I see your point, when I work overtime which covers 2:00 pm to 10:00 pm.  I have had watches where the Lume was good, or not so good. Thanks for bringing something to my attention I did not realize the grades of Lume like C-1 or C-3.

What I want to no is just how big this watch Lm-6, is going to be 44mm or 50mm with including the case and how thick will it be.  How wide will the band be. The movement I'm not sure maybe swiss eta 2824, 2893,or sellita sw200?

I am still looking for the thickness specs. In regards to the other specs it looks like it is 44mm without the crown guard. It measures 42mm from 12:00 to 6:00 and 44.5mm from 10:00 to 4:00. The band appears to be 24mm (Said same as LM-3, it is 24mm) and from what I remember they will use ETA movements. 2824's in the regular watch and 2893's in the GMT's

Hey Teddy nice grab on the Zeno! I've seen those up and they are really great blocky buggers. Enjoy it to the fullest! Dig the pix too... looks like a great locale!

It is great having you here at 3T and I look forward to hearing more from you in the future.
