I've actually found that buying an SA has done something to me - I'm suddenly finding that my Steelfish now feels too small!!! :shock: The Steelfish may go to help fund the Motors that I need. (Notice I NEED it, not just want it! :wink: )

Well so far, my wife's needs are being looked after :wink:

And all it took was a custom order Cockpit Lady and a new car :shock:

If only there was some money left after that I think I'd have got the right to buy a few more 'Lings :D

:mouthdrop: Think I might be getting off light in comparison! (Although we'll probably have to go to Paris to get the shoes she wants..... oh the hardship of it all! :wink: )

I know! I never thought I'd even consider it. I blame the SA! :wink:

Hmmmm, you just want a polishing guinea-pig Justin! :wink: I wouldn't mind giving it a go, but I reckon it'd be a weekend with a dremel and some Cape Cods. Not sure I fancy that too much....

You've caught me red handed Driver, I don't blame you for not trying it. I'm still debating it myself.

In case you are interested there's a company called International Watch Works ( http://www.angelfire.com/blues/andcamey ... tpage.html ) who do custom mods to watches (including PVD coating, bead blasted finishes, re-luminizing, etc) so I'm pretty sure somewhere like that could do a decent job of polishing it up. Their prices look good too, and I've seen an example of their workmanship on a watch that was for sale on eBay. Damn fine it looked too. Just a thought.....
