When you convert it to a six, it will be really confusing to tell what time it is.

I'm still waiting for mine. How long did it take to get it? They mentioned up to a month to row a boat to the US from China.

I can't find them on ebay anymore. I think the Porsche lawyers might have caught up to them.

Be careful you don't wind it up past 7 rpm. it'll throw off the timing.

Did you ever notice that for most pictures of a watch in an ad etc. that the time is set at 10 after 10 regardless of local time?

So you stole that picture from an ad?
How do we know your watch is even running? Maybe it's sitting on your dresser on tiny jackstands....

At least it'll be right twice a day...
