As per the title.

Looking for this jumper but in wool like gen not the cotton version.

Any sellers for those?

Hi folks, any idea how I can clean this yellow stain? Bleach didn't work.

I'm having a few issues with TyreLeader.ie and was hoping for some advice.

I recently bought 4 new budget tyres (€90 each) as my old ones were worn out. I'm planning to change my car early next year, so I didn't want to spend a fortune.

After fitting them, I noticed severe vibrations at 100–120 km/h. The garage re-balanced the wheels and swapped the tyres front to back, but they had to use unusually large amounts of balancing weights and said this could indicate defective tyres.

That didn't help so I then paid €120 for road force balancing. The left wheel achieved a good road force value (5.0), but still required 115g of weights. The right wheel still needed around 100g, which the garage said strongly suggests a tyre defect.

I opened a claim with TyreLeader, but they require me to send the tyres to the manufacturer for inspection, which could take weeks or even months (their words). During that time I'd have to buy another set of tyres (around €400) just to keep the car on the road.

Is this standard practice? I expected the retailer to replace the tyres first and deal with the manufacturer themselves. Has anyone had a similar experience?

The second issue is their warranty. Last weekend I picked up a nail, and the tyre is beyond repair (I posted about it previously). I bought their tyre warranty which is explained on their website as per the screenshot so was expecting it to cover this, but they replied:

So it seems they're treating a normal puncture as negligence, making the warranty effectively useless. Has anyone successfully claimed under their warranty?

Hi folks, I have a screw in the rear tyre. Went to the garage to remove it but they said it's too close to the edge of the tyre so cant6be repaired and the tyre needs to be replaced. The thing is I bought set of 4 tyres 3 weeks ago and would need to replace both rear tyres which is simply shite. Ty tyre is slowly loosing pressure as well like 2psi a day. Can't this be somehow fixed or the replacement is my only option?

Hello all, I know that this watch appears here quite often but I would still appreciate the QC from experienced users.

1. Dealer name: Narikaa
2. Factory name: VSF
3. Model name (& version number): OMEGA No Time To Die 007 Limited Edition VSF v7
4. Price Paid: PRICE $558USD + $45USD shipping
5. Album Links: https://imgur.com/a/VqHLBYd
6. Index alignment: This is where I have some concerns. From 7 o'clock the minutes are sightly misaligned to the bezel. Apart from this I reckon it's ok.
7. Dial Printing: No issues here I believe. Logo appears straight and I can’t see anything that jumps out. Dial print is clean and clear to me.
8. Date Wheel alignment/printing: N/A
9. Hand Alignment: OK
10. Bezel: Seems to be slightly misaligned with minutes from 7 o'clock until 11 o'clock but probably within tolerance in comparison with other models from factory according my untrained eye
11. Solid End Links (SELs): N/A
12. Timegrapher numbers: daily rate of -4 seconds, an amplitude of 320 degrees, and a beat error of 0.3 milliseconds, indicating good overall performance.
13. Anything else you notice: This is my first replica and first qc so a bit untrained yet. I would greatly appreciate any experienced eyes to advise on this.

Hi folks, I'm having issue with very slow drain in my bathroom basin. It started during the weekend.

​

I firstly used the hair clog remover liquid but no there was no change. I then removed the siphon until it goes to the wall (within blue lines) and there is no clog or hair residue in that part either.

​

Would it be possible that the clog is "further down" behind the wall?

Is there anything else I can do myself before getting the plumber?

What're the small antennas and what are they for?
