Nice score?

[Edbear]

40th Anniversary of the original Kawasaki Z1, Commemorative watch. Only 903 made, (guess why?), and Europe had first dibs.

Kawasaki NZ managed to get hold of 10! I got number 180 of 903. Picked it up this morning. Leather case, engraved on the back and individually numbered. Nice watch!

[Edbear]

And no, that's not my pink tool case under the box, it's my daughter's... :nono:

[Nova.]

watches are for gay men.

[Gremlin]

I'm a product of the digital age... can't really tell the time with those watches without counting round the dial, 5... 10... etc :lol:

Stopped wearing a watch altogether a few years ago when bikes had clocks, computers, phones etc.

[Katman]

Made in China.

[Edbear]

This is for an investment, I don't plan on wearing it. I do prefer analogue though. My work watch is a combination so best of both world's.

[Katman]

You're really too much Ed.

Isn't everything.?

At least we can always count on you to turn up and make a fool of yourself... :weird:

My Tag isn't.

[Road kill]

Give ya' 50 bucks for it.:niceone:

[HenryDorsetCase]

My Tag isn't.

I am a bit of a watch fetishist though unable to indulge to the extent I would like to.

For quality and value and service (sorry Ed, this is waaaaay offtopic, and nice watch by the way) I heartily recommend Christopher Ward. http://www.christopherward.co.uk/

[Edbear]

My Tag isn't.

Neither is my Seiko, or my Remy, but my Mamba is and it's a good combination watch...

You didn't click the link, did you?


Give ya' 50 bucks for it.:niceone:

That won't even get the sticker on the cardbard box it came in... :msn-wink:

[Katman]

and nice watch by the way

Really?

I saw a watch with garish graphics, numerals that look they belong on a five years olds watch and a strap that looks like it's made of cheese.

Not swiss cheese though.

[Edbear]

I vote Katman the lamest troll on KB. :zzzz:

[Nova.]

you paid like 600 for a watch.. you stupid stupid man.

[Edbear]

you paid like 600 for a watch.. you stupid stupid man.

You were there, right..? :rolleyes:

But you are wrong, as with much of what you post... As for your stupid comment, you come second to Katman, but only just. :stupid:

[BMWST?]

you paid like 600 for a watch.. you stupid stupid man.

you can easily spens far far more than that.Go and have a look at one of these,each to his own.

Cool collectable.

40th Anniversary? Bit Harley - surely 50 years is an anniversary. Bloody HD rolls out anniversaries for any year!

[bogan]

I dunno ed, Kawasakis aren't known for coping with the ravages of time well... :pinch:

Awww, they're just trying be clever and chuck off at me. Shame they missed it when "clever"was handed out... :msn-wink:

They made their name making watch straps Ed.....

....not watches.

when you heard they were handing out brains you thought they said trains and asked for one of them instead.

[Hitcher]

Shame the face isn't K green. As a Z rider who likes analogue watches, I could be persuaded to wear one.

[Edbear]

Let's just accept I know more about the watch than you do. :yes:

I know what Hirsch does and I know the movement they used. Hirsch made the watch.

[Katman]

I know what Hirsch does and I know the movement they used.

Does it involve the word 'bowel'?

[Edbear]

when you heard they were handing out brains you thought they said trains and asked for one of them instead.

You're getting closer to Katman each post... :clap:


Shame the face isn't K green. As a Z rider who likes analogue watches, I could be persuaded to wear one.

Yeah, but as it's specific to the Z1 they used those colours from '72.

Fact is that regardless, no-one can buy one now, they are all taken as far as I've heard. I do know where one spare one is, but he's not letting on. :shutup:

[Edbear]

Like where your posts come from, you mean? :2thumbsup

[Katman]

Wow, water resistant to 5ATM.

You can wear that one in the shower Ed.

[Edbear]

Yeah, of course they meant it to be a dive watch, not a commemorative biker's watch, eh..? What a fail! :rolleyes:

[Mom]

I could be persuaded to wear one.

I used to be a watch wearer, I have a lovely gold number that cost my ex a bomb :pinch:

Dont wear one at all now. Truth be told I cant read the time on it actually :o

[Katman]

Yeah, of course they meant it to be a dive watch, not a commemorative biker's watch, eh..? What a fail! :rolleyes:

If they put a Suzuki logo on it, I'm sure you'd be first in line Ed.

it won't be long before there's an iphone app for this 'commemerative' Z900 watch that i could put on my iphone when i want the time, if i had an iphone of course.
how deep can iPhone's go Katman?

I'm not sure how old you are (not saying I'm old), but there is something juvenile about pulling out your phone to check the time. So much more class having a nice watch, not to mention quicker. I wear one when ever I'm not at work.

[Edbear]

I used to be a watch wearer, I have a lovely gold number that cost my ex a bomb :pinch:

This one got large face, big numbers, I can even read it without my specs! Have you got your expensive one framed in memorium?

About as deep as Katman... :lol:

[Akzle]

what faggotry.

i'll stick to my brietling super avenger chronograph. it's probably worth more than your bike, ed.

[Edbear]

i'll stick to my brietling super avenger chronograph. it's probably worth more than your bike, ed.

And you bought it for its practicality, eh? Like you use all its features, nothing to do with ego at all. :innocent:

Thanks for the red. I count on the usual types giving me red to confirm I'm in the right, so keep it up Katman, Axzle, imdying, when it's you lot, it's a compliment to me. :yes:

[HenryDorsetCase]

Bullshit. Like you have a Breitling

[Swoop]

Nice.
I prefer analogue. Much nicer than a digital display readout.

[Grubber]

when you heard they were handing out brains you thought they said trains and asked for one of them instead.

Oh dear....a bit of a fail there lad.
Its "you thought they said trains and missed yours" NOT asked for one!!!
never mind! it was a nice try anyway.:facepalm:

[Edbear]

Yeah, trolling and insulting has to be done right or it loses it's effectiveness. Never mind, Nova will bounce back and try something else, he's very trying... :shifty:

i think we should try again ed, i think it will fit this time. :love:

I thought it was " thought they said trains and asked for a slow one"

Ya could be right! either way, he shagged it up!<_<

I got me one of them, the 2005 version though. Number 4788 of 5002. Cost a lot more than what I'd spend on a watch, but I couldn't resist.

I got fed up with buying cheap watches that went through batteries far too often, so got a Seiko Solar, cost me $450.00, (discounted to me of course), :innocent: which, when added up against what I'd spent over the years for watches and batteries was quite cheap.

The Kawasaki Commemorative Z40, I think is a steal, but time will tell.

Hope you didn't pay too much, I see a couple on ebay for $400.

[Edbear]

Would that be USD? If so a lot more than I paid. Regardless I expect them to go up over time, I've no plans to try to make a quick buck on it.

[jellywrestler]

cost me $450.00, (discounted to me of course), you're not one of these people who strut around and expect everybody to automatically give you a discount just cause you're youare you?

Yeah thought as much.

Not that it means anything but one of my nephews works for Rolex in France.

Don't know why France,I thought they were made in Sweden but what do I know.

Still think your watch is pretty cool :yes:

[Edbear]

No, just because I ask for one... :yes:
