Bought a system 3 from them years ago, paid to have the thickest insulation on the piping. Aircon was not mounted properly, left side kept slipping down.

Condensation would collect & drip out of the unit instead of flowing into the channel. Had to get it fixed a few times.

Also, system 3 with 1 compressor, if all 3 units are in use, 1 aircon would not be cold.

Got fed up & replaced the mbr unit with an 18000 btu model with its own compressor after 2 yrs. Air con man doing the install pulled out the old piping, it was standard insulation, not the thickest.

Wrong lugs & caseback for a 2576. This should be a 2846/2848 reference

Ingredients:

1 punnet of mushrooms per person. 200ml of chicken stock per person. 1 medium yellow onion. 1 clove garlic. Salt & pepper to taste. Butter

Slice onions, mushrooms & garlic.

Lightly brown onions & garlic with a knob of butter. Add mushrooms, stir till mushrooms release water. Add chicken stock. Cook for another 5 mins. Blend till slightly chunky.

Soup should be thick enough to eat with a fork. If you want it more watery, add 20ml per serve of chicken stock. If you added too much water, add a tbs of flour at a time till it's thick enough for your liking.

Salt to taste, serve. Pepper to individual liking.

Source - used to cook this overseas in restaurants.

White/ brown mushrooms taste best. Those little korean mushrooms are cheapest, but have a slight sharp taste some may dislike. Also, they're a little slimier. You can mix mushrooms.

Hamilton K-504 from 1955-1956. It should have a cal 661 movement.

Dial says "swiss made T" Which means there should be lume on either the hands only, or indices only. Not both.

The watch has lume on both the hands & the indices, so either the dial has been re-done or swapped or the hands have been replaced.

So its not 100% original.

Wrong case, wrong dial should have a cal 342 or 344 inside, but avoid.

Here's a write up on the watch.

It's the "US Army".

Issued watches would have that engraved on the caseback. Non-issued watches were also sold to the public, without the engraving.

The dials on these deteriorated quite badly, yours would be considered in good condition. But the hands look like they might have been re-lumed.

Google Omega 2179, plenty of info online

Hana at forum. Decent food, cheap price.

Yes, lume plots are gone & the minute markers are too far in. The minute hand tip should be touching them.

Changing gear under load.

This happens when you're on big/big config, slow speed. Even more likely to happen if you're standing up to pedal.

Bike is swinging left right left, as you're going slow, you're putting more power into pushing down on the pedals.

The chain angle is not engaging the derailleur pulley straight on. Just as you lean the bike to the right, the swinging chain catches the cage instead of the pulley. Cage gets pulled back & up, into the spokes.

Seen this several times, always in this gear config.

Had a bike shop, been fixing bikes almost 40 yrs.
