I propose to all: Put your Megalodon in a particular scene who would fit the beast! I hope many will come with cool pics. I open it on Spermwhale teeth and Seal fur... Do your best guys!   |

Cool Pics!!!! I looked online for a Fossilized Megalodon tooth large enough to display the watch on.....not cheap! $500 plus bucks, and that would take away from my watch fund for the year! Guess I will have to display it on my wrist!  |

I love number 3 pic! The ice with the Megalodon on top looks sharp looks sharp! What kind of skin is your coat.... I'm still waiting for my Meg to arrive...it has been sitting in customs since the 13th. The USPS does not seem to be in any hurry. I hate this waiting game! |

Been drinking some Bruichladdich 2001 this weekend: Nobody beat the Scotishs on scotch whisky and I will never dare me there:D |

It's a waiting game for the arrival of my 2nd hand Meg.....But as soon as I receive it I'll try to come up with something creative, take a few pics and post. Too bad it is not camping season, I go 3-4 times in the spring/summer for 5-7 days in the wild. I can get some good pics then. Hammerfjord pics really show the spirit of the meg IMHO. Big, Bold, Tuff and Classy! Last edited on Sun Jan 17th, 2010 06:18 pm by DJRHodes71 |

 Personally, my favorite is the #4 when the watch hang on an ice pick, because it's an unusual shot. I was a bit nervous while taking the shot that the watch hook-off , fall , break the thin ice under and go down the fjord a half meter deep: I didn't feel like puting my arm in the water and search for it:D |

There's thousand of possibilities with the winter if you got some ice or snow outside also: I was thinking about taking some shots with the watch half-bading in icy water to but I'll maybe do it next time...It was enough shots and I also should let the place to the others here;) |

joecb wrote:Hammer...fantastic photo's.....where did you get all the teeth? Are they sperm whale? Thanks! Yes, they are sperm-whale teeth: Real ones all of them. The Norwegian whalers was fishing/hunting the sperwhales until 1972(If I don't mistake) and those teeth are from this time. We fish/hunt other whales now who are smaller and got no teeth : The Minke-whales. It happen actualy in waters not so far from where I live... We got killer-whales also but they are protected. Sperm-whale colonies can be observed not so far from where I live, near a big island: Andøya. Last edited on Sat Jan 23rd, 2010 07:43 am by Hammerfjord |

Also some fur paterns are more expensives: Like mine. In Norway the seal is with spotted fur. Mine is Ringed-seal from Groenland(spots in ring pattern) and first quality skins. It needed 7 skins to make my anorak(I am 1.90cm for 100kg) and it was custom-made for me, on my desires, by a professional with long experience(who is a friend) Cost: 2800$(depend of change rate) |

Wow thats pricy but it does look pimp! I dont even think its legal to own something like that in the US. If you take good care of it, it last so many years that the divided year-price is really worth it: In other words, it's an investment. It may look pimp when you hang around with that in a big town as soon there is a cold breez but it look utilitar when you use it in the cold in Alaska or any polar region like where I live. It's an excellent repellent for snow and melted snow(sludge). It's also one of the best breathable and isolator natural material and one don't feel uncomfortable in it in the cold. Many coutries(All EU in fact) have banished the use of seal products even the seal isn't disappearing. It will soon be the source of a seal overpopulation in some regions. The seal eat offcourse a lot of fish and decrease the fishing possibilities for us in some territories where they are concentrated in colonies. In Norway, we shoot seals with special expending bullets, also rifles and charges have to got demanded specs: No other methods are allowed for hunting or "executing". |
