Need a little help...

[Rawhyde]

I haven't logged in since November 2012, and wanted to browse around a little. How can I get my account to work again? Can a mod please "reactivate" it?

Sorry to post this in an inappropriate forum, but there were only a few places it would allow me to post anything...

I was going to post a pic of my 16613 that I posted unboxing pics of back in Sep 2007, but the forum wouldn't let me manage my pictures or access my own profile.

Pls help.

Welcome back!

I suggest you hit the "report post" button and ask a moderator for help

Welcome back.

Welcome back! Looking forward to seeing the pictures

INC, I just reported my own post! I hope it works

Brandrea, I'll post it when/if I get my account access fixed.

Another thing I'm looking forward to is posting up some pics of a Le Jour Rallye Chronograph that I bought 25 years ago and finally got around to getting it serviced and brought back to life. It's a cool looking watch, so I'd like to share some pictures and maybe see if anyone around here knows anything about the brand or history of this model. This is a strange piece. The same watch is branded Le Jour and sometimes Yema or even Wesley's (in the case of Mario Andretti's watch). Some watches say RALLYE (like mine), and some say RALLY.

In the 2010's or thereabouts, Yema did a reissue of this watch and added a date complication and an automatic mechanism. It uses a 7753, so It's about twice as thick as the vintage ones.

There isn't a ton of information out there on these watches, the best article I found is on Fratello Watches regarding the Mario Andretti chronograph. I believe mine is a reference 9312 and it's running a manual wind Valjoux 7730.

Anybody know anything about these watches?

Craig, your account is active as you are able to post. Might try signing off and back on again. I can’t see any reason why you wouldn’t be able to access your info or post pics.
Your new ISP might be causing the problem.
If all else fails send a PM to the forum administrator lol-x

I can see my PMs from way back. I can't send a PM to you or anyone else. All
forums show up as "PRIVATE" under the last post column except for:

When I attempt to access the control panel, I get this message:

Rawhyde, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Does TRF now charge a membership fee now? I relaunched my browser, signed out and back in, and even tried Firefox with the same results.

I'd be happy to take this to PMs or email, but I have a new email address since I was active here and PMs are not working for me.

If you can see my profile, you can email me at [email protected]

EDIT: I was able to update my email address, but I can't see or access any of the rest of my profile.

Crag I’d reach out to lol-x
Keep in mind he’s in Australia so it could be a bit until he gets back to you.

I was able to update my email address, but I couldn't see any other part of my profile. After I did that, I got an automated email from the admin. I responded to that email with the gist of the problem I was experiencing.

Thank you for trying to straighten this out for me!

No problem, I’m sure Steve will be able to sort it out.

I notice under his status it doesn’t say “TRF” member, just “member”. Maybe that’s denoting something funky going on?

Also, maybe your inbox is over capacity?

Could be the case that the account was inactive for a decade plus, I’ve been here longer than that but don’t remember any changes. Then again I’m lucky to remember to put pants on these days!

It appears you’re a 2025 pledge member now. So try to send PM’s and make the posts you planned and see if it works.

Great looking Submariner, welcome back

[Rawhyde]

Here's a quick shot of the LeJour Chronograph I mentioned in Post #5.

I'll start up a new thread about it in the non-Rolex section, but here's what it looks like...

Great looking watch, never seen one like it. Would be interested in the thread you start about it.
