(Hangs head in shame) I was given the 90th anniversary watch for my birthday. But even I would draw the line at the 'cuckoo' clock! :pDT_Xtremez_35:

I bet S2 has one though.

Looks like the RAF Brand 'guru's are happy to attach the RAF brand name to any old tat. Its the sort of sh1te you would expect to be sold by a dodgy street trader.

I can't decide what to go for

this.....

or this

Although there are only 4999 watches to go so I reckon in about 15 years time that will be 1 each for the remaining serving members of the RAF.

You can stuff the clocks... This is tat at it's purest..It's ace. And with there only being 78 sleeps til santa arrives I've put my order in right now. If anyone has a spare they could post it to me at

I'm just dissappointed that it doesn't play the Dambusters theme, but I am assured that the lighting flashes the Ident code for Biggin Hill.:pDT_Xtremez_21:

Seems E-goat is represented on the cuckoo clock. With ILLBW stood rigidly to attention by the hangar doors. He is doing nothing to contribute to the task while Kevin/Dale is wearing his reflective jacket and pushing what appears to be a wheel barrow of sh!t towards ILLBW. Any other goaters on there??

Is this the biggest wah in RAF history? Surely they cannot believe that anyone would buy this tat; I wouldn't pay a fiver for any of the clocks (cuckoo or otherwise), let alone the tree. Someone came up with this idea, held a meeting, produced prototypes, secured funding, set up a production line, priced them at well above their worth and at no point did someone point at them, laugh, load them into a cannon and fire them into the side of a bus. Unbelievable.

It looks like the sort of tripe Viz advertises for a joke e.g. the Life of Christ in Cats Plate or the Elvis Dambusters Clock Plate of Tutenkhamun.

Check out the whole collection: Tat at £99.96 + p&p

The "Wings of Valour" is a personal favourite of mine and will adorn the mantlepiece until it stops working!

It's quite bad us taking the p155. The RAF should have one of the biggest selling brands going. Every 9-12 year old lad dreams of flying the latest bomber/fighter and we own them around here. perhaps our marketing is a little awry for the target audience I mean a cuckoo clock with spitfires..mmm
Now what self respecting lad wouldn't want a clock that launched brimstone or alarm across the room. Brings a whole new meaning to ALARM clock:pDT_Xtremez_19:

I hope my 7 year old never spots that for sale or else he'll be hounding me to re-decorate his bedroom again.

I do admit to buying the full RAF range of school accessories for him, lunch bag, drinks bottle pencil case etc, but in my defence it's the must have fashion items for his age group at the moment and he's going through a big phase of hero worship right now.
