Does anyone recognise this movement? It's engraved with the Omega logo highlighted in gold on the stainless back plate.
It's been suggested that the watch is a fake but this is the first time I've...
Thanks, a serious conversion!
Superb work, I'm very tempted to try it with mine, how much did the parts cost?
I hope this is the right place to post this. I have a Luminox Commander and the locking pin on the bracelet clasp has gone missing. Is there anyone you can recommend to replace it?
Any suggestions...
Thanks dom.
Hi guys,
I'm after a little advice if possible. My son-in-law has just found his Dad's Rolex and would like to keep it as a family heirloom. It looks to be about 1950's and the dial is marked...
That thread on WUS was really interesting, how do they do it for the money? My thanks to all who increased my knowledge.

I've seen a couple come up for sale recently and they look to be good value, is there a UK importer or do you have to bring in from Russia etc?
Any thoughts on quality would be greatly appreciated....
Thanks for the link DJ.

Can you recommend anyone for a new battery and pressure test on a dive watch?
Many thanks,

The case back is solid and access to the works is via the bezel which will lever off. I don't feel I...

I have always had mechanical watches but several years ago, for exactly the reasons you have listed, I decided to bite the quartz bullet. I settled on a SMP 2264 and it's the watch I always reach for...
Thanks to Michael for bringing this subject up. It has always fascinated me that watches are rated at 50mts but when you read the manufacturers literature it qualifies that as meaning nothing more...
Railmaster for me although I prefer my SMP.
Another vote for black, it's a timeless classic.
Damn and after all that work too! still an inspiration to the rest of us.
That is an amazing transformation, totally 1st class work!
Excellent work but I think the orange version just edges in front.

I use Mer Professional Cleaner, it's advertised for use in the car industry (i.e. leather seats) but works a treat on all leather. Like most cleaners, try it on a small area first to see how it...
To sell on British Blades you need to have 100+ posts or be a contributing member, however I suspect there will be little interest for this type of knife. Posting from France to UK should present no...
