Linked to my other thread on bracelets, I’m not sure I can stomach AD pricing for a bracelet so I’m considering the non-OEM options. Any recommendations for a good quality mesh bracelet? I’d be after...
Yes, very wise way of spinning it!
Thanks all…yeah, that’s what my suspicions were…I just couldn’t understand how they got away with selling them at close to real prices and also why so many satisfied customers. I guess particularly...
Quite a few times, I've bought secondhand watches on straps that I would prefer on the OEM bracelet and as we all know, bracelets from Omega, Breitling etc can be hideously expensive! Looking for a...
Can't really blame them. Through savvy marketing they build a brand with no history at all that put them in the same segment as Omega, Breitling etc, with boutiques in many major cities. I guess they...
I'm a fan of Breitling. Although I think Breitling hit the sweet spot with earlier designs of the SO, I don't hate the current 42mm version...it's just big and bold. I do prefer the Heritage versions...
I think Viper was a limited run too. I'd bet in-house to outsourced movement percentage is pretty small and not particularly economically palatable to the new investors, particularly when you read...
I've had almost instant responses to emails from Marc. My last enquiry was about 6 weeks ago. I've also been to their Newark shop a number of times, although my last visit was a couple of years ago.
I should probably have said "majority" don't use in house...I can't imagine the percentage by ownership by number of watches of in-house Bremonts by is high.
When I started reading the article, I expected to read about proper in-house watchmaking. The article starts talking about George Daniels and Roger Smith but then it turns out 'British watchmaking'...
Bought from them many times...they are my go-to dealer when buying new. Highly recommended.
Wouldn’t cross my mind to be honest. I think the chances of Bremont instantly collapsing are zero and they also don’t use in house movements so no problem there either!
Don’t think you can go wrong with Hawksmoor. I’m also fond of the Wolesley.
Surprised he's in an A400. Wonder who trumped him and is using 32 Sqn's Falcons.
Ah, I see…yes, I can appreciate why you would be looking for the Tudor bracelet then. The president bracelet definitely doesn’t have the weight of an OEM Tudor and the clasp is stamped. I found it a...
Could you not just get the 1450 bracelet with end links from Uncle Straps?

I notice quite a few models on sale with substantial discounts at the moment at Goldsmiths.
But if you don't make a profit, your investors need to be convinced that the profit they are chasing will be realised at some stage otherwise they'll pull the plug. For me, bringing in a new CEO and...
As someone said previously, it's not so much of an issue for a limited amount of time if you are investing in the company to grow instead if taking profit. They can keep focussing on growth as long...
As a brand with no actual history prior to 21st century, I'd say doing a u-turn on design and branding is pretty high risk. Get it wrong and as many people have said, you offer little more than a...
It's always probably safest to take a couple of pictures, but I thought evidence of posting was covered if you kept your Certificate of Posting (printed receipt).
Thing is, a photo or even a video...
When would you need to post a TV though?
Considering the space taken up by other unnecessary junk I own, watch boxes are the least of my problems. If you reach the stage of decluttering where a few watch boxes are your concern, you are...
It’s quite clear there is something up with those links…the adjacent pieces that make the link don’t touch each other in your photo which indicates the screw isn’t fully screwing into the tube. I’m...
Yes, I suspect it is unnecessary work, but I guess the manufacturer will always argue they are just bringing the watch back to original state...so if they see even a minor imprefection, they'll...
