    I think the bracelet is often the weak link, pun intended, of these Ali-Express watches. At the moment I’m wearing a Steeldive SKX007 homage on a Hirsch Heavy Calf, Breitling spec, strap plus...

    Very nice combination. It’s a strap profile, leather finish and colour that I really like. Do you mind sharing what it is? Thanks.

    I’ve had five of the pre-Evo E79362 in all the colour variations, starting with black and now back with black again. In each case I’ve personally renewed the battery at least once and it’s very...

    I cannot see it happening but if I ever had to reduce to one watch only it would probably be one of my Moonwatches, likely the one with the (original, black) Snoopy dial. It looks really smart on its...

    Probably sorted by now but I know that, at least on Zuludiver straps, the keepers are not solid. They are merely folded with the ends inside the canvas and can easily be pulled out with two fine...

    Absolutely this. I haven't needed numbers on a watch since early primary school and that was a long time ago. I generally hate Arabic dials with a vengeance and this particular one is worse than most.

    It looks like the BMW possibly hit the pump rather than the Fiat. I can imagine the customer filling the Fiat to be sufficiently startled to swing around with the nozzle spewing petrol over the back...

    I wouldn’t over emphasise the ‘slimmer’ case of the quartz version. I’ve never had a 2264.50 but I have had both the quartz and auto version of the 2531.80, at one stage both versions at the same...

    Great picture of a great watch. I’ve had the auto version for almost 19 years and still love it. I also have the 2531.80, the original, painted dial Bond watch. IMO the nicest watches Omega ever...

    I buy watches to wear them, so buying new makes no sense for me, when I can buy a close to mint example at approaching half price. It's been my experience that many watches bought new are seldom...

    Me too, although admittedly one of my three has an original Snoopy dial, just because Watchco were selling them years ago for £80 and it seemed rude not to buy one.

    Many thanks to both.
    The Watch Obsession strap looks like a Hirsch Medici, deployant model, so I think I'll give that a try out.
    The Strap Tailor straps look good too - I hadn't thought about...

    Tudor BB GMT / fitted strap

    I have been searching for a suitable strap as an alternative to the bracelet on my BB GMT. I've tried a couple of regular leather straps and a 2 piece Zulu Sailcloth. Both leave a huge gap that I...
