With respect to hands and rowing…

I’ve tried a few and settled on the Montane Lasso belt, it’s a few quid more than other examples in this thread, but well worth it in my opinion…def no slippage with the ‘chunky’ metal buckle.
Their...
My first bike was an RD125LC, I still have it buried under a pile of rubbish somewhere!
😆 which one is that?
I’ve been training properly again since April. I’m starting to build some decent speed, but I’m nowhere near record territory!
I have had the previous incarnation of this head for years: https://www.manfrotto.com/uk-en/xpro-fluid-tripod-head-with-fluidity-selector-mhxpro-2w/
Scopes have come and gone, but the head (and...

The GS’s are surprisingly good all-rounders - and the recent ones definitely look better, I reckon you’ll have some fun on that 😀
I picked one up after years of sports bikes, it is one of the...
A quick update to show the difference between Seiko and aftermarket hands (though some aftermarket stuff may be way better).
From left to right: hand with SuperLuminova from a Seiko modding...
The following obviously relies on having caller display, but will scupper most scams because they normally will not leave messages.
Do not answer phone calls from numbers you do not recognise.

Thanks for the replies.
I was considering ordering from one or both of the suggestions, but managed to find an original Seiko hand set, hopefully they will be as close as anything else available...
It would be worth it to me, but not because it is a limited edition, it would be because I think it looks way better.
GS does so many limited editions it is crazy.
I’m on 14.7.1 on iPhone X, it hasn’t broken facial recognition for me (yet).
Sounds interesting. I have never used a water rower, how does it compare to the C2?
I have a dynamic (also made by Concept2) and despite it having the same monitor etc as the ‘normal’ C2 it requires...
I am trying to find a set of MM300 style hands, but the main thing I am struggling with is finding a set that matches the standard Seiko lume.
I have tried a set from one of the modding sites (I...
Grand Seiko 'Skyflake' - GS build quality and a little different, but not outrageously so.
One of these should do the job https://www.cousinsuk.com/product/sowar-prima-case-openers?code=C47056
Though I’ve not looked on eBay to see if anyone is selling them individually.
If the need to fold is storage space at work make sure that whatever you go for will fit in to the space available.
I have a Dahon that is great for folding and chucking in the back of a car so...
I saw you had posted in this thread and got all excited that MS might have something interesting in the window 😆
I’m not a fan of this one…I have a yellow dial 6139 and an SKX, to me this looks like their ‘ugly’ offspring 😊
The story behind how this came about is interesting.
I have one, bleddy love it.
I previously had a 6 digit Sub, but did not gel with the case shape and decided I wanted an older TT.
I was originally looking at 5 digit Subs, but having become...
The valeting is probably something to look beyond - it is obviously not ideal, but given that you are not a polisher (neither am I) I’d be inclined to try and look beyond that.
How much would a...
Seat + fixed quickshifter = the bike you wanted…why wouldn’t you keep it and go on the trip you have planned?
Bumble bees do not form colonies like honey bees. Honey bee queens will continue laying eggs for a few years, the workers’ and drones’ lifetimes are much shorter, but the colony will establish in one...
Just capturing what does not work…
The end diameters of Cousins part numbers L9200O and L973620 are too small 😒
I don’t think it has been mentioned above - a set of spanners instead of an adjustable.
Using an adjustable without a) rounding stuff, or b) slipping and hurting oneself will be a challenge for...
