Is it easy to remove the back from a speedbird watch? I need to make a minor adjustment to the accuracy. What tool is best to use to do this - and I am guessing anti-clockwise to undo and clockwise...

Is there a special tool I need to open a watch up or anything you'd recommend to do it? I need to regulate my SB3 as its a little fast at the moment.

The back of the watch does it screw on and...

Does anyone have any info on what I need to open up the Speedbird 3 and to regulated it down a few clicks?

I'm running about 5 mins fast every 6 weeks.

Got the new strap on now. Its a grey/navy I like to think raf style strap.

The strap comes round quite a bit to the other side of the dial but I have pushed it slightly further up my arm on a...

got it now!

Had to use a 1.2mm flat head screwdriver on the other side but it popped out quite easily!

Thanks.

I've tried doing it on just one side and pulling on the bracelet at the same time, pulling out, up and down, and it just wont come away no matter which part I try so will have to have a go at doing...

How do you get the metal strap off the speedbird III? I've had it well over a year now. I got a few other straps when I bought the watch but loved the metal one it came with so much I haven't...

I've got it clocked. Had to remove 4 links but it fits perfect now. Thanks!

Now... Can anyone recommend what tool to get for when I want to remove the bracelet and try other straps on it?

I don't know how many produced was it 300? If so then if they continue selling at that rate then they should all be gone in about 11 days time. Well for the black dial anyway. Not sure how many Ivory...

Thanks. What do you do then, is it just a case of pushing inwards at both sides? I think it is all one bar that connects the links isn't it?

Can anyone advise on how to remove links on the SB3? Can you do it with small screwdriver or do you need to buy a special tool?

Thanks,
John

Now have the SB3! It's fantastic! Quality is first rate, and I think if it said Breitling or Omega on it, it would be costing £1500 - £2000.

I just need to remove about 4 of the links on the...

I have finally got around to buying online a SB3. Hopefully fingers crossed its in stock and should have it soon. I will no longer be watchless. No longer having to constantly pull out mobile phone...

I think they're all fantastic but my fave is the last one, the nostalgic type b&w one with concorde at the top.

Regarding any future designs I'd prefer to see more Tornados, maybe some old English...

The Speedbird 3, was there something exclusive or unique about the first bunch of them made and if so what was it? Do you know how many of the first bunch were unique? Was it first 200 and have they...

Is it possible to get an automatic military watch which has the h3 on the hands as well as c3 luminous backing too?

I've been looking at a couple of different sites. I like one or two of the...

I agree with that last part :lol: I would too.

Was just curious about that and the effect on different types of watches esp regarding military watches and whether they were shielded from emp,...

I just wondered what ppl on here think of the Luminox, Uzi and Taser range of watches?

I also just wondered if in general most watches come from Switzerland? Or do you often get watches made in...

I just wondered what type of watch this is:

Is it a zeno? Because I have looked at their catalogue but couldn't see this type listed. I...

Are there any watches that are made in the UK or are most watches made in Switzerland? Are there any British companies making watches that are equivolent to say Omega and Tag Heuer?

Thanks

I’m a newbie on here.

I’ve been reading a couple of posts in the forum and just had one or two general questions to ask.

HEN12Y, reading your post “The General Economy and Watch Prices” I just...
