Managed to find an open ended strap to fit my Longines. Most are too thick at the part which folds around the bar. This is a Condor strap which I had to modify by removing the backing between the...

Although if I was the customer in the first example I’d have been clearer that the issue was with another watch, not the one that you just repaired, if I’m offering a service and expect people to...
I love my Legend Diver and this old one

Did I mention this was away for a few months being serviced - I missed it! I have started wearing it on a perlon quite a lot (Eulit Crystal in grey/brown/black (navy blue on order)). Because the...
Hold on - they refused to test it to 100m because some ethical reason or what?
Thanks folks. I wondered if Japanese culture played a part in things. Thanks for the article, I'll have a look. We have academics who only want to publish, so I can see how something derived from...
I wondered if anyone knows the answer or can give some insights to this question. I am thinking about using it as an example of why patents aren't the be-all and end-all when it comes to...
£50, amazon. Really nice actually.

I nipped into The Watch Lab in York to have mine tested before a holiday. He did it there and then, my watch and my wife’s too, we had a nice chat and he didn’t charge a penny. I forget how much...
I like the look of them. The 16mm lug width appeals to me; I quite like a bigger watch in a small strap. Used to wear my CWC diver on an 18mm. I believe the more expensive version is thicker or...
BB54 for me. Slim, light, adjustable clasp, hides under sleeve, quietly awesome.

My pleasure chaps, Gunter converted a nice vintage chrono of mine from fixed bars to pins and it was a perfect job.
Whereabouts are you? I’ve had this done by MyTime Watches in York; I’ve got another watch which I’ll have converted from fixed bars to drilled lugs and he’s advised me that he’ll be doing some...
Thanks for those I’ll check them out
Just got this back from a full service. Does that count as a new arrival? It was gone three months so it feels like it!!

Hi there
I have a vintage watch with fixed bars which I usually pair with Hirsch Toronto straps (open ended). However because the gap between the strap bar and the case is quite tight, the strap...
Thanks guys, really useful. I have some reading to do.
Thanks guys
Is it just me or do they all seem quite big, given their function?
So it's basically like an Android phone - does that mean if I install the Apple Music app, I can basically leave...
Prompted by the item for sale in SC currently. I'm afraid I'm not in a position to buy at the moment but I am interested in the idea. I use Hi-Res certified headphones (Yamaha LH700A) and listen to...
Got this recently from a member. Really happy with it, super comfortable and more subtle than the 58 I had before.

I got a BB54 from a member here yesterday. For context, my other watches are a vintage Longines 'coin edge' at 35mm, and a Legend Diver at 42mm. I previously had the BB58 but sold it due to it never...
Looking forward to trying one. I’ve had the ND reissue since it came out and I love it. However better lume and the better movement are quite tempting. I find the 42mm a great size and super...
Sounds like it crossed yours!
