How did you work out which one would work?
What "little modification" was required?
I have a 114270 and would also like to try a rubber strap. Mind I've not taken the bracelet off yet I like it...
IAM did me well and you get cheep insurance (car and house) so you'll get your money back on it too.
Even better when work pay ;)
I can't remember how to do pics on here, but achieved a personal Grail at the weekend.
I traded my '69 oyster date for a newer '10 explorer (still 36mm).
I know the steel isn't quite as nice, but...
Good choice.
The Philips screwdriver is probably more use than a cork screw at his age.
And the saw, I had forgotten how good they are...
SAK all the way.
Classic - small and the most carried (& therefore used knife) - I have 4!
My first SAK - butter knife shape but damn sharp blade, you can even get a saw.
Alox Cadet - like above...
Brilliant stuff.
I'm away on Wednesday, so no spoilers ;)
Mine is the best Pepsi. I don't need another ;)
Buy one, wear it. Don't over think it...
Yes. I haven't used my laptop since I bought my iPad.
I did IAMs and it's great. I knew I chap who had done IAMs and RSPOA for bike and car. He thought RSPOA was best, but that either is better than nine.
IAMs has halved my insurance (through surety,...
'Wrist' watch?
Love the face colour, I have a'69 oyster date and that is a similar shade.
I think it is a casual look with the leather strap, but it's brown leather so it is casual. A sharper black strap for...
In what way will it be tricky? Use the dial to show a bit more blade and off with the beard...

It's the only one I need.
You know along with the others I have.
But for know it's the only one really really need...
I do like the simplicity of a rubber strap. I bought a cheapo for my Vostok, but having skinny wrists I struggle to cope with the spare strap and cuffs.
I guess it's time to start saving for a Sub...
Oh god no! Those things are like crack. Please stop telling me I can get them in the UK...
I have friends and relatives who live abroad, so it depends who I am planning to call. Or I set it to Zulu.
Generally I have the watch itself set to GMT/BST, to minimise the faff of changing and the...
Surely monogamy is just for relationships...
Ah bugger he is 23, I was going to suggest one of those really cool rolex's with Micky Mouse on. That would be a classy first watch and something super ironic in later life.
Reading the posts above,...
This thread is not helping. I found myself on Watchfinder yesterday justifying a summer of frugality. I didn't do it, but came so close...
Current faves are my vintage Slim or Progress. I tend to stick with Gillette greens for blades. Slants we great fun and very efficient, I seem to fall in and out of favour with mine.
If you want an...
I sported a beard a few years back. I had a moustache comb and would trim the bottom of the 'tash to avoid collecting snacks.
But since then I have discovered the joy of straight razors. If it's...
He got a lot of air time on 6 music today. Made me realise how much his stuff was used on adverts and TV. But what a fine legacy to leave behind :)
I tend to wear my GMT everywhere. Waterproof and covers the time zone issues with ease.
I bought a cheep digital to take to a South Africa but hated it. I think my Vostok will cover the inexpensive...
