Loved the “Bites” as always❤
Thank you so much for including my post. I truly am grateful for the opportunity of appearing on the big post’s highlights of this week ;)
Keep the great work and thank you again!
Well thanks for the advice!
But I was a bit confused on how to remove them… is there any particular technique?
And by the way thank you for the list of strap brands!
I won’t buy another one in the near future but I am definitely going to check them out once I feel the need to, including your nephews brand ;)
Well I don’t own the 39mm one as well but I have the 42mm GMT!
As far as scratches go I didn’t have any problems with them (except from the ones I made when trying to put a strap on… first time and I don’t really mind those because they give the watch some personality … pics below 🙂 )
Anyway the watch is incredible but I would just remind you that Seiko has some QC problems (mine was a misaligned bezel that nowadays doesn’t bother me so much and some really small particles in the dial… most likely no one will notice it but I love looking at every single millimeter of my watch… 🙂 )
So I would recommend you to make sure that when you buy the watch everything is in place and take your time to make sure everything is alright and according to your own taste
I hope this comment wasn’t too late but hopefully it will still be helpful
That is an incredible collection!
Can you tell me where you bought them and, based on your experience , what is the average lifespan of the leather straps?
Mine is Horween Dublin and also hand made.
Thanks for the comment ;))
Yeah I already knew about the old pantograph and it’s so cool that the engraving is actually “hand made” (they use this machine but it needs to be controlled by someone).
But the second part about being able to choose the dial material and actually giving the customer the possibility to customize such a specific part of the watch is incredible… and with a material like stone… incredible!
I will for sure send them an email… despite the fact that I don’t intend to buy the watch right now I still want to see their catalog and be aware of the possibilities for the future!
Again thank you so much for the comment and I will make sure to visit them once l, in the future, buy a watch from them :)
It never occurred to me that the iPhone time could be wrong! I believed it was always synced to the atomic time since my Wi-Fi is always turned on.
But nevertheless an Omega with +0.3 seconds per day? That is impressive! I thought in average mechanical watches tend to lose up to +2 seconds per day so losing only +0.3, the watch is a mechanical beast ah ah
Anyway thank you for the comment I really appreciate it :)
Cheers
My strap is from Straptelier… I made sure to buy a good quality one so that it can last longer and feel/look better than a cheaper one!
As I said in the post I prefer buying something more expensive but better rather than something cheaper that won’t last as long or be as high quality!
To be honest I totally agree with you… vintage cameras and sound systems are just 💯! When I go to my grand parents house I love putting a disc from Pink Floyd playing in their Vinyl 👀
These are some photos of the strap
