Howdy Crunchers - Always trying to improve!

Hey All,

I've been collecting watches for far too long! I think I need some time with a doctor! Anyway I joined as I'm always trying to do small off the shelf "Mods" in the pursuit of perfection and can never really find stuff online and from the forums, so hopefully my posts might help other crunchers and the wider community. I've also found posts on here pretty useful so it's only right I add my 2pence worth. I'm from SE England and South London specifically.

Hey LegacyHann,

Thanks for the welcome 🙏

It was good - Good on TV 😀

I didn't go into Central to view it but the celebrations were held nationwide with street parties. A BBQ and family round washed down with some beers, so all good can't complain. A Bank Holiday today so watch strap hunting and took the little one to the park so more scuffs to add to the BB Pro 👌 How's it hanging in Singapore? Was it a holiday today?

Hey Ichibunz,

Thanks for the welcome 🙏

Lol I had one of the high irritating issues with my GS - The oem bracelet whilst ok was either too loose or too tight - Like a really arghhh moment! Loved the dial, finishing etc and the 44gs wow that's a design but the fit!!! Tried a leather - Non GS admittedly and the same thing too lose or too tight. It sat around hardly worn for a year and I got it for a good price so wasn't in a rush to sell. Thought about selling it and searched all corners of the net. Low and behold Strapcode have a couple of options for the 44gs. A Hex, an Astroid and the jubilee. Finding a picture of a 44gs on the jubilee was difficult only a video of a seller in Thailand. Took the plunge and went for a better clasp - Clasp isn't brilliant (bulky) but the Jubilee is spot on! Amazing comfort and fits perfectly. I also quite like the look of it - I think it works well, what do you think? I'll highly recommend it 👌

Glad to help!

I have a video of it on my YouTube, if you want to see more of it. Find me on there and it's on my BB54 dial video. You can see some outside footage and see what it looks like naturally👍
