Well it wasn't worth ordering just one!

The SD1976 arrived today. Absolutely superb. I've had Breitlings that don't match up to this fit and finish...

And that LUME!
And yes, that's a lumed seconds hand too.
Amazing quality for a piffle at £140!

I've ordered a 22mm Gekota 3.5mm Milanese with butterfly and bars to go on it.

is that the halios rob? looks nice. getting a nice strap to fit me thats my issue alas
Have you a large wrist then? The bracelets are huge on Steeldives, even with a fairly large wrist I still have to remove loads of links.
It's a homage of the Halios Puck as you rightly pointed out. Bloody lovely.
Yeah that's one I've been following. I've about 10" wrist.Quote:

Mine is 7.75" normally, but it's getting closer to 8" now as I'm using the Cross Trainer very regularly. When I start circuit training too it'll probably go up further.
That's a beaut Roy. A smashing homage of the IWC MkXV.Quote:

Can sometimes get away with 230mm but is very tight. Did a lot of lifting when younger for work.Quote:

That's a nice one too.
Nice, clean. SKX015?Quote:

It does, might take the dremel to thatQuote:

I'd break it doing that [emoji23]
I can break anything these days except my wheetabix.. Damn thing
:lol:
Well playing about inside computers makes me careful. I've removed loads of watch movements before, to clean crystals and dials, and to rectify line up of chapter rings etc, never removed hands before though. Should be fun.
Think I'd live with the misaligned hand, 'You're a better man than I..' etc.Quote:

A watch I've had for years that strap wouldn't come off and didn't fit me. Finally used a razor blade and cut it open.
Looks OK with the zulu
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...28bf35e080.jpg
That’s fancy Grant, like the white one to. Twenty quid special for me today.
https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...28388f5ffd.jpg
set the date etc now and fitted it. quite nice .

edit... this is quite a nice wearing watch with the nato strap. good weight
pagini black sunburst is nice roy.
the white naviforce was off amazon.. think it was £17 on a leather strap. think its better with the zulu personallyQuote:

For 34£ it looks very good. Pity about the name tho. Suppose its maybe a Chinese lorus, or maybe it mean something classy. They are often better sterileQuote:

Back to this, which is maybe my fav.
