    Yeah I keep trying straps on my sky fall as well and it looks good but not as good as the bracelet.

    Thanks Everyone! The wife surprised me with a watch roll and a horween strap - it has taken 10 years, but I think she finally "gets" me :thumbsup:

    10 years is not even "vintage" so it's not a bad timeline.

    24 of April will be 10 years for is as well. I want a watch, she wants a ring.... So predictable.

    Sweet!

    If you don't like it, don't tell yourself or your feelings will be hurt. It's the thought that counts. [emoji512]

    My WWW Dirty Dozen collection increased by one today. A shot in the dark really as I have no details on the movement other than it is running.
    Dial looks well preserved for a 70yo, hands looks correct and the fixed lug bars are still there. Crown does not look right, but then again I know where to source the correct ones. It will be interesting to see the important rest of it also.

    If someone is wondering: Sellers picture for sure! I have adjusted it a bit as the original posted ones was really poor.

    Still a few to go.... :cool:

    I have a feeling it will clean up nicely as long as the movement is good. Got it at a good price, so if a service is all it takes, it will not break the bank.:whistling:

    A new beater for when I'm diving to incredible depths in the kitchen sink, working in the garage or doing other man stuff.

    No shit! Yet another candidate for "Understatement of the Year" 2015. Nice to have a $10K budget per week!

    This came in the mail today. Have been looking around for one for quite a while.

    I like the bracelet a lot, very comfortable. The problem is that my wrists are too think and the bracelet tapers. So when the bracelet it tight enough, I can't close the clasp. Same story on my Seamaster 176.007. So I either have to remove a link the non-replaceable way, switch to a strap or a mesh.
