Calling @DLT222...

Sorry Darren, do you have an eta on re-stock of Forstner straight and the new horned bands for us mere mortals on this side of the pond?

 

Wow, I already received a shipping notice! That is super service!

 

Do ends scratch the case? All the pics make it look like there is no/minimal clearance.

Those with the horned ends, how do they stay flush? Will they scratch the lugs?

 

How do the horned ends follow the curve of the speedmaster case? Photos on forstner site show not a great fit, may just be the angle of photo

 

Can anyone offer their opinion on straight vs horned ends? Or original vs regular length?

 

Just placed my order for a regular fit horned set

Was hopeful for another introductory price break, but I guess $125 is still $400 less than the JB. I loved the original, but I’m excited for a no-gap fit!

@Cenzo buy the regular fit horned unless you’ve got astronaut-suit-sized wrists. Horned lugs all the way.

 

Got my straight end last week, loved it; just ordered the horned. I see this swapping through various watches with some regularity.

 

Yeah, I tried mine on about 1/2 dozen watches, the Speedy was actually my least favorite combo. Will be curious about how the horn lug looks on watches other then the Speedmaster

 

Doup’ing my WRUW post here for obvious reasons - forgive the redundancy:

My Tudor Chrono Heritage hasn’t been getting any wrist time, as I haven’t been feeling either the factory bracelet (just too much SS, and also doesn’t fit the ‘heritage’ vibe well) or the blue & orange faux nato strap (a little “on the nose,” color-wise).

But this new Forstner has breathed a bit of life into it.

 

Fitted mine to my Tudor Sub

 

Excited the horned lug end version is finally available. I've been waiting months for it, so went ahead and ordered.

 

Horned in ordered at 10:50PM Fri night, shipped notice at 5:50AM Sat morning

on the grind!

 

My order was delivered this morning. Ordered on Friday and delivered late Monday morning is pretty good!

 

LOOKS FUCKING GREAT MAN!!

 

Pictures? Only takes a moment to put these on...
I am curious to see the difference on a “real” watch, not the pictures on the site. I have the straight and have not ordered the horned yet.

 

Just got it.



Pictures on speedy coming soon.

 

Crap- now I’m gonna have to get one of those too.

 

Still at work in the shipping bag. Had to pick my son up from school today and watch him for the afternoon. When I got the first Forstners a few months back he was all over them when I brought them home. He tore one of the boxes within the first few seconds I figured best to leave these at the office for a day.
