Watch looks great, and it looks better with this dial than with replacement! Enjoy the watch!

Hey@all, one more question... i recognised that after a few hours, the red hand wich counts the Minutes is a bit moving forward by it self.

My question is: is this normal and would you leave it like this or send it again to England?

If the chronograph is not running, then no it should not be moving, so needs to go back to be fixed.

BTW for the issue of the end link, the stainless steel version is discontinued, but if you can get ahold of the gold plated one you could remove the plating - part number is 026LX653.

Cheers, Al

Hey@all, there are end links 618 and 625 at ebay available. Do you might know wich one would better match for the 1170 barcelet and my seamaster 176.007?

Thanks for helping.

I believe neither will work. 618 are for a Memomatic, and 625 for a Chronostop I think. I've seen pictures of people using 604, which technically fit but aren't high enough:



If I were you, I'd keep the straight ends (or a leather strap, as you suggested) until I found a 653. It can look quite nice on leather:

Hey Dialstatic, thanks for your answer. I thought they could match but I would not like it if they are not high enough and look like in your picture.

The leather strap looks nice. Thanks for showing me.
