·A question for the minster chrono inlay people. Does your insert sit perfectly or is there gaps in between the inlay and box? I fixed mine like this.
With mine there's a little bit of wiggle room, but still a good fit. I also want to be able to take the tray out for the safety deposit box.
How did you fill the gaps?

Love the fact you have retained a cover and the paperweight, bravo!

·Final version. A version with less gaps and also functional in terms of removing the insert.

·The interior I did myself yes. The insert I bought.
I like the insert from MisterChrono but 300 euros is way too much for just an insert. Yours is from MisterChrono?

·It is alot of money yes but in my opinion worth it. I like to have a speedmaster watch box.
Thanks. Wrote MisterChrono and they quoted 390 euros, no way am paying that much for just an insert

·Have someone converted the “small” Speedmaster 3861 box into a strap box? Recently sold my Speedmaster Legendary Moonwatch “big box”, which first converted to a watch box and later into an accessories box, as was too big to be practical on my safe / vault at 12 1/2 inches wide x 8 3/4 inches long x 4 2/5 inches outside dimension:
Am now considering converting a spare “small” Speedmaster 3861 box into a strap box, which would have about 7 1/2 inches wide x 5 1/2 inches length x 2 inches size on its bottom side (as shown below), enough to substitute several Omega red service cases which currently use to store my bands and bracelets

··Happily spending my daughter’s inheritanceDo you have a URL to the misterchrono insert? I can't seem to find it...
It wasn't (isn't) listed on their website. Email them directly and let them know what you want. They got back to me pretty quickly.
