Mine from new over fifty years ago now and still my favourite watch.
Happy Tuesday!



I’ll never be able to say something like this, much respect for it.

I bet ! I would be happy w/ just 1. My grail is your newly arrived grail.
It really is the perfect proportions. Of course, I'm largely biased. 😁

Very nice, I’m trying to find a bracelet for mine, could I ask which one you have fitted and if there are any problems with it?

Is the 1171/633. No problems with it and I love the vintage style comfort, only slight issue is it does mark up the back of the lugs. Doesn't bother me personally .

Thanks very much for the information, unfortunately I have that exact bracelet in my spares and neither I or my jeweller could fit it to the ST. Thanks anyway.

Was on Mt. Bierstadt today hanging out with the pooch. Had to wear the utility.
Love to see other Colorado members! One of my favorite 14'ers. Haven't been up there yet this year. Cheers!

That's surprising. The end links are a bit tight from the pack. Try using a fine narrow file and gently filing the straight edges bit by fit and in between doing so offering them between the lugs on their own until they fit in comfortably. A little patience and you can't really go wrong, once they fit well(don't mix them up as the upper and lower gaps can be a tiny bit different that is better to keep them to the 12 and 6 they were filed to fit) attach the bracelet. Oh and use some 1.8mm spring bars rather than the supplied, I actually use 19mm bars for the bracelet for ease of fitting and is plenty secure with the bracelet IMO.

I'm wearing my new (to me) Planet Ocean 600M that I traded for with @knappo1307 - who is great, would trade/buy from him again in a second - when I have replenished funds. 😀
