It's 36mm and came with a strap as well as the bracelet, the reasoning being that I put the strap on so I can share it with my missus.
I ordered some horotec springbar tweezers as the springbar is quite small and not the best to get at.
First attempt at removing the springbar one tweezer arm broke 😡

·I picked up two for ten bucks. My wife really likes old white dialed Timex. This one works well.
The second one reminded me a bit of that Rolex that went way deep in the early 60s with that bubbly glass. This one looks like a marble on your wrist. Stainless steel case. Will see if a battery brings it back to life tomorrow.

And here is a photo of that Rolex.

··So on and so on and scoobie doobie dooFor a person who says she doesn't care about watches she's doing pretty well. 😁
She wears her piepan the most (actually calls it her piepan), then the Centenaire.. hasn't worn the Hamilton 18k T-101 much. One of the empty places is for the Gallet, if it ever comes back from the watchmaker.

My wife's latest, a la grande classique next to a cocktail stick for comparison of its thickness.

·She used this Casio for many years, then the strap broke and we put it on a Citizen canvas strap.
Then the watch stopped working, even with a new battery.
Then she took my Citizen BM8180-03E
Then I gave her this Lorus Sports.
The newest one is a Seiko bellmatic witch is in for a service now.

·I realize I mixed up two of my wife's Dubey watches. She has one automatic (ETA movement) and one manual wind (hand engraved AS 1727).
I guess they used to be really expensive. The cases, dials and hands are really nice.
I bought all of them pre-owned, all from sellers on Yahoo auctions Japan or Rakuten.
The manual wind was around 350 euro. The automatic around 500 euro. The cushion case men's watch was around 700 euro.
I services all 3 watches. One of the nice things is that Dubey & Schaldenbrand will still sell parts directly, if they have stock.
I remember when I first got into watches in the late 90s, Dubey was a reasonably popular brand with its own following. After the company changed hands, it seems they have gone in the wrong direction...
Sorry, it's late and the lighting for these pictures is not very good.

Those are nice watches. I hope they are mega expensive. Otherwise I’ll be tempted to get one…
