View attachment 69599 View attachment 69600 finally found a strap i like!!!
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XT8YBHL
this material is great, i also swapped out the clasp with a brushed titanium finish one.
the kevlar one i ordered from singapore was junk.
It's the best!! Still holding strong, no fraying or cracks. It's the only strap i will use.How are you finding that strap after a few months @panda? I've been looking for a canvas strap for a while, still haven't found a good one though (some were just bad quality, others started fraying at the holes after a while)
I have the same one. No jewels tho. Same bark bracelet. I have to google how to set the time day date every time i use it I forget.
Something different:

This is my everyday Seiko 007 mod. Done by Yobokies about ten years ago.
Rolliworks will restore bracelet for $300. They are doing mine right now.Here is my usual watch. It’s crazy old now. I bet it’s 25 years old. Minty fresh from the Rolex Swiss tune-up. I got fleeced. The tuned cost almost as much as the watch did back in the day. They wanted to put a new bracelet on, but I stopped them. I’ll do it if it breaks. I don’t think I like the new Tudor watch offerings.

I feel Omega has gone pretty much the same - tried to get my 1960s seamaster checked and tuned up but they were going to send it off to Switzerland to assess + do all the changes they wanted as either an "all or nothing" type situation.
Daily driver : Casio G Shock -> Big easily read screen for easy heat rate/ resp rate taking + timer helps to keep an eye on jobs I need to go back to (would recommend for anyone that needs something waterproof/washable)
Weekends: 1960s Omega seamaster -> small and subtle enough that only very few people notice but still damn beautiful
was never a fan of G shocks, until I bought one to time my cold showers (don’t ask lol). I gotta admit they are great for all things outdoor, work etc. and if they break they don’t break the bank...
Vintage Omega watches are best repaired/ cleaned by independents. Omega Factory will ruin a vintage watch by replacing any parts they feel are not up to snuff. (say goodbye to any tritium lume that is remotely cracked, etc.)I feel Omega has gone pretty much the same - tried to get my 1960s seamaster checked and tuned up but they were going to send it off to Switzerland to assess + do all the changes they wanted as either an "all or nothing" type situation.
