  5. Just a thought...I've been checking out eBay for 19mm straps. there's a seller there whose selling straps by a company called Accessories. They have 19mm gator straps (supposedly list price of $300...but you know how that goes) for $50 including shipping. Also some ostrich ones for $25. I ordered one of the ostrich ones just to get a bit of color contrast and see about quality. I'll let you know how it is once I get it if you like.
  6. Jurgenk: I'm assuming that this is the Swiss 2892 version. I have one with a black dial that I got from Josh. The Zigmeister also serviced the movement and lumed the dial and hands. The bracelet on that model were garbage and mine kept losing screws till I just gave up. So, I have mine on a DiModell 19mm black gator strap which is very nice. Good luck with your hunt.
  7. I know the price for the new Natalius with the steel strap...but, could someone PM me with the price that Hont is asking for the blue dial with both leather and steel? Thanks
  8. I don't think you need the conversion kit if you have the rubber strap. The kit contains the 4 plots (the little metal things-2 per side) the case screws and the long screw and cap the connect the strap to the plots. You should have these already. You'll just have to unscrew the long screw that connects the band to the plots on each side and remove the rubber strap. Of course you'll need to see if the deployant fits. Otherwise you'll need a buckle. Hope this is clear
  9. Hi,

    I saw you have a breitling superocean heritage chrono on mesh. I have a 6.5 wrist which is a bit smaller than yours. Do you have the strap setted to the absolute minimum for your 6.75 wrist, or there is still some possibility to shorten it? Do you have the breitling clasp on or the default one for the mesh strap (I hear the breitling one is a bit bigger)?

    Thanks,

  10. I got mine from http://www.suppaparts.com/. It doesn't have the Breitling clasp, but if you have one handy it can be adapted. If you don't really care that much about the clasp, then this one is good out of the box. It has good adjustment for size. I have about a 6.75 wrist and it fits well.
  11. This is a repeat of another post I made, but the 24mm suppaparts mesh fits the SOH....and has a nice feel to it. http://www.suppaparts.com/
  12. As an FYI...I bought one of the 24mm suppaparts mesh straps that people are buying for their Ploprops and fitted it to my SOH....perfect fit. I do have an extra clasp, so I'm gonna see how hard a project that is. But for $50 it's really nice and fits my 6.75" wrists!
  13. Snowball: the MBW/MBK ROO comes with seconds @ 9. I have one and sent it to The Zigmeister who threw in a Swiss 7750 with seconds still at 9. Cost was not too bad (I have around $700 total in it). The good news is that the MBW has the slow beat asian 7750 in it which has hands that are interchangeable with the Swiss version. As Delta mentioned what you want is possible, but expensive and you have to wonder whether or not it's worth it. It isn't to me. How many people really know seconds @ 12 from seconds at 9? BTW, with the MBW, the dail is correct...the 12 subdial is laid out like a seconds dial, etc.
