  1. Happy Birthday Thetoad!

  2. That Dakar watch was very unique for in the oversized ,but nice watch case it came in actually came with something usable,like the tools necessary for replacing the band.The Dakar came with an additional strap. I pestered World Of Watches endlessly about getting that tool kit.As I mentioned I'm not even sure a standard sized Torx wrench would even fit since they wanted to steer you into their authorized dealership to hose you down again,problem is that don't exist anymore. Great photo ,,,,,again,,,thanks all...
  3. Well,this is my first attempt at this. The topic is quite true.I am the owner of a watch made by a very upscale,inventive and at one time a profitable watch company.Unfortunately,it exists,,,,not. As standard operating procedure this company wanted you to go to their Authorized Dealers for repairs,and possible replacement parts.This problem is compounded by the fact very unusual tools are required just to replace a strap. The company,Wyler....the watch an El Camino.. Who out there has a possible solution for me,since no A.D's exist.I desperately want to replace the strap,but no jeweler,or watchmaker for that matter will touch it. In its prime,they made some extraordinary pieces,especially their tourbillions.They were overpriced and they simply believed......."If you build it,,,,,they will buy it".what a shame
