    band size

    you sound like you are in the same boat as me. Thanks for the link!!! It is funny on metal bracelet types I usually do not have many issues but leather straps......

    band size

    any chance you could give me a name or to as a starting point?
  3. this might sound like a dumb question, but here goes anyway. when I have a normal standard size watch band, I am typically on either the last hole or the next to the last hole. If I go with the xl length bands then I find that the long end is too long. Is there any dealer that sells a version where the short side (the clasp side) that is longer and the other side is normal length? If I did that then the clasp would end up in the middle of my wrist instead of way off to the side which seems odd, not to mention when the clasp is off to the side the band does not sit correctly on the underside of my wrist. If I get the full xl bands then I have all that extra strap that I hate....
  4. This automatic Seiko is replaceing a quartz Bulova that is almost identical!!! And yes I know the date is off, I got it last night and was too tired to fuss with it!!!
  5. Josh solved it all for me, he actually gave me a call, which I think was above and beyond. Apparently my email provider has been refusing emails from him, so we are using another email and all is good!!! Thanks Josh!!
  6. Hi, I have placed 3 orders with perfect clones and I have some questions. The first order seemed great, I requested to pay with paypal and the request for payment was sent within minutes and latter that day they even sent a tracking number. About 4 days latter I got QC pictures, and the next day a different tracking number. Thus far I have not been able to track either number, so I e-mailed them and have not received an answer. Either way, I ordered another watch and a band two days ago, and this time asked to pay with AMEX, but there was no place to input the amex numbers, so I figured that I would receive a request, which still has not come. Am I missing something? I have e-mailed back 3 times now over the past two days on both issues and nothing. Is this normal? Should I just ask to cancel the watch and band order and reorder from somewhere else as I really do want to get the watch here sooner rather than latter.
  7. I have a guy who mainly works on old vintage watches only, he has been very helpful with the couple of old omega seamasters I have bought. If you want I will get you his website or phone number, you could send it to him and see if it is worth restoring
  8. Okay, got a minute here, so here are two shots of the watch!!!
  9. Well, I guess I am lucky, my Bretling arrived from perfectwatches today, and honestly it looks great, I will post a picture in tomorrows watchology. Honestly I bought two other watches from out TD the next day, and neither of those have even shipped yet. I plan on swapping the bracelet for a leather one to save some weight but honestly the whole thing is beautiful. I am sure there are many flaws that you all will spot, but to my eyes it is great!! Will I buy from them again, probably not as I will head the advice of the majority here, but that bieng said they did do a great job, fast, gave me what they promised and no hassle.
  10. and yes I did read edge's guide but the pictures are gone.......
  11. I have never done this so a little help, I have a rollie sub that I want to remove the stem and bezel, and remove the movement so I can possibly replace the dial.
  12. Ok, where is a good spot to start learning about mods, and what would you suggest for a first mod. I think I will pull the trigger on the cola as the price is good, and wort case I keep it as it is, best cast I learn something!!
  13. if I picked up one of these cola watches at a good price, how difficult is it to swap the face out for a normal black one?
  14. Is the noob $100 better than the H factory? What type of differences are there considering the movements are the same. Sorry, just wanting to make a good decision. Can both be upgraded?
  15. My new to me Rolex, and even though it is quartz my ecodrive that I setup for sailing!! Sorry for the iphone pictures
  16. my biggest issue right now is that my 20 slot box is basically full........does that mean something?
  17. are the seiko automatic movements okay? since joining this site I have ordered a couple to replace a few of my other quartz watches, and I have probably ordered a couple too many reps to start but it is fun soo far.....
  18. thank you, I love that handmade strap!!! And the price is not bad at all!!!
  19. what is the leather band and where did you get it?
  20. I am considering buying this and I want to make sure it is real, looks like it to me.
  21. this is a picture of my Bulova with sweeping second hand, sorry the photo sucks but its my iphone and it is dark
  22. as I said, after the first watch was not available I did inquire about the seamaster and was told it was available, and all I needed to do was pay the difference, which I did as soon as I got the e-mail and then e-mailed them back and was told it was all peachy until today, 24 hours latter was when I was again informed that my new selection was a goner also.
