Hi all, I just ordered a BP DayDate from trustytime after reading for a few days on this forum. Just scratching the surface on learning about this hobby.
Im wondering if anyone can suggests some basic "mods" or fixes they would do to the BP watch.
I've read suggestions on switching bracelets to having a watchmaker tune the movement. Any advice would be appreciated, as well as any suggested repair facility (I'm in SoCal).
Heres the spec of what I've ordered.
