jchurch Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 No the post man just takes it and leaves you an empty box LOL you will probably have a nice box waiting on your door step when you get home. You could check the status before you leave work and it will have a note saying what happened with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThinkBachs Posted March 6, 2010 Report Share Posted March 6, 2010 k guys i have it on my wrist finally, a) one of the sides of the bracelet seems like it needs wd40, wth is this? I can't figure out how to work this stop watch, any pointers guys? and c) is the clasp supposed to be crooked? All of the links are supposed to be straight across, don't tell us you got one of those with the angled links! J/K Post some pics so we can tell you for sure about the clasp. As far as the stiffness of the links, many watch bands need some lubrication. There's some good posts on the best way to do this, I can't think of them right off hand. It's better to have a band that has tight tolerances than to have something that comes in loose... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxman Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 That Is a very nice breitling you have there. It looks to be alright except for the fold over clasp catching the edge of the bracelet when being closed. I have a Motors T that happens to be the same way,same bracelet. It leaves those little scuff marks that annoy the hell out of me. I use a cape cod cloth to lighten up the scratches. I purchased a croc strap that I use most of the time. These watches look killer fantastic on leather straps, were made for them me thinks The Breitling clasps have that slant to them,It's normal. Thanks for sharing, enjoy your new watch.

maxman Posted March 10, 2010 Report Share Posted March 10, 2010 haha thank you max! yeah every little spec of dirt on the clasp ect bothers me, i need to figure a good way of cleaning this puppy There are a lot of very good threads around here about taking care of your watch. Just remember not to use anything to strong. Mild soap and water Is good for basic cleaning. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
