Mike on a bike Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 Your welcome, where did you score the dial? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightwatch Posted March 1, 2014 Report Share Posted March 1, 2014 Dagaz had no dials in stock and picked up all pieces from Yobokies http://forums.watchuseek.com/f30/fs-custom-fff-modding-parts-new-lumed-glass-bezel-inserts-available-784063.html, think he still has the silver ones. The watch simply looks great in person:) was well worth the while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chad Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 As you can see from the original post and a few i have seen around here in NYC in the wild, they do not sit on the wrist all that well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TVG Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Now on Brady sailcloth Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk I'm rather impressed. I personally like it more on the sailcloth. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtbkr65 Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Kyranmcc, I like the bracelet but it's nothing special, my intention was to put it on the sailcloth from the beginning. It will be the closest I get to the genuine fifty fathoms! Lol Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fraggle42 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Now on Brady sailcloth Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk No lume on bezel? That is a big letdown and has knocked my purchase of one of these on the head Anyone know if you can lume the bezel insert? I know the lume isn't anything to write home about so would probably get it all superglued anyway. Grr, bleedin autocorrect. Superlumed!

mtbkr65 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Fraggle42, mine for some reason doesn't glow as it should and yes you can have it relumed, best to have it applied to the bottom of the bezel insert Sent from my SCH-I605 using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike on a bike Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 Oh great 23 an off size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraggle42 Posted March 5, 2014 Report Share Posted March 5, 2014 24mm + razor blade = 23mm ends Easy peasy, and your finger tips may survive as well if you're careful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fraggle42 Posted March 6, 2014 Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 Im not a fan of shaving straps... An electric razor man eh? Given the choice of a shaved strap or no strap, I'll take a shaved strap. Shaving 0.5mm of either side is only visible if you look closely if done properly and finished off, done it with a little 22m strap in 21mm case lugs.
