Serafino Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 Back in 2012, woof* mentioning picking up an unusual dimpled-rivet expanding cartel-ish 7206 bracelet accidentally from the clone Josh site a year before (so 2011?). Has anyone found a source for these? I have an itch for an expanding rivet. He's not receiving PMs at the moment or I'd ask him. Thanks for any leads!

jigelow Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 Sounds awesome, but I've never seen them. 2012 is right about when I started getting in to things, so maybe they were more prevalent back then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alligoat Posted March 22, 2017 Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 I believe the expanding 6636 rivet that I have came on my 6542 that came from Puretime- but as has been mentioned, that was 5 years or so ago! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serafino Posted March 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 Hey Alli! Searching around to find out more about these I ran into someone complaining that he'd ordered one in 2012 but already they were out. You like wearing yours? Sick of the hairs catching? I know someone who's in the market... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
panerai153 Posted March 25, 2017 Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 May have one. I bought a puretime 6542 several years ago. Let me look tomorrow. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jigelow Posted March 25, 2017 Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 Nice. Now we just have to find a second one for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serafino Posted March 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2017 I'm very curious to see it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Serafino Posted April 1, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2017 I've seen a picture of one of these with a very strangely shifted side plate on one of the links. One of the things I'd like to know is how strong the springs are--do they support the weight of a GMT-style watch okay or do they tend to sag? I checked in with a few places including PT and no leads. Thanks again for any feedback! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
