jackflash Posted January 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2019 A nice 9401 is on it's way to me, luckily with a 90° rehaut Nice! What’s the source? Does it have the correct case back too? You could ask [mention=50989]SSTEEL[/mention] for servicing support, he’s based in Finland I believe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DetektivTudor Posted January 8, 2019 Report Share Posted January 8, 2019 I bought it M2M on RWI. Ssteels reputation is not the best over there, I have Domi around the corner, but he's booked out til the end of days apparently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackflash Posted February 16, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2019 Added an original spec NDC watch strap, as per the MN watches. https://www.silvermans.co.uk/products/marine-nationale-watch-strap?variant=33505519491Another option. Erikas Originals have a derivative design of MN straps too. Slightly misleadingly trademarked as Original MN. https://erikasoriginals.com/mn-straps/original.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DetektivTudor Posted March 24, 2019 Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 I was obviously completely wrong with the rehaut:/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackflash Posted March 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2019 I was obviously completely wrong with the rehaut:/The crystal is distorting the Rehaut. It would be worth changing it. I used a GS PA 462-66 from Ofrei. If you go to post #24 in this thread, there’s a link to a side-by-side comparison of a Clark & CWP T19 crystal too. You’ll see what a difference the crystal can make to the look of the Rehaut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great thread, thanks for the advice I thought about it, but I'm still not sure about keeping it :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
