Thanks Karl. Thinner is good. Now I've just gone and ordered a new watch. Note to self - I really must start to sell a few.

Looks good Karl. I’ve been considering one of these too.
I had one of the early 2000s re-issue DS3 (LE of 1888 I think) that had a fairly unattractive dial and hands. I had it fitted with a MKll...

It's still the original 2531.80 for me, whether on the Bond bracelet, OEM twin ridge leather, mesh bracelet, nato or whatever.

Agreed. That is actually ridiculous.

That looks great. You have practically got a new Aerospace. Great watches. Enjoy.

Hi Dave, I will check out Wallwork and see what they say. Re. cerakoting, I had looked at Moto City Watch Works (Detroit obviously) for an old, scruffy LeJour but ended up re-casing it into a similar...

Thanks. I'll explore that too.

Thanks Bry. Do you still have any contact details of where you had work done in the past? I've done a bit of research online and, apart from Garrick, the only UK processors I've found specialise in...

That looks really good and is probably something similar to the finish originally on LeJour chronos.

Thanks. I had looked at their website but I think a minimum of £900+20% vat is a bit rich for a Pasadena. It would make no economic sense.

I know that this subject has been aired before but the term DLC or PVD is too short for the search function. Also, there may be something more recent that would be helpful.
I have a couple of...

They may belong to a traffic consultancy firm that are collecting data on traffic movements, parking etc.

Another NO.
If it's really important to you, the dial feet could be removed and either use 'dial dots' or have new feet soldered to suit the ETA 2824 - James Hyman (dreamboat10) is your man. No go...

Very nice watch but, IMO, that bracelet isn't right for it. I think leather will be hard to beat. Try a Hirsch Heavy Calf to avoid the OEM 'tax'.

Or this from Watchgecko for a more aged...

What happens when a student graduates and then emigrates to work outside the UK? Just curious.

My current Aerospace, the 5th I think, was serviced by Breitling just before I bought it, so maybe 2 years ago. Hopefully it won't have any issues for the foreseeable. If it does I'll be trying STS...

And yours (previously mine) is also blue, with the discolouration/paint loss extending onto the chapter ring in a similar manner. Really weird.

@OP. BUK are asking £1145 to carry out all the...

Tissot PRX auto. A tad over budget but maybe you could shop around.

I think the bracelet is often the weak link, pun intended, of these Ali-Express watches. At the moment I’m wearing a Steeldive SKX007 homage on a Hirsch Heavy Calf, Breitling spec, strap plus...

Very nice combination. It’s a strap profile, leather finish and colour that I really like. Do you mind sharing what it is? Thanks.

I’ve had five of the pre-Evo E79362 in all the colour variations, starting with black and now back with black again. In each case I’ve personally renewed the battery at least once and it’s very...

Likewise on arabics - ok for primary school kids but not for adults.

I cannot see it happening but if I ever had to reduce to one watch only it would probably be one of my Moonwatches, likely the one with the (original, black) Snoopy dial. It looks really smart on its...

Probably sorted by now but I know that, at least on Zuludiver straps, the keepers are not solid. They are merely folded with the ends inside the canvas and can easily be pulled out with two fine...

Absolutely this. I haven't needed numbers on a watch since early primary school and that was a long time ago. I generally hate Arabic dials with a vengeance and this particular one is worse than most.
