Habring2 Doppel 2.0 Watch
I don't know why it took me until now to cover Habring2 here on aBlogtoReadwatches-dealer. You've heard about German watch makers, but what about Austrian ones? Well now you have. These guys are pretty cool - and certainly unique. Imagine if Sinn and Tutima had a cousin across the border. Similar but different, that German speaking cousin regularly wore bowties. That would be?Habring2. I mean all is good except for the little mathematical "squared number 2" numeral next to the name. I get that it is a team of Maria Kristina Habring and Richard Habring - but did they need to choose a character that requires like 10 minutes to figure out how to enter into a text document?If Habring2 was a mathematical equation I think the result would be Germanic mechanical sentiments times nouveau design classicism equals whatever you see here.

Help with installing a 97200 bracelet on an Explorerll
I purchased a Rolex 97200 bracelet ( from a SubC) after researching as to whether it would fit on my Explorer ll 16570 all the research indicated that it would fit fine. I had to buy a 1.6mm screwdriver to size the bracelet and already have a Bergeon spring bar tool. After several extremely frustrating evenings I have had to give up and conclude that the two are not compatible. The main issue is that even without trying to place the spring bar the bracelet barely fits the available gap and needs quite a bit of force just to place it into position. Am I missing something here? Any ideas?Thanks David

Anyone have a Sky-Dweller on a Jubilee?
In another thread this thought just popped into my head while answering a Datejust question. While I usually prefer Oyster, on the Datejust the Jubilee just looks right. Got me thinking what it would look like on a Sky-Dweller. I assume since the Sky-Dweller is larger than the Datejust, this probably isn't possible, but figured might as well ask.
