Thoughts on this Hublot instead of an AP?
An AP is simply a little bit too expensive for me right now.To top that, I love even more than the AP how this shares a similar (slightly different and nicer look IMO), much lighter, and a leather strap which I ideally prefer.I'm really keen on buying this, however just sort of held back by the hate on Hublot.I don't believe Hublot is a fashion brand like some claim. It definitely is a high end brand, but just not one that has been around for too long.Thoughts?
AP ROO Rubberclad SS Black
Firstly, thank you to all who suggested, approved and set-up this AP sub-forum - great to have it here on TRF.As I have noted with several other members' posts, I too, am becoming increasingly interested in AP.The model that has captured my attention is the ROO Rubberclad Stainless Steel - black face - white (possibly silver?) sub-dials. I have yet to see the watch in person but it looks stunning from images. My only potential concern is that I am not sure about the rubber strap and feel if I could, might try and fit a black leather hornback with contrasting white stitching (sort of match the aesthetics of the dial). Herein lies my concern - being that this model has a rubber bezel might it not 'mesh' with a leather strap - the two different materials maybe not combining well together? I would be interested to hear if anybody has done this or if infact the general concensus is 'no, probably would not look/feel good - please all comments are welcome.I have looked and at circa $20-25
Vintage Seamaster 30 on 1168 bracelet
I've been searching for a nice bracelet for my SM30 for a while now. finally, I found an 1168 with 605 end links. A very uncommon bracelet. Of course when I got it, it was one link too small. Damn. Luckily Ofrei had a spare and it arrived today. Fits perfectly. The he bracelet has a little stretch and there is some wear near the end links but I don't want that NOS look. A 50 year old watch should be on a bracelet of a similar vintage.
anybody swapped hour/minute hands on Seamaster 300m co-axial?
For all the Omega owners who tinker/customize their Seamasters.... has anyone swapped the hands on the mid-size Seamaster (36.25mm) with the arrow hands from a Planet Ocean? I got a nice offer for a Seamaster 2222.80 recently, but the hour/minute hands just don't do it for me, but the arrow hands wouldn't look out of place on such a watch... any thoughts on this?
Got the Sub-C! Interesting bracelet & clasp adjustment
Hey folks,I have a separate thread about my new Sub-C that just landed today. I am pretty stoked about it in genereal.One thing I had not anticipated is how long it is taking me to get the bracelet links and glide lock clasp set up perfectly. I have a forum friend with basically the same size wrist (we owned the same watch with no adjustment needed) and he told me his Sub-C was set up with 4 links on the 6:00 side and 5 links on the 12:00 side. So this is what I did and it was not quite right. So then I went to 3.5 on the 6:00 side. Still not right. Down to 3 on the 6:00 side. Much better and allowed the clasp to center with some room to wiggle on either side of the adjustment area.After wearing it like this for a few hours, it was too short on the 6:00 side, so I took one link from the other side and swapped it over, for an even 4 links on each side. This seems to be the perfect setup for my wrist. I can get a more comfortable fit on this bracelet than previous Rolex bracelet
