Tutima Watches: Richness in the German Horological Tradition
Here at worn&wound, we feel the German brand Tutima doesn't always get the attention it deserves, especially since it was one of the pioneers in chronograph technology 75 years ago.

Is there any source for aftermarket 502T endlinks?
I've been looking 502T endlinks to use with a D series (no holes) 16710 GMT. Found some on Ebay, but $705 for just endlinks without a bracelet is more than I am willing to pay.Are there any aftermarket sources for 502T-equivalent endlinks?
