Got my Seiko SKX007K2 yesterday!

JBT Where did you get your nato?

Dope watch but go get yourself the wjean super oyster II bracelet. Stock jubilee is crap.

Good looks.

I just copped a zulu strap but I am having a hard time trying to find a youtube video or instructions on how to remove my strap. Does anyone know of a forum/blog to help with removing seiko skx007 bracelets?

Ight so I'm looking for recommendations on a nice, simple, 42mm gold watch. I'm young and on a budget of about $300. Anything comes to mind?

Still wondering. I wish I could search this thread for 'gold watch' but shitty forum is shitty

Phoenix nato straps and the 2 on the right are from Maratac. Phoenix straps are made in the UK and are the genuine military issued straps for the british army. Maratacs are the best quality but i dont like the sheen on their straps.

Phoenix straps - http://www.corvuswatch.com/index.asp?page=british_and_italian
maratac - http://www.broadarrow.net/maratac.htm

i also have straps from http://www.gnomonwatches.com/Product-view.asp?id=20 softer nylon, holes tend to stretch a little bit but the colors are nice. great selection of straps but shipping to US takes FOREVER.

nope no battery. it uses a power reserve that's charged just by wearing the watch. usually about a 24 hr reserve, so if you take it off and put it down for longer than that it'll stop. they don't run very accurate either -/+ ~10 seconds every day.

i personally had like 3 automatic watches, but ended up selling them all this past year. just wasn't my thing.

First time I've heard someone say "autos" are not their thing. Auto is a must for me, or a hand-wind movement like a swiss Unitas.

I love Bluelans slogan "We make things better" hahaha. We know everything is poorly made Chinese junk. I don't think HB should be a market you should aim to attract, because it won't happen. The women's purse thread from Bluelans is worse, because 99.9% of HB members are male.
