If the dial is for the SNZH FFF mod, the 3 o'clock dial will fit straightaway without any additional work. If you have gotten the 4 o'clock one, don't worry, it will still fit but the dial feet will have to be broken and adjusted.

Some confusion could have arisen because the some FFF dial's date cut-out window is at 3, and some at 4. However, in Dagaz and Yobokies stores, this 3 or 4 is actually referring to the crown position of the watch.

For the SNZH5x series, the crown is at 3, while the SKX00x series is at 4.

For straps its ok either tight or loose,

But for bracelet not recommended to wear too loose. May cause the bracelet to lose shape over time.

Lose shape? How? Haha metal leh

 

[gaoxing84]

I prefer it to be snug fit.. dont like it loose because its more prone to knocks and not to mention the feeling of the watch sliding on the wrist.

Snug! Me too. For strap snug is good, for bracelet I like it loose. Not too loose, just loos enough for me to wriggle up and down. Haha

yea. i bought the 4oclock 1. so need to break the dial feet. now the dial abit crooked. a little bit only.

I measured and I got a 6.5" wrist and then I measured my watch leather strap from bucket to the hole I insert is 7".. Not so loose but comfortable.. Gf say i wear very tight tho.. She like it that the watch can swing to another side easily.. I personally feel that just a bit of gap will do with Singapore hot weather as our wrist are usually at its largest.. When go intosuper cold cinema.. The watch will automatic turn loose because wrist turn smaller.. If already wear loose, then it will become super loose..

Who likes to wear watches loose?
Who likes to wear watches tight?

Let's go! Haha. My new strap on my pam is comfy but people may think it's too loose. Haha

Gaoxing, do note that the more you wear the strap, the leather will stretch, so from snug to slight loose fit. FYI.

Just the nature of leather.

The hong Kong post tracking is really useless hahaha
Still deciding on J or K too but should be J ba.

The strap is here and it looks gorgeous!

Good weekend everyone!

It's a 22 mm strap on 21 mm lugs? Is it difficult to fit?

 

[yattokame]

Looking back......

This was the pic (not forgetting Daniel.Y's pic that made me rush down to K2) that got me high on the snzh57. Ordered the black sailcloth from bradystrap only to realize mr goh has a cheaper paros variant....


Then decided to mod 02 x snzh53...... Ordered dials and blue sailcloth straps from brady only to have my old man tells me he prefers it stock. Then the missus told me she wants this......very marine feel.


Then I kena poisoned again and decided to do this


So now I may end up with
02 x blue with blue stitching sailcloth straps from bradystraps
01 x black with black stitching sailcloth strap from bradystraps and
01 x fff blue sunburst dial (3:00 crown) for sale.

Sigh. See how it goes.

What a month it has been.

P/S btw i forgot who wanted the dial ah...? Someone chopped a few pages ago....

Yep, that's right. That's one thing which I don't really like about the Bam in fact, the weird 21mm sized lugs. It wasn't too difficult to fit in the 22mm strap though.

 

[shorty07]

Alamak...my pic appear. How to link using handphone? Anyway snzh57 no more j model.

My Pilot Chronograph also has 21 mm lugs as well. Got a Kevlar wannabe strap for it but still prefers the SS bracelet.

Looking for 22 mm yellow or orange or red rubber strap for my Pebble Steel. Any recommendations?!
