The Watch Thread - Part 3

[xiaozonx]

You just have to see which hole is your buckling hole, secure it to the buckling pin (the tall "nipple"), leaving the flap open. Slide your wrist through and pull the 2 flaps together. Once connected, lock it in place with the clip, which is on the same side as the buckling pin.

Done!

thanks bro!! appreciate your help!

 

[yattokame]

Very nice! From AD? What was the damage?

Ya pal, local AD. about 45k.

 

[patryn33]

your hand so smooth...haha...how much shipping? i got german friend going back germany for xmas. if buy there cheaper than online/spore?

Still need to pay shipping maybe lower but u have to pay the German tax. German cannot get vat refund so it's more costly

 

[highsulphur]

Ya pal, local AD. about 45k.

So you got it in the end. Congrats!

 

[yattokame]

My grail piece, when i hoot this, i promise to stop hooting anymore watches

hey guys which website yall buy steinhart watches?

 

[dmitri]

hey guys which website yall buy steinhart watches?

The Steinhart official website. Or your next best option is Gnomon Watches.

I like how the dial is done - it reflects light at different angles as the dial is not flat. some parts will appear a brighter shade than the rest.


The micro rotor is what I really like - it does not block the view of the beautiful movement.


Just a vain shot of the watch and the car. feel the rolex suits the S300 better than this patek though.

The third pic showcases its beauty very well, I like its mini rotor as well! now you got a family heirloom liao. I hope the day when I get my first patek comes faster.

Hahaha, that's highly unlikely lah.

hey guys which website yall buy steinhart watches?

To be honest I sorta prefer buying from Gnomon. It costs slightly more but any problem just pass to them. Very convenient. Buy from steinhart any problem have to send to them direct, quite ma fan. If through gnomon have to pay extra.

So for me I rather pay that bit more for potential convenience.

 

[dmitri]

hi guys, just receive my watch today but have no idea how to set my watch buckle up

anyone can help me??

This looks extremely weird to me. That clasp is for bracelets, it's not a deployant clasp commonly used on leather straps.

There is no way you can fit that clasp on a leather strap.

 

[standarture]

hmm maybe he bought the wrong clasp.

 

[TeenTitan01]

Ya pal, local AD. about 45k.

[yattokame]

so when are you getting the ap royal oak jumbo?
