Re: New Seiko Landmaster SLA071

Looks good. I guess I didn’t realize this particular titanium does look like stainless steel. May give this a try. [emoji106]

Can you share some photos on nato? Thanks Russ

New Seiko Landmaster SLA071

This photo (from a Google search) better highlights the dial, but it’s much nicer in person.

Re: New Seiko Landmaster SLA071

Well, I now have one of these and it’s much better than I expected. The “super hard titanium” looks excellent and makes it comfy to wear. The clasp has the micro-adjust of the MM300, but is significantly thinner. It’ll wear great on even smaller wrists. The compass bezel, while not as useful as a di...

Re: 2/14/24 Spring Novelties

That’s a pricey quick adjust buckle. I think about same as Omega. Worth it. Agree. I've bought more than a few of Omega's 1154 clasps (that fits so many old and new bracelets) and was a steal at $110-$120. Last time I bought them they were about twice as much IIRC, not insanely cheap anymore. The t...

WRUW ---> SATURDAY 03 02 24

Big day today. This also just in. I can’t even begin to describe how beautiful the dial is. No way to capture in photos, but its depth is amazing. Grand Seiko level finish. Just….wow! Runs the new 8L35 like the latest 62mas, so I expect accuracy. It’s thin too, at 12.7. Super hard Titanium. MM300 st...

How it works with the new clasp ?
It’s excellent. I did a post in the Sinn Novelties thread.

Just saw this on WB site: Initially this new quick adjust buckle is only available as part of a complete bracelet, and only to fit the specific watch models below. At the end of this month, we will offer this buckle for sale as a separate part to add to an existing Sinn bracelet for the watch models...

FYI. It’s not as grave as the Facebook & TikTok posts suggest, but probably good to turn off this setting.

Re: 2/14/24 Spring Novelties

I received the non-Tegimented bracelet today for the UX. Mine was delivered on rubber, so I needed the complete bracelet. I did speak with one of the Watchbuys guys last Wednesday and he seems do think they will eventually offer just the clasp. First impressions: Typical Sinn build quality, good. Mi...

Good morning kids! I don’t usually wear leather (unless that’s ALL I wear) but this strap works great with the 856 right? IMG_4473.jpeg Not always! Found this photo from your modeling days.
