243ack Posted February 17, 2017 Report Share Posted February 17, 2017 Having been a Rolex devotee for 50 years, I treated myself to a new datejust 2 years ago (cos failing eyesight prevented me seeing the silver batons on the silver dial I had). It has just been sent back to manufacturers as it started losing half an hour per day!!. Whilst I was in Goldsmiths, I took a fancy to an Omega co-axial, purely on the grounds that I knew the inventor and patentee of the movement (George Daniels). What do you 'Wis'' think of the Co-axial?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tikka4Sika Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 My 20+ year old GMT Master`s stainless strap is getting a bit worn and I`m getting a bit concerned it may give way, can anyone recommend a strap repairer / refurbisher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy W Posted March 13, 2017 Report Share Posted March 13, 2017 That looks really nice John, and no doubt by the same jewellers who did ours. I was lucky enough to get number 1. The quality is superb, and the service is first class, you won't be disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Binnzy Posted March 14, 2017 Report Share Posted March 14, 2017 I've had mine for 16yrs now, and I believe one of the first series of the customized military Breitlings. 4 batteries and 6 straps and it still only loses 1 sec per month. The crystal is still perfect, other than the fingerprints! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brown dog Posted May 11, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2017 Chatting with a UKVer last night and had to take a pic when I spotted that they have succumbed to the 'not a WIS' precision rifle / precision watch fascination: 6 digit submariner on the left, 5 digit gmt2 on the right.
