Elgin Trench Watch with BRAND NEW Olive Webbing, 1918 STRONGHOLD Buckle ! ! !
Hey guys ! ! !There has been a lot of talk about Olive Drab Webbing Khaki Trench Watch Straps lately on a couple of forums.As you guys know I have a couple of VERY old originals.The webbing is trashed and unusable but the HARDWARE is where the true value lays.I do not know of anybody who is making replacement Olive Drab Webbing Straps for WWI Trench Watches.So.................if nothing is available and it can't be bought ............................DO IT FOR YOURSELF ! ! ! ! ! Today was one of those days for me !I taught myself how to fabricate brand new Olive Drab Webbing Trench Watch Straps while using the ORIGINAL 1918 Sterling Silver hardware.I have several old WWI olive drab straps laying around my shop that had seen better days so they were deconstructed in order to see how they were fabricated.No loss as they were completely unusable.The hardest part was finding the 14mm and 16mm Olive Drab Webbing ! ! ! ! ! You can't just go down to your corner store and pick some up (not tell

Tissot PRS 200 Behavior
Hi,I received this watch today, and I want to know from the people who own it or the ones that know the movement type (ETA I guess), if this is a normal behavior, or I have to return it for exchange or refund...It has a Chronograph, with 1/10 of a second hand, second hand and 30 minutes hand...When I start the chronograph, the 1/10 hand doesn't move, the seconds and the minute hands, works well when the chrono is running...When I press the stop or split button, just then, the 1/10 hand moves to the elapsed portion, if restarted, it goes to 0 again, and if stopped again, it goes to the elapsed portion of time, the same if split stoppedIt's the first time I got a Swiss watch with this type of chronograph, and I usually see that my Seikos and Casios that have this feature (1/10, 1/20 or 1/100 second hand) runs this hand and spins like crazy ( specially the 1/100 Seiko)for 10 minutes on the Seikos, and 30 seconds on the Casios, end just then stops, and go to 0, and when stopped it moves t

5119 wow.
I had the day off yesterday so of course I went out to look at watches. My main target was the Lange 1, I liked it.My wife wanted to go to Tiffany & Co and they had a few pieces I had been wanting to check out. The first one I noticed was the 5196P. Originally I had been interested in this guy until I found out it doesn't have a crystal case back. Seeing it in person confirmed that it wasn't for me.Next was a 5124G, I quite liked this one. It reminds me of the JLC Reverso which I also enjoy. The new 5200 reference is something I'd probably really like if I had the funds and luck to get one.The title of course is the 5119J. This watch is just stunning and if I had the space on my card I would have probably bought it even though it had the Tiffany dial. They just got it and put it in the case hours earlier so I was the first person to try it on. I had no idea how intoxicating it would be, I went from 6 to midnight almost immediately. My wife said she preferred the rose gold
