Omega SEAMASTER 300 BAKELITE

Dumb question re snapback
This is probably a pretty elementary question, but I am at wit's end and need some advice.I recently purchased a Revue Thommen Landmark (Lhotse Expedition commemorative) quartz watch new w/o tags. I bought the piece as a daily-use beater, and I love the watch, realizing that it is not the quality level (or price) of most Revue Thommen pieces.I popped off the back recently just to look at what was signed/printed on the quartz movement (ETA nomenclature, jewels, etc) and I cannot get the ****ed caseback back on. I have tried everything including putting the caseback in the freezer to make it small as possible while holding the case in the blast of a space heater to get it to expand a bit, and then putting them together. Didn't work.The caseback has a rubber or plastic O-ring, and surrounding the movement is a tan vinyl circular separator that simply sits loosely around the movement. There is plenty of space, I think, to accomodate the lip of the caseback and the rubber O-ring.I'll admit

Newbie with a question..
Hey everyone.I'm sure you have heard this all before but I am trying to build a portfolio to further my career in horological photography. I have a small watch collection of my own and I hope to build on it as time goes on.My problem is I have hundreds of photographs of my watches and some of my friends but getting access to peoples pride and joy is understandably quite difficult. I wondered if you would be kind enough to offer me some advice as to where I could photograph watches, or even if any of the members would consider letting me photograph your collection in return for all the images. I would need space and time with each timepiece, but I'm willing to travel around the south of England. I live near London. Below I've tried to attach a mock up of the kind of work I do. I'm really just trying to improve my skills and become really good at what I do.2015-05-26_01-38-04.jpgPlease feel free to check out my Instagram@m4d_fishThank you so much for your time reading and I would love to

AP 26400 novelty strap thread
I don¡¯t think there is a thread on the strap choices we have for the 26400. I thought by starting a thread dedicated to this may be beneficial. I for one was looking for pics of a 26400 SO mounted with different straps before ordering. So, I will start the thread with the few straps I have accumulated for my 44mm.

Interest in vintage seamaster 300
Hello all,I have recently gained an interest in the vintage seamaster 300s, similar to those made by watchco. Does anyone have any advice into sourcing one of these? There is a few interesting examples on the bay, but as usual the authenticity is questionable on some. I am particularly fond of the ones with bracelets and no date. I have done numerous searches and found lots of great information, but would like to probe the community again for some opinions. I am unsure of the rules on links but will post an example of one I have in question if allowed. I look forward to reading your responses.

My local AD just lost Patek
I really hate to see this. They've had the account for almost a hundred years. Apparently they're making deals. Call Joe McNaught at 405-232-8806. I've bought three from him. He's a great guy and easy to deal with. Sent from my SM-G935T using Tapatalk
