Super Engineer II + Seiko Monster
Picked up a Seiko Monster recently (SRP311) and decided it needed a new bracelet. I managed to get the original bracelet sized properly and didn't lose any collars (I am not a fan). I wore it for a week and constantly checked the bracelet to make sure one of the collars didn't fall out (okay, I'm anal). I had purchased a Super Engineer II before and loved what it did for my Victorinox Mach 6. Strapcode had a 20mm black model and now I have one too. Heck of a lot easier to size. Oh, did I mention, it's extremely comfortable. No it's not cinched super tight, just my contortion to shoot a wrist selfie. I do wear my watches tight enough that they don't move. edison

Very Unusual Vintage Solid Silver Cyma-Tavannes Watch
I came across this unusual Cyma-Tavannes watch made of solid silver and had to buy it. Now, I am trying to date the watch, but I am finding very little information on the webz about it. I know it pre-dates 1966 since that is when the Cyma-Tavannes Watch partnership was ended. That said, the characteristics of the watch lead me to believe it is much older than the sixties anyway, I am guessing, the forties? Aside from it being quite heavy, (the silver) and rather large for a watch from its era, it has been fitted with a very unusual face protector, or at least that is what I believe it was intended for? It has one last very unique feature to it, but I will save that for later conversation, assuming I get any interest on the subject of the date of manufacture of the watch. I haven't been on here in a while, but hopefully some of my old friends still frequent the forum and, more important, they are still as smart as they used to be! Thanks!

How rare is this watch? I went to a Montblanc boutique and they didn't have one...

Tudor Black Bay vs. 6 digit Sub fit/feel
Does anyone own the Tudor Black Bay and a Rolex 6 digit Sub? I'm interested in a screen shot of both on wrist AND would like to hear how the Tudor fits/feels on your wrist compared to the Sub. I like the Matt blue disk on straps offered but have yet to see one in person. FWIW, I own the LVc.
