Best pocket watch movement to use in a pilot case
Don't know if this has been discussed in the past but here goes.I have two bulova pocket watch movements 17AE and 17AH Also the seconds is at the six o'clock position with the crown at 12.Here is the question, I put together a pilot watch with the clone of the 6497 that puts the seconds hand at the nine o'clock position. Does anyone think or know if the same dial for the 6497 will fit a 17AE/17AH.. I know dial dots will most likely be used and source some hands.. A while back I saw a YouTube video with a 17AH in a pilots case showing the back of the watch and nothing else. Any opinions, assistance and advise would be greatly appreciated.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Chronomat on its way out
I hear the former flagship watch, the Chronomat is being discontinued along with possibly the Super Avenger. They are pushing the in house movements which is fine but the new watch designs are pretty ugly in my opinion. I have no idea what Breitling are doing anymore.

Deepsea and rubber b on large wrist
Hi new to the forum so would like to say hello to everyone. I¡¯ve had a deepsea blue for about 18 months and am thinking of a rubber b buckle type strap. My wrist is about 8 inches and am not sure if the strap would look sensible,meaning not enough strap left to tuck into the keeps properly. Would love to see a few pictures with this strap on a large wrist many thanks Jay
