      There's a video of how Tudor make their fabric straps.

      And a review of the Black Bay, which I stumbled across whilst trying to find the above.

        I (finally) decided to go with this cheap workhorse…

        IFIe,tO,IWBSKhLuJ-mw~~60_12.JPG)

        For 155 €, you get:

        • a Japan made watch
        • with a sapphire dial
        • and a titanium bracelet
        • Japanese quartz mvt that runs on light (no battery needed!)
        • 5 year warranty

        I dare you to find better value for money… Granted: you might find a less dull looking watch for the money but I'll be saving for a nice dress watch anyhow...

              The Japan made Citizen and Seikos always punch high for the price. Sometimes they look dull in pics, but on the wrist you can pick up all of the subtleties that only natural light can define. The Citizen Chronomaster looks like something from JC Penny… Until you see it in person! Mind blowingly beautiful. So nicely done Seul! As for a higher end dress watch, go for a Nomos!

                As for dress watch: first Seiko SARB065, in the long run I want an Omega Aqua Terra, blue dial, 41.5mm…

                  Good taste Mr Seul. I almost forgot to post the watch my wife bought me for Christmas. It is a Nomos New York Sundial. You set the date on the outer ring and allow the sun to shine on the aperture which projects onto the inner ring which shows the time. Be it a little unconventional but pretty neat!

                    Interesting, how accurate is it?  Nomos always does cool stuff.

                                      babynight, your 1969 Submariner is "proper".
                                      I covet the Rolex Deep Sea Sea Dweller with a blue face, a current limited edition Roles DSSD.

                                          @den1mhead, that DSSD is a cool piece indeed, especially that dial.
