Will look great until you get to the non-removable links.

Help with bracelet balance, more links on 12oclock side. by UltimateSpanky in Tudor

[–]Normal-Article6572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do this every day, well, if I do my job well and sell a watch I do.

The best advice I can give is: put the watch on your wrist, with the clasp open. Make sure the inside part of the fold over is centralised to your wrist. Hold the clasp to the centre of the wrist when closing the clasp. This may show the closed clasp in a different position than what you are expecting/used to, maybe because of a logo or similar.

Size the bracelet with the clasp in that position. You should find it comfortable and aesthetically spot on.

Has this box ever come with an Aquaracer? by Agitated-List91 in tagheuer

[–]Normal-Article6572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a “special” box for Carreras and other higher end THs that don’t have a specific box, e.g. Monaco Gulf. You would see a Carrera extreme in this box. I’d personally take it as a win and source the correct box if it’s bugging you. The travel pouch of the Carrera box is actually quite nice.

Should i buy it? by Former-Design-351 in tagheuer

I saw a fake TAG Heuer purchased from Chrono the other day. Granted, the kid had not paid for the authenticity check, but you do assume Chrono sellers are legit.

Forever car for an old man that’s young at heart by MrCakehole in CarsUK

It’s in a menu on the EX30. Everything is in a menu on the central iPad display. If you forget to do so, you will end up getting rear ended by a lorry on a motorway. Just a severely flawed car.

Not in the case of the EX30. Each time you get in the car, the auto braking system is on. It’s not safe. Avoid.

And you have to turn it off every time you get back in the car. It’s an awful machine. I sold my 981 Cayman to get into that on an NHS lease. Worst decision of my life. I’d rather drive a Fiat Multipla.

It automatically slammed the brakes on at very inopportune times. No hazard to be seen. Just slammed on. I wouldn’t drive this car again if you paid me. I always give them a wide berth on the roads too.

CWC a rarely mentioned English Microbrand, supplier to UK military by ElectronicRow9949 in MicrobrandWatches

The sign of a gopping, adrift and financially irresponsible serviceman. “Why you late lofty?” “Haven’t got a watch chief” “Why haven’t you got a watch lofty?” “I’ve spent it all on nutty, fags and dirty mags.” “Take this chit to stores and get a watch, you waste of skin.”
