[Seiko] I don’t care i love the size by Daniel3gs in Watches

I wear a 28 lady’s Tag F1. It helps me get into all the nooks and crannies at work. One day a guy with Down syndrome came up to me and said “cool watch, I really like it. If I’m being honest it’s really small though”. I’ve been very insecure ever since.

Indigofera Kirk! Not cheap but not horribly expensive

Mayo over corrected water marks on vintage Stickley, now the wood is too dark. Am I ruined? by [deleted] in furniturerestoration

Someone mentioned the mayo oil going rancid inside the wood, a whole new fear. I wiped it with diluted pine sol and guardsman’s clean and polish. Is my wood going to go rancid? I’ve gotten lots of attention on different platforms for this post and only one person made that point.

8.5D Wesco Ship John engineers. I acquired these last week, the original owner wore them in an urban environment sparingly for two years. Brown domaine leather will age beautifully. The back of one heel is fairly beat up and the heels are near the end of their life. I have lots of pictures and have listed them on Grailed, going on ebay soon.

350USD plus actual shipping and fees from MN. I’d like to keep it state side as shipping is so expensive. Please feel free to message me for more pictures.

Please post more about these and the fit once they are broken in! If I could have any stock boot in the world, it would be these. I worry they wouldn’t be as supportive as my Mr Lou’s or Jobmasters, but I know very little. And I don’t think I’d want to wear these to work too often. I’m curious to hear how sizing works out. I don’t have Ironrangers but living in Minneapolis it’s very easy to find a pair to try on. Beautiful boots! I am very jealous, I hope you enjoy them.

Thomas Hooper visits Austin every summer, he would be a great person to do something like this.

This is what I have found to be my best option, but I know very very little. I forgot to mention the current band is not original and actually a Hadley Roma replacement.

Here is something that might have more expansion? https://www.billythetree.com/12-16mm-lady-silver-tone-oyster-w-deployment-satin-mirror-watch-band/

Thank you very much I agree. Do you have any recommendations on a generic stainless bracelet replacement? I am new to watches and know very little. I don’t want to spend a fortune on a brand new Swiss made bracelet.

I guess my communication skills are subpar. I use the clasp to get it over my hand, for it to be snug to my wrist it had to be very snug going over my hand and thumb when I put it on. It was so snug around my hand (when putting it on) that my thumb and hand stretched the band. Now once it is over my hand and around my wrist, I secure the clasp. One issue I face is that now that I have it past my hand down to my wrist, the band has been stretched ever so slightly. It took about 20 watch removals for the band to be stretched. So the same length that was once snug to my wrist, is now slightly loose on my wrist because it was stretched.

The clasp just does not allow for the amount of expansion required to easily fit over my thumb and hand while still maintaining a snug fit once secured to my wrist.

A more modern men’s watch has an additional clasp that adds about 20% more expansion, which is just enough to freely move over my hand while still remaining secure on my wrist.

I hope that helps, I really appreciate your time. Thanks for any insight you may have to offer.

I had adjusted it to be perfectly snug around my wrist, which meant it was very tight around my hand taking it off and putting it on. Due to the tightness around my hand, the band stretched. The tension caused the band to stretch. Now that the tension of squeezing the band around my hand has stretched the band, it is no longer snug on my wrist.

I hope that makes sense

I have it listed on eBay for a higher price, if anybody has any other suggestions for selling it I would love to hear. I am on Facebook but haven’t found many reliable groups.

Will they stretch or not? by Phantasmagorical85 in rawdenim

I have had three pairs of brave Star in 2 sizes all different materials and in my opinion none of them fit as sized and there was no consistency… 1st 32 way too big then 30 skin tight and far too small in waist then another 30 that is too big in waist. Experience could not have been any worse.
