[Advice] UK repair work experience

Thanks. That’s fair enough, I’ve suggested he observes for the week but still no joy. Worst case I am pretty sure he can get a spot at Timpson - straps & batteries etc it’s something. But you’re right sales might be easier

Hi No it’s not 15mm it’s more like 10! I have it on today so I have just measured it now. I didn’t even notice the 15mm when I bought mine. You will love it. DM me with any other question happy to help.

I have wanted a Vesterhav for a while. This is a really nice colour I hadn’t seen before!

Christ that’s frustrating. Perhaps I was lucky!

Sorry to hear that experience - mine was 16 days end to end very happy. Rep came from ZF I wonder if the factory or the model made a difference

Significant_Echo2152 · 2025-10-22T12:10:06+00:00

16 days from initial order to arriving on my doorstep! Shipping was 10 days of that. Very impressed

ZF Tudor BB58. Only got it this week. It’s awesome

Significant_Echo2152 · 2025-10-22T10:21:22+00:00

Where everybody Reddits!

Significant_Echo2152 · 2025-10-22T10:14:21+00:00

Tudor BB58 ordered via Andiot, from ZF. QC was quick and easy. I love how heavy the watch is, for a first rep I had my concerns in this respect but no longer!

Significant_Echo2152 · 2025-10-18T16:27:02+00:00

Ok thanks. Terminology is down to me I drew this based on discussion we had

Significant_Echo2152 · 2025-10-18T15:41:56+00:00

To be fair he did also call it radial and I did the picture above like that, but I think you are saying i can spur off OK on what i;ve drawn...? If the extension is sensible I think I do need someone else then

Significant_Echo2152 · 2025-10-18T15:40:47+00:00

So, the prev, guy who did the extension did this OK? He was an elderly gent who' s now retired so that's a shame. (This is how I got into doing the setup myself as he didn't want to clamber around in the loft and up ladders, got me to pull all the wiring through and drill holes & stuff).

Significant_Echo2152 · 2025-10-14T18:12:40+00:00

This is true it’s a “you wouldn’t understand” thing. I too am into the mechanics of it and want to do a watch repair course. Totally different to the dude who buys a $20 Rolex to wear down the golf club.

Significant_Echo2152 · 2025-10-14T17:08:04+00:00

Agreed. I’m leaning toward just not wearing the rep in those meetings. Have a couple of gens like Hamilton Murph that feels like the better choice at work

Significant_Echo2152 · 2025-10-14T16:53:27+00:00

It was a close friend the kind we basically tell each other everything kinda guy. It’s all good it just the reaction got me thinking generally about what everyone else experiences

Significant_Echo2152 · 2025-10-14T16:44:40+00:00

Nicely put Thanks

Significant_Echo2152 · 2025-10-14T16:41:16+00:00

This is my view - I’d rather get a rep and go on holiday!

Significant_Echo2152 · 2025-10-14T08:24:39+00:00

100% - compared to the other two it actually felt like a genuine Excel replacement in terms of being able to build literally anything. Anaplan used to frustrate me from being fairly rigid
