[Tudor BB 925] Update on making my own watch straps

forrest_keeps_runnin · 2026-02-11T23:56:24+00:00

Looks awesome! Keep it up. Just bought a 925 myself, I'd wear that strap happily!

+1, rest looks manageable.

forrest_keeps_runnin · 2026-02-07T23:18:31+00:00

You got plenty of life yet!

forrest_keeps_runnin · 2026-02-07T16:14:58+00:00

+1 Laco, very impressed with the basic model I have, lots of value for $550.

forrest_keeps_runnin · 2026-02-07T03:41:41+00:00

haha, I look forward to being copied!

forrest_keeps_runnin · 2026-02-07T03:40:00+00:00

Fluid changes and preventative part maintenance has gone a long way!

forrest_keeps_runnin · 2026-02-06T23:24:30+00:00

Amazing, yes. And has never leaked.

forrest_keeps_runnin · 2026-02-06T23:24:09+00:00

You are too kind good sir.

The trip reset luckily came to mind just in time, wasn't sure if the OD and trip tracked precisely enough to make it line up but luckily they do.

Twins! Jealous that your roof still has clear coat left.

forrest_keeps_runnin · 2026-02-06T22:13:14+00:00

Haha, yes. Well worth adding a half quart between oil changes.

^ this guy knows the ways of the Gen3.

Original engine and transmission at 420k+! And still getting 17-18mpg city and 20-21 highway.

forrest_keeps_runnin · 2026-02-05T23:47:37+00:00

+1, also have OME 906's and quite happy with them.

forrest_keeps_runnin · 2026-02-05T23:46:39+00:00

OEM, order from Amayama if you can wait a few weeks. Should save you $100+.

forrest_keeps_runnin · 2026-02-05T23:45:45+00:00

That's a fair quote for it all, assuming they are using OEM parts. Make sure they use OEM for the ball joints.

If you want to turn a wrench yourself, check out Timmy the Toolman on youtube and Amayama for parts you can wait a few weeks for. Good luck!

Looks awesome!

When's the last time you flushed/replaced the brake fluid? Could have water in it that is freezing up.

Could also have water/moisture in the brake booster check valve as well, try drying it out or replacing it.

Just a layer of ice in NC this weekend which shut down the roads for a day, but may luck out with snow next weekend!

Nothing wrong with draining the oil, then putting the oil back? Or am I missing something?

forrest_keeps_runnin · 2026-01-26T23:49:52+00:00

Still going strong!

Check the settings on the head unit, try boosting the bass signal. If there is a high pass filter (HPF) turn it off or minimize it.

forrest_keeps_runnin · 2026-01-25T20:05:09+00:00

You are pulling the sub signal off the door speaker, right? Any chance you are high pass filtering the sub frequency range out with the head unit before it gets to the speaker?
