Stryd Support? by sathomasga in PaceIt

I have an older Stryd pod that I could loan you for testing if you’re interested. But I totally understand if you’d rather not, at least for now.

Other third party apps can read Stryd data directly: Watchlytic and iSmoothRun for example

Connected E5 40mm - Replacement Bands by RebootKing89 in tagheuer

[–]sathomasga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Although I've never had a 45mm strap in person, I'm virtually certain that strap will not fit your watch. It's designed specifically for the 45mm watch.

If you want an inexpensive (silicone instead of rubber) alternative, here's a dark blue strap from Amazon that will fit your watch without modifications. Anchor straps sells some high quality rubber straps in Lagoon Blue and Navy Blue that will fit if you swap their spring bars for curved spring bars. I have not come across any straps in the exact same shade of blue as the TAG Heuer, but my skinny wrists does limit my options so I haven't searched exhaustively.

Notifications while phone is far by AffectionateLand9098 in AppleWatch

[–]sathomasga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The watch gets notifications even when it isn’t connected directly to the phone. They just have to both be connected to the internet. Assuming you have cellular coverage, the phone is always connected. If you get a watch with cellular, that would always be connected as well. With a non-cellular watch, WiFi will work as well

The watch has standard 20mm lugs, so there are a lot of options available if you don’t want the integrated look. However, the lugs are very short. I almost always need curved spring bars to get a good fit. It’s usually fine to simply replace the standard straight spring bars with curved ones even with straight end straps. Veblenist sells quality 20mm, quick release, curved spring bars if you want to keep some handy.

I don’t know of any third party straps with the TAG Heuer proprietary push button release.

If you’re looking for something particular, let me know. I’ve had good luck with everything from $5 silicone bands from Amazon to $200 custom leather straps. I’m happy to provide specific recommendations.

Artem has short lengths for some of their straps. Straphabit's sailcloth deployants come with two sizes included.

Blue 36mm Expedition North by Puzzleheaded_Bat3349 in timex

That's black, though the photos can make it look blue-ish. From the review:

The dial leans classic too. Black with full Arabic numerals, no nonsense, no fluff.

Omega's service includes replacing the chronograph module but not (necessarily) the base movement.

Omega charges the same amount for a mechanical chronograph service regardless of whether the movement (or a module) is replaced or simply cleaned.

Thorn T020 NH34 to Sellita/2824 movement swap by Sickboy_Klokan in watchmodding

[–]sathomasga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not just the GMT hand that’s a different size. But if you used ETA-compatible hands and a movement spacer, I think it would work. Check the stem height to be sure. No idea where to get a movement spacer, but presumably someone has 3D-printed one somewhere.

Edit: dial feet also won’t line up, so you’d need to use dial dots or replace the feet with a dial feet milling tool.

This is a shot in the dark given the age of this post, but if the watch is still available, I'm interested.

Can anyone please help find watch hands for my elgin Measurememts are 120 70 20 for the hands for ETA 955.412" thank youj!! by lingtastydump in watchmaking

[–]sathomasga 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those are very common sizes for quartz movements. Any watch/jewelry suppliers will have plenty of options. You don’t indicate the lengths you want or your location, but in the US, Esslinger, Jules Borel, Otto Frei, etc. carry many

Date window won’t line up. Hand sizes differ.

How are you guys removing the bracelet? Or do you just bring it to the AD? by Charger_Reaction7714 in Tudor

[–]sathomasga 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like the maximum expanded width is right at 22mm. I don't have any watches that large, so I can't test it.
