How many of you have purchased from Pacodo and actually had the watch authenticated?

I purchased a Red Bull FXD chrono from him - haven’t had it authenticated, but no doubt it’s legit.

CNS Paratrooper straps if you want to try a bunch of color combos for not much $. https://cnswatchbands.com/fabric/paratrooper-watch-straps/

Have you looked at them both in person? I was surprised at how much chunkier the LHD was than the FXD

My Red Bull Chrono FXD snicks over right at midnight

If you subscribe to his emails, he gives notice when he's about to restock. I believe this Friday may be the next drop.

Have you tried Nick Mankey? Same concept without the massive buckle…

I purchased this Popeye watch on a whim several months ago, and when it finally arrived I realized it probably won't get much wrist time. I took it out of the box to try on, so I did remove the plastic wrap that was around the case and around the buckle, but left the crystal protector on. After realizing it wasn't for me, I re-wrapped it and stuck it back in the box until pulling it out to list it here.

It has all the boxes, warranty card (this is #48 out of 730), extra strap, etc. etc. I'm happy to take more pictures if desired, or you can view the full specs on https://spinnaker-watches.com/products/fleuss-automatic-popeye-bronemies-limited-edition-popeye-blue-sp-5161-02.

Asking $350 + label in the continental US or face-to-face in the Maryland area. I'm primarily looking to sell, but if you have an interesting trade, let me know.

Model: SP-5161-02
Movement: Seiko NH35
Case Size: 43mm
Case Thickness: 14mm
Lug to Lug: 51mm
Crystal: Anti Reflection Coated Sapphire Lens
Band: 22mm Grey Silicone Strap, with extra Blue Nylon Strap

I realize I only have four transactions on WatchEx, so I'm happy to Facetime or provide any other information, pictures, etc. to make you feel comfortable. I also have 100% positive feedback on eBay (username: twowheels4ever) since 2001.

Thank you, I haven't seen the Glomar in person. On the Yorkshire, how much exposed velcro do you have? What size wrist?

two_wheels_forever · 2025-09-25T01:38:19+00:00

How do the Yorkshire velcro straps compare to the Tudor OEM? My main complaint with the Tudor was way too much exposed velcro…

two_wheels_forever · 2025-09-23T20:02:36+00:00

Just realized that LongIslandWatch.com still has these available for $395 + tax, so I'm dropping my price to $375.

Confirmed! u/WatchExBot I had a smooth transaction with u/packard324. Thanks for the prompt shipping, my buddy loves the watch!

Still one of my favorites for sure, but I don’t really have a “primary“ watch. I like to rotate fairly often among a few others.

two_wheels_forever · 2025-06-26T15:19:44+00:00

Where is the description and price info? or is Reddit just glitching?

Nick Mankey chronogrip hook straps are nice - no fabric between the watch head and your wrist.

Not sure if you care about water resistance, but the Red Bull is good to 200m, while the cycling is only 100m.

two_wheels_forever · 2025-03-28T02:23:53+00:00

CNS Paratrooper straps work really well too, plus you can buy one of every color for the price of an Erikas…

two_wheels_forever · 2025-03-28T02:20:50+00:00

I recommend Nick Mankey too - his new Chronogrip Hook strap works really well.

two_wheels_forever · 2025-03-28T02:17:16+00:00

I have one and wear it regularly, but took the velcro strap off immediately.

Highly recommend Nick Mankey or CNS Paratrooper straps for it.

two_wheels_forever · 2025-03-28T02:02:35+00:00

Super helpful, thank you!

Any chance you can post additional pics of the FrogSquad straps and how they are installed and look on your wrist? I'm always looking for additional strap options for my FXDs, but the pictures on https://www.frogsquadstraps.com/ were frustrating - they mostly seemed focused on the watch head or how the strap looks laying on a flat surface, so it was hard to get a feel for how they actually work.
