I dunno how else to describe this beauty but gawddamnit, its fabulous! Glad i chose this colour combi over the gold lettering combi

Picture dont do the watch any justice and the bezel is super smooth when i turn it....strap looks fantastic! Very dark brown with white stitching to complement the dial....

this baby pips my iron clad mini tuna for most favourite watch position!

by the way, just wanna gather some opinions. the lug width for this watch is the same as the monster. I have a monster bracelet lying around and i was thinking of swapping the leather strap for the bracelet. would it look nice? this watch's original strap looks too nice to be worn lol and im thinking of just putting them into storage
Very nice :grin: congrats!

The monster bracelet uses fat springbars, so it'll be loose if you use back the stock bars of this watch. In any case I find the leather strap a better match for the vintage-esque off-white dial...

i thought so too....but i tend to have quite bad taste so i was thinking of asking around. Thanks for confirming the decision bro! I bought it specifically cos of the vintage-esque off-white dial!

yea bro...my heaviest watch too n i love it!



ah, tats the yobokies bra eh, looks good. i actually prefer yours

how the hell u get the watch under your french cuff?
i tailor my shirts in bkk so i normally will ask them to make my left cuff a lil larger to accommodate thicker watches... im in another cuffed shirt today and the iron clad bugger can safely hide in the cuffs again while waiting to pounce on unsuspecting prey lol!

Bro Miker,

Thanks for the kind comments! i fell for the watch the moment i saw the modded piece on yobokies' picture page!

i'll normally wear a medium sized g-shock when im in bkk so that should be a good gauge for how much allowance u need for the cuff

For me, i choose to do both cuff bigger. one bigger than another is just pure weird especially if you are not wearing a bigger watch that day. The mismatch is just too big.

Another benefit of 2 bigger cuff, I can wear a big lefty watch. Just sharing. ;)

understand too bro. was my concern too when i was 1st told this idea by the tailor then but i guess he did a pretty good estimate..heh the fit came out looking ok. the left cuff is bigger but not noticeable when the shirt is worn
