Wow that’s great to hear. He can do good work (I’ve had mixed experiences with his bracelet repair), but sometimes it takes quite awhile.

Same but I could see online.

swaini3 · 14 January 2021, 06:35 PM

bracelet looks great.... Hoping the same for the watch

winst · 14 January 2021, 07:22 PM

Great result on the bracelet - can’t wait to see it reunited with the watch when you get it back.

Woody · 14 January 2021, 08:29 PM

That is a real transformation. Looking forward to seeing this all come together in the coming weeks

Is that the same bracelet???
Looks brand new.
Right on...

Photos display fine for me on my iPhone. Looks fantastic! I hope you don’t need to remove any links to get it to fit your wrist!

Nice to see that the wetsuit extension is there. I wasn’t sure it survived the bracelet’s dismemberment.

This is certainly a great before/after photo set for Michael Young.

Stan Cooper · 15 January 2021, 03:40 AM

Wow! The bracelet looks awesome! Nicely done.

Jackie Daytona · 15 January 2021, 03:55 AM

Looking good. Excited to see the rest once it’s all put back together.

Styles Bitchley · 15 January 2021, 05:44 AM

Just curious: Is your watchmaker putting in a Truedome crystal? Obviously the original is totally shot.

Brian Page · 15 January 2021, 06:35 AM

This is great! Can't wait to see the whole thing!

Hi mate, I wish I knew. I havent heard anything regarding his plans. My main fear now is about all the old parts.

Hang on there, man! Miracles do happen. I just heard from my guy (the one I told you about) and my Sub is now in the hands of FedEx and on its way here, after a wait of...

...SIXTEEN MONTHS

Well, it seems like it’s out of your hands in any case. Thank you for sharing all of this with us, hopefully it will serve as a cautionary tale to other folks.

No, not yet, but at least I have the bracelet. Hopefully it is not too much longer. If the delays and issues were partly due to covid, well it is all but contained down here, so hopefully he can hire some more staff to get through the backlog.

BigBlue1 · 22 January 2021, 11:02 AM

The lack of communication is so messed up on the watch makers part. I don’t care what he’s got going on. If it’s medical and its rendered him incapacitated that’s one thing but if he’s just dicking you along that’s messed up. You have a lot more reserve and restraint than me. I would of been down there along time ago. I am truly hoping for a positive outcome for you but the more and more this drags on I’m afraid I am less and less hopeful.

The bracelet on the other hand was magnificently fine tuned. Looks great and even better o. That beautiful watch.

Good Luck
