    <<<<< WRUW - TUE - 28th July 2015 >>>>>

    Have a great day everybody!!


    after my initial intention to keep the my SKX007 on bracelet, finally i put it on selfmade leather (after seeing all the pict from the net and Brice).. i do like the look of the bracelet but i didnt wear the watch as much, so this transformation really change the feel of the watch... the thick leather is very soft and comfy and the very short lug to lug distance help the watch fits my wrist so well..

    not my best looking work, but for now it would do the job for this watch.. =)

    i can always switch back to bracelet latter, but for now i really enjoy this combo... (yeah, i know the perfect solution is to get another 009 pepsi to use one bracelet hehehe..)

    edit: i dont know what's wrong but it seem my picts dont show up and have to be clicked.. bummer.

    I'm reusing photos, but definitely wearing this tomorrow.






    This is not my watch, however, I wanted to share it with everyone. One of my students has been wearing this Slimline FC. It looks great in person.

    Too many watches, not enough wrists.

    I like how the leather looks. I think it is better looking than on bracelet. If only I have your skills and patience.....the options are endless.

    Was going to go Speedy Tuesday but a last minute change of mind to the Black Black Bay. This has quickly become a favourite in the last couple weeks now.

    Sidenote: I upgraded my iPad this evening and now all of a sudden everyone's pictures are showing inky as links to the images, and not embedding the images themselves. Only on this forum though. Strange.mwonder if there is something in the settings I can change. Anyone else have this happen? Perhaps the iOS update was just a coincidence, however unlikely that may be...

    Edit: nope, forum settings still shows to display all images. Guess I'll just have to live with it. Rather unfortunate as so much of the forum is based on images.

    thanks Nutty... i dont mind this kind of look since my collections are mostly tool watch -- not luxury dress watch that need beautiful glossy leather...

    BUT, why on earth do you want to make your own straps? you can buy any of the best straps on the market...

    for me, if i have lots of spare cash for this hobby, then -- the options are endless hehehe..
    have a great day in Spore buddy!
