Thommo82 1,397 Posted July 4, 2017 Looks nice. How easy is the strap to resize on these? (I've only ever resized an Omega CrPO bracelet that had screws so it was nice and easy). I didn't have to resize at all Watch for my missus perfectly If I had to guess I'd say she has a 6.75 inch wrist I did read a review of this on the gate saying he couldn't figure out how to resize and had to take to a jeweller Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NCRich 13,748 Posted July 4, 2017 It isn't hard to resize if you have a pin pusher and a soft mallet. My wife has 4 of these I bought years ago. There were only $60 from MR 3 or 4 years ago and they have held up really well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Griffo 6 Posted July 4, 2017 I want to get my missus something that's small. She has a Michael Kors watch, but wants something smaller.

I think I'll be getting my missus a Cartier too though, so let me know how this one goes. As a wise man once said, "let the gumballs drop" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Griffo 6 Posted July 4, 2017 I'll grab one for the missus. The Fifty Fathoms that Hamblehound posted from DHGate looks awesome as well in this thread: http://www.rwg.bz/board/index.php?showtopic=121532 And for only $137.15 shipped to the UK (about £105?) it looks a bargain: http://www.dhgate.com/product/new-luxury-fifty-fathoms-45mm-ref-5015-1130/379201327.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ffuhcu 3 Posted July 4, 2017 (edited) Thanks for the bracelet tips, will have a bash. Ordered more or less the same model as Genius in the end just in white + rose gold, plus a 33mm stainless steel white textured dial Ballon Bleu from the same seller. Order came to around £47 shipped and represents my first non TD purchase. Same as OP, for the missus it had to be quartz, I usually get given her watches to adjust for daylight savings while I'm doing the rest of the house.

Mine prefers quartz but she also has a DateJust auto rep I got her, if I'm around shell ask me to set it, if not shell just wear it with the wrong time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ffuhcu 3 Posted July 19, 2017 (edited) Mine just arrived too. 33mm Ballon Bleu and a Chanel something or other. Still got the plastic on while I have a bash at sizing them. ( EDIT: Resized the Ballon Bleu no problem ) Apologies for potato pic, actually pretty happy with them both so far. Not pictured: Same little orange pin pusher Griffo posted.
