taukappaepsilon 0 Posted April 14, 2013 Will the Nautilus and or aquanat (spelling?) fit on a 6inch wrist? Which one would you recommend? I have an ex2, 1665 and pam 111. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RichardMiami 4 Posted April 14, 2013 The nautilus comes on a steel bracelet which can be adjusted to fit a 6 inch wrist. The aquanaut usually comes on a rubber strap... someone else will have to answer for that as I haven't had one (yet) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skin_oi_skin 0 Posted April 14, 2013 Go with the nautilus. Beautiful watch. And the bracelet is easy to size with any eyeglass repair kit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taukappaepsilon 0 Posted April 14, 2013 Thanks Richard. Would it be a fair trade to trade an original NOS (waterproofed to 3.2atm) MBW 1665 for a nautilus? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RichardMiami 4 Posted April 14, 2013 there are several different levels of Nautilus out there, with prices ranging for accuracy and movement. How much would you value the NOS at? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taukappaepsilon 0 Posted April 14, 2013 there are several different levels of Nautilus out there, with prices ranging for accuracy and movement. How much would you value the NOS at? Probably $400-$500. Just took off the wrapping last week. Has eta movement and proven (with pics) WR. I'd want highest quality Nautilus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James. 4 Posted April 14, 2013 Mbw for sw ultimate naut is about right. Naut all the way, my next watch. Pure class. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RichardMiami 4 Posted April 14, 2013 My Australian friend is correct... the ultimate Nautilus would trade for that much .. check the date window being flush to the "3" side of the dial (no dots) and an open caseback. Variations in value based on the strap though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

_DC_ 218 Posted April 14, 2013 My wrist is just over 6 inches but not by much, here's mine. That help? The Nautilus is not a big watch, it's actually pretty small! DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taukappaepsilon 0 Posted April 14, 2013 Are there more links that you can still remove? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_DC_ 218 Posted April 14, 2013 Yeah still 3 links that can be removed, the links are quite small but there's just under another inch still to be removed I reckon DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taukappaepsilon 0 Posted April 14, 2013 Thanks DC. What do you think of yours? I'm trying to trade my NOS MBW 1665 for an SW200 Nautilus. Do you think thats a fair trade? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_DC_ 218 Posted April 14, 2013 Yeah that sounds fair to me, the SW200 new is about $500 at the moment! It's a lovely watch, you won't regret getting one!! DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
taukappaepsilon 0 Posted April 14, 2013 Thank DC. I'm looking for the same one as you. Have you had yours waterproofed/pressure tested by any chance? What did it pass to? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_DC_ 218 Posted April 14, 2013 Well my blue dial Nautilus isn't an SW200 its an A4813, less than half the price and still a lovely watch! I'm probably going to sell mine soon to get the SW200 though as I wear it all the time so it's worth spending the money for the better movement and more accurate case/crown/dial!!

taukappaepsilon 0 Posted April 14, 2013 A4813, is that a 21j? Who did you get yours from? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_DC_ 218 Posted April 14, 2013 Yes it's 21j, got it from Watch International! DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KRON-O 0 Posted May 8, 2013 I just got the same watch from Watch International with the SW200 movement. It is absolutely gorgeous. I have a question about resizing the bracelet though, as I want to be particularly careful with this beauty and not mess anything up. Do I push the pins out as normal, or do I need to unscrew them? (I notice that one side of the pins looks flat, while the other side looks like a small, flat screw). Any advice would be appreciated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trailboss99 994 Posted May 8, 2013 I'm thinking they will be screw pins mate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
black263 228 Posted May 8, 2013 They could be screw pins or split pins like Tag uses. Try unscrewing first and if that doesn't work, try pushing out from the flat end, so the split end comes out.

myaz 3 Posted May 8, 2013 You can remove up to 6 links, 3 on each side. Look at scale for link width. You'll need to remove 5 or 6 for a 6" wrist but it'll work. Enjoy the watch, it's a stunner. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
