racingclub 0 Posted December 15, 2013 The clasp and sharp edges on my work MacBook Pro don't mix very well, but I'm not letting it worry me too much (that's what a service is for right?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kwt 11 Posted December 15, 2013 Excellent mate. Great photos and it looks the business. Lot of hard work there. Nice after market case as well! My gen on Di Modell Chronissimo Black Leather says hello! Aha, cheers mate! Where'd you get the strap from? Looks great!! Was thinking of getting a leather for when I want a change Hey man I got it from ebay. Just search the strap. This strap is fully waterproof and sweatproof and comes with it's own springbars if I recall. I got my watch professional re-furbed by watchfinders when I bought it from them and I have to say again yours looks just as good as the job as they did. Well done again.

Olly 0 Posted December 15, 2013 Oh my ! That is the way to do it. What method did you use to do the two tome bracelet ? Polish it all and use a strip of sandpaper between the lugs ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
