My Luch-y day
Fresh off the boat from Moscow. Yet another re-sizing project. This strap needs at least 2 more holes to close in on my puny left wrist. Perhaps I just need to order a new ("short") strap?
The "one-hand" idea is growing on me.

yeah the luch ant to bad and the price seems reasonable seen them about £30 ish mark give or take a fiver was thinking about them the other week not sure of the gold dial one's but the black dials and the white dials one's do appeal the silver is great but got a lot of silver dials lol but saying that got a lot of white and black dials to haha think I would go for the white dial myself If I can get an older one all the better nothing wrong with the new one's just like the old one's more

I was right - 2 more holes punched and the strap is perfect. Well...it's still waving in the breeze - but it's secure on my wrist and feels comfortable.
Everything else I own is "pre-owned" - so "new, in hanger card with Russian instruction sheet" is a welcome addition - AND the price was considerably less than £30. The only downside was the wait for RussianPost to get it to me. But, I'm used to that by now.
Oh...BTW...I'm in love with my brand new hole puncher. Buy the right tool and life is so very much simpler! Alas, I now own nearly as many watch TOOLS as watches.

One issue...it's a bit difficult to tell if the watch is actually running! The motion of the hand is quite smooth, though!

I keep my finger hovering over the buy button on these... I just can't decide... Black dial or white dial? 'Silver' or Zirconium?
The Zirconium is moving up on me, I'm just concerned it'll be a bit too 'gold' for my taste. But all I mostly have are stainless/silver plated watches, might do me some good to branch out a bit.
May I ask what seller you used?
