    Thanks Bry. Do you still have any contact details of where you had work done in the past? I've done a bit of research online and, apart from Garrick, the only UK processors I've found specialise in...

    That looks really good and is probably something similar to the finish originally on LeJour chronos.

    Thanks. I had looked at their website but I think a minimum of £900+20% vat is a bit rich for a Pasadena. It would make no economic sense.

    DLC / PVD coating, preferably in UK

    I know that this subject has been aired before but the term DLC or PVD is too short for the search function. Also, there may be something more recent that would be helpful.

    Very nice watch but, IMO, that bracelet isn't right for it. I think leather will be hard to beat. Try a Hirsch Heavy Calf to avoid the OEM 'tax'.

    What happens when a student graduates and then emigrates to work outside the UK? Just curious.

    My current Aerospace, the 5th I think, was serviced by Breitling just before I bought it, so maybe 2 years ago. Hopefully it won't have any issues for the foreseeable. If it does I'll be trying STS...

    And yours (previously mine) is also blue, with the discolouration/paint loss extending onto the chapter ring in a similar manner. Really weird.

    I think the bracelet is often the weak link, pun intended, of these Ali-Express watches. At the moment I’m wearing a Steeldive SKX007 homage on a Hirsch Heavy Calf, Breitling spec, strap plus...

    Very nice combination. It’s a strap profile, leather finish and colour that I really like. Do you mind sharing what it is? Thanks.

    I’ve had five of the pre-Evo E79362 in all the colour variations, starting with black and now back with black again. In each case I’ve personally renewed the battery at least once and it’s very...

    I cannot see it happening but if I ever had to reduce to one watch only it would probably be one of my Moonwatches, likely the one with the (original, black) Snoopy dial. It looks really smart on its...

    Absolutely this. I haven't needed numbers on a watch since early primary school and that was a long time ago. I generally hate Arabic dials with a vengeance and this particular one is worse than most.
