Further to my post above, and in the interest of fairness, I should clarify my perspective. I found Chealwatch (a good few years ago now) online as they were competitively priced for servicing. As described above, my experience was disappointing, but to be clear it was a single experience, and the watch I sent to them was certainly not great. Maybe it was beyond help. Prior to reading the post here today I had no idea as to Chealwatch's wider reputation, and to be honest it is not of great interest to me. I stand by my perspective with regards my own customer experience, but other than that I have no opinion. Sent from my SM-G892U using Tapatalk

I once sent a fairly cheap vintage watch to Chealwatch. It took forever to get back, communication was poor, and when I finally got the watch back it was not serviced and in just as bad condition as when I sent it off. I personally wouldn't use this person ever again. Not a good vibe. Sent from my SM-G892U using Tapatalk

Maurice Lacroix Les classiques day-date. Quartz dress watch - makes a nice change to mechanical dress imho. Slimmer too My dog in the background - absolutely uninterested in the watch. Expecting a walk! Sent from my SM-G892U using Tapatalk

Hello chaps, Having not had any time due to work to post or otherwise keep up with the forum I find myself, as we all are, on lockdown and trying to the best I can for my family, the wider community, and the whole country! As Boris rightly said, we are all enlisted in this battle. Anyway, since last being here I have bought a few more watches, so will share with the group over the coming days. I look forward to hearing what you think, good and bad, of my additions.

Hi Jeff. Welcome to the forum buddy. I am here again after not being around for quite a while due to work. Now, this thing that's happening means I can reconnect with this excellent and friendly forum. As a life-long hip hop fan your username resonates!

I'd want an alligator on such a refined piece. Contrast stitching is not my thing, but I can add no logic for such a preference. It's absolutely a personal choice. So for me, a black or blue alligator sir! Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

New to me this week. Feeling the bling of my first gold (plated) watch. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

WHile we're on the subject of leather watch straps, has anyone here found their new strap to be squeaky? My new alligator strap appears to be squeaking when it rubs against the lugs. A first for me, lol.

I've never been to White Hart Lane. I've been to Three Point Lane a fair few times over the years though The new stadium is absolutely breath-taking imho

Lol, indeed. Appreciate you bringing the thread back on topic. I guess it's the padding rather than the leather that's causing the issue. I'll continue flexing on both straps as aside from their unwillingness to conform to my wrist shape they're both rather nice. On one, however, even the unpadded end is quite stiff, so maybe a leather nourishing/softening product might help, even if only marginally.
