I love my moonswatch, my family bought my Dad one for his 60th, as he's always wanted a speedmaster. Parents bought mine for my 31st to match.
What watch do you wear?

After 5 years picked up the one on the right - one on the left is a 1926 edition owned by James Dowling (Mr Rolex on IG) - one on right is Daytona on Oysterflex Everose
The hands on that cushion cased one are delightful

Got a bit bored with my Steinhart Ocean 1 so dug out this one I got years ago off Kickstarter of all places for a bit of wrist time.
Miyota 9015 automatic
50m water resistence
10.5mm case thickness
Getting butterfly clasp leather strap for it to test. The strap it comes with isn’t the greatest.

Changed out the original green rubber on my Seamster for an aftermarket Sailcloth (effect) strap from Artem with the deployant clasp.
How much is that strap + clasp comes to total?
On the site it looks like about £245.
Strap is 177 + 68 for clasp...
Would actually consider paying it if they were big enough to fit my wrist... 8 inches isn't that out of ordinary is it...

That cost more than the Seiko I want to put it on! Might have to look at cheaper alternatives.
8 inches. Whoah! That would make a James Cameron look small.

Seiko SNK795 
nice little watch (I don't have big wrists) and inexpensive. Goes nicely with everything, with a leather strap. The only thing I wish it had was hacking seconds hand.

Does anyone have a watch box for about 6 watches with a little compartment for straps and rings?
Just checked one of the boxes I have and it was only a 6 compartment box but no compartment for straps or rings. I was sure I picked it up in the middle of Lidl or Aldi a few months back. So not quite fitting the bill.

Tempting but the build quality (fake leather) i want to avoid. If it were wood with a metal hinge.

Thanks! I found this one but way more expensive. Under £20 is perfect. Now I got to fill it lol I only have like 6 watches so far.

I don't want 12....that will empty my bank account filling that ! I have a new watch arriving this week but plan to get something at the end of the year, like a 38mm Murph at the end of the year. The 42mm is enormous!

Have some ambition, I'm sure if you put your mind to it you can fill a 12 slot box!
