Giving this one an outing as it has not been out of the watch box for a while.

Has anyone ever purchased from Iconic Watches and ever chanced haggling with the stated prices?

Thanking yous

No worries, the little cushions aren't great but for £14 you can't grumble. If you have sub 6.5" wrists and loads of watches with deployant clasps/bracelets you might not get on with it as the cushions aren't very flexible.
Yes, but not much.

Replacement bracelet for the old DJ, as you can see the original had a lot of stretch in it. Will get it sent off for a service, clean and polish soon.

This watch business is getting rather addictive....
New (to me) Russian chronograph next to a Chinese chrono.
Need to get some polish on the plastic crystal and a new strap because that green is ugly af.

My current selection:
I have to be honest, the Seiko never gets a look in. I tend to wear the Tag as my work watch and the Bremont for when I'm out of work. But recently I find the Bremont more on my wrist than not.
I should really sell the Seiko and perhaps the Tag, but I'm not sure I could go through with the sale of them. Each timepiece represents a different part of my life with vivid memories of what I was doing/going through at the time, because of that they have more in value than what they'd be worth by selling. Perhaps I'm just odd.

Any recommendations for decent leather straps sellers? I'm after an 18mm black leather strap with silver buckle for a Longines dress watch.
Thanks

I've used Jack at www.thestrapshop.co.uk for my Longines. Mine has 19mm lugs, but he recommended using 19mm bars and a 20mm leather strap, and it fits perfectly (with a bit of a struggle at first...understandably). Great person to do business with.
The package came yesterday so i could send the sub back, i sent it yesterday and watchfinders received it today and have found the fault and are fixing under the warranty.
The communication with watchfinders has been first class, they emailed and text when the package arrived and have sent numerous emails and texts to whats going on. Fingers crossed i get it back with no problems
Ive ordered straps from http://www.panatime.com/ excellent quality, and delivered in 3 days if you pay for fedex shipping.

Thanks for the responses. Ordered a nicely padded alligator embossed Hirsch Duke from WatchObsession. Looking forward to giving my Grandad's timepiece a bit of daily wear.

Just get a kit off amazon or eBay and do it yourself. My kit cost me a fiver and has been used a half dozen times. Shop wanted more than that for one watch.
