Is there enough text on the dial? Werenbach - watches built from space rockets.

Here’s a better picture.

It’s excellent, the lume is insane as it also includes the bezel too.
the only couple of complaints is a minor one which is the bracelet have a polished middle link, and the blue AR coating look a bit weird on a sub homage, Steinhart is much more subtle.

The turning bezel is horrendously stiff, probably just a fault with mine and I don’t really care about it as it’s just £99.

AliExpress rubber strap for my Black Bay turned up. Seems OK for the price but will have to see what comfort is like after extended wearing. Surprisingly not that difficult to fit. It's branded Tudor but I think someone may be telling porkies there given it cost about a tenner (the clasp is the proper one from the leather strap).

Looks ok...noticeably less "crisp" in the mold line details than the RubberB but you'd hope so with the price difference. How soft is it? The RubberB is super flexible but somehow doesn't feel that soft.

Great for the money 👍 mines a bit different I think, no buckle holes so I put on my sea dweller deployant. Has some kind of stiffner up where the SELs go but flexible further down.

They look great.. I saw those on Instagram.. not overly dear too. He was selling the one on the right for £420 on ebay..

Nice one!

Not particularly soft or flexible but I'm not sure how much is down to the material and how much down to being new, it does seem to have softened up slightly whilst wearing it today.

As I said, also has "Tudor" branding:

(It also seems that the T800 product code is the one for a Rubber B ...)

Bit cheaper if you go to him direct. He's very communicative on Instagram

It looks like a good fit to the case too

Yep, impressive for the price.

This one in case anyone is interested

I asked and he can do a chapter ring with minute markers, just in case anyone cares. Mine should arrive in 3-4 weeks. It will be a hybrid between these two.

Yesterday At 2.30
It arrived this am .. I’m opened it ( she won’t order on the net anymore since she had her identity cloned)to put on the rubber strap for her .
I have to say for £99 it’s amazing .

nice!

I know this isn't an expensive watch in present company but I finally paid off my student loan yesterday so wanted to have something to keep for a long time to commemorate the occasion as it all felt a bit anticlimactic.

congrats! can't wait to pay mine off; would see it as a great pay rise when i get rid of it

how much did it set you back (watch not degree!)

for £99 it’s amazing

That’s mad. More photos please.
