Review on 🌟 Stylish and Refined: Brushed Oyster Stainless Bracelet Seiko – The Perfect Accessory by John Harvieux

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Poor Quality Control - UPDATE -

Didn't fit as one end link was thicker than the other. The second ending came the first time. Bad quality control. Otherwise a beautifully crafted bracelet, smooth without corners and edges. I'm ordering another one though because the others on ebay etc look a little rough. Hope the 2nd works. UPDATE: I got the 2nd one and this time the end links were fine. However, it appears my SKX007 has a slight difference in the machining of the case between the lugs, resulting in the pin not engaging on one end. If you look at the bottom of the watch, there is a small notch where the lug joins the case. One of the lugs was missing a notch, causing the end link to be misaligned. I took out my dremel and carefully made a notch in the body and also sharpened the end link a bit to allow the pin to get closer to the hole. After a couple of hours, the final link was approaching, albeit narrowly. I didn't want to damage the fuselage, but it's in the part covered by the end link, so it's not visible. The end result of the watch strap is fantastic. As said, this group is a step ahead of other oyster groups. It is heavy and very comfortable to wear. When you buy I will carefully inspect each end link and test on both sides to see which one fits best. If your watch has the imperfection I had, you can adjust it with careful sanding, but you need a steady hand and patience.
