Any good high street watch or jeweller store,or the the many various on-line outlets.Quality don't vary much in price, Eddie Platts at time factors is one of the good guys to deal with and outstanding quality for the price.

Would agree Mike myself and Eddie go back a long way, have owed all of Eddies own designed mechanical watches from Speedbird 1 to the Dreadnought. A remarkable very high spec watch for the the price then,but now have appreciated in price.And have bought a few oddball vintage watches from him.

Tim, if I may hijack your thread...

Does anyone have a suggestion for custom leather/exotic bands? Not so worried about the material but I'm looking for a special color. Most everything I find is black/brown. Thanks for any help!

You could try many of the Hirsch bands excellent quality and good value for money.
