Hi Folks

I am new to watches, just got a Black Monster for Christmas and now find myself hankering for more Seiko wristware.

I also just bought a Marathon TSAR (hope I am allowed to say that on this forum) which I really love especially the Tritium tubes, however the Monster gets about twice as much time on my wrist, it just feels so good.

Anyway I am currently bidding on an SNDA15 Ceasar and would really like to fit a black Maratac with yellow stitching strap to it but cannot find a source in the UK and the only USA dealer I have found does not currently ship to the UK. Does anybody know where these straps can be obtained for Uk delivery?

I am also interested in trying a Seiko Jubilee bracelet and wondered what options I have for sourcing these in the UK.

If the Caesar is half as good as my Monster then I will have an even bigger dilemma on what to put on my wrist every day.

I haven't even got a Caesar yet and I am already started thinking about an SKX007, is this illness curable lol :)

See if you can get a hold of the Jubilee before you buy one. I have one and personally think it is far too flimsy feeling on a heavier watch. I shaved down the sides to fit an awkward 21mm Citizen Eco drive that is much lighter. I still don't like the Jubilee that much, but it serves its purpose for now.

Short of asking friends and family or looking in local jewellers I am not sure how I could get hold of one. They dont look too expensive and thought that if I didnt like it then I could sell it and get something back.

I have this desire to get an SKX007 and put it on a Jubilee as I was inspired by some photos I saw on the forum.

I will let you know how I get on.

You can get the Maratacs on ebay, but Westcoasttime will also sell them to you directly. For Jubilees, they aren't universally loved, so your best bet is a WantToBuy on the forums, most experienced members will ship to the UK.
