    Were you able to size the bracelet properly? My jeweler was only able to remove two links (pin and collar style) but said that all the other links are non-removable. It's so loose!

    • @OldLineWatches

      Yes, I don’t remember how many links I removed but I think it was three. My wrist is about 6 3/4” for reference

      @@OldLineWatches That's so odd. My wrist is 6.5 inches but my jeweler was only able to remove two links and with the tightest micro adjustment, it's still very loose. He said two was all it could do.

      @@purojalisco90 I checked mine and it was only two links removed and I’m on the loosest microadjust. It might take some looking to find someone with the skills and tools, but you definitely can drill an additional microadjust hole in the clasp. It’s just a very precise operation.

    Not "overly familiar," w/ the "Super Sea Wolf," but this is the first iteration, that I can remember seeing, on a "3-link," or w/ the steel bezel insert. The insert, as well as, the sides of the case, looked to be "bead-blasted," if I'm not mistaken. Looking forward to the review of this one. I like that you take a moment to allow for in-depth view, of the over-all build. Some people spend 8 minutes showing off all of the packaging, and unwrapping (which, I know that some people dig.....not me), spend 30 seconds turning the watch over, and that's it. I much prefer your approach. Thanks for sharing this

      If I’m unboxing off camera, I spend even less time on packaging unless there’s something really special about it. The Wolbrook X-15 comes to mind as one that has cool packaging that’s worth dwelling on a little bit

    Looks great, even the clasp on the bracelet.

      It's really "all you need, nothing you don't" isn't it?

      I really enjoy when small thoughtful touches like that are added. They didn’t need to do that - they just wanted to because it was gonna look cool.

    Very nice Zodiac Super Sea Wolf! Makes me think I should get a bracelet for mine (bought it on a rubber strap).

      I threw this right on a tropic lol. The bracelet looks super comfy but it’s pin and collar which means I’m going procrastinate fitting it for a few weeks 😜

    Solid piece! I love that seconds hand.
    The watch is similar to the Eterna Kon tiki

      Is it just me, or does the ladies kontiki models look better than the mens?
