Moonwatch

I picked up this “entry level” 3861 hesalite moonwatch earlier in the year. Must say — this is one of the best values for the money in the business. I’m obviously not the first to make that point, but it bears making again and again. ...
Thanks Nico!

It's a great watch

I love the concept, but

how easy is it for someone like me — who’s never opened a watch case before — to swap them out? I would just go to the Omega boutique and ask them to do it, but I suspect they’d refuse…

When you order the caseback you can get a 3D printer caseback removal tool at the same time. It's extremely easy to do, from 1 to 10 I'd say 2 at most. Worst case any watchmaker can do it for you if you still have doubts.
Well, that would be …

… a first for me! Nice to see you here, my friend!
