Mech / RobCH, Standard buckle not a deployment clasp
you can see the matting already on the strap between the 2nd and third punch hole. I couldn't have worn it more than 2 weeks all added up together. The thread is beginning to ravel ever so slightly too. The buckle angle is not rounded on either side and digs into the strap. Its not that i wear the watch tight, its free to move on my wrist. Guess I'll just be ordering a spare just in case it goes.
Cheers

Moser Monard Platinum Date Addition
I scroll the purists' site every day but I must be "comment adverse". However I thought I'd upload pictures of my new aquistion, as best that I can. I became aware of the brand when I was in browsing in London a couple of years back, I had seen the Mayu a...
the pics on the laptop are full size but when uploaded
get reduced. Will have do some research to find out how I get pics similar to all the rest. thanks
Now for more & larger pics, sorry for poor first post pics
PS, sorry for the hairy wrists, wish i had as much on my head! Cheers Steve ...
Beautiful watch...
Well done ! Tried on a Moser Perpetual in Palladium recently and loved it. But I don't recall the buckle problem...do you have a pic of it ? Even though it's probably in platinum, a tiny bit of filing/anglage may be able to put it right. Did this with a '...
Congratulations on your Monard, Steve
It is one of my favourite watches. Elegant and ingenious at the same time: the large date mechanism is just wonderful and simple. It is the same system as the Perpetual 1, isn't it? Not as complicated as the traditional grand-date complication...but equal...
Exactly, elegant and ingenious. Not sure if the
date mechanism is the same as is in the Perpetual, both look identical but obvosly its a the 3 o'clock. I'm sure someone will know. The date changes with a quick and noticeable click sound too. It can be set to the date by going back or forwards, a nice t...
The photos you posted back in 2009 of the Perpetual
helped me on the way to my decision. The Perpetual was too expensive for me but all of the details I liked were there to be seen on that model too and thanks to the perfect pictures, even better than what I had remebered at the AD. Cheers Steve
Steve, you mentioned the buckle problem?
Do you have a pix of it? Does it come with the depoyant buckle similar to the perpetual 1? Mech.

Ah, okay.
Very easy to file down the edges and smooth them off then, as it's not a complicated clasp. It's a quick job to make it much more comfortable to wear and not as hard on the strap leather. If you were coming to Geneva in the next little while, I'd offer to...
i very much like the Moser pieces........
Steve, imo you have got a superb piece. The colour of the dial looks beautiful.
