Oscar ... it's absolutely gorgeous!!!     

 

Mine went thru customs on 12/8, so if your did also, I would think you will get yours today also ...    It says #057/05 on the tag, but on the back of the watch it's actually #053/05.

 

Pictures coming (remember, I'm at work!!!)

Is it really difficult to size a monster bracelet.

I've sized a few other bracelets, but not a monster.

Is it much different???

I decided I would just bring it to my watch guy tomorrow morning.  I took a shot at it tonite, and realized I was too tired to deal with it.  The bracelet is a lot more solid than the other ones I was able to size myself.

I don't want to have to deal with tubes, and screw it up.  I am a total novice at sizing watch bracelets.  I don't even have the correct tools.

Hope you get yours tomorrow Oscar.  Have a great week-end guys.  Hopefully I will have some pics for you on Monday.

Here is the article from PMWF on "How to size a Monster Bracelet".

http://www.pmwf.com/Watches/WatchTools/BraceletSizingTools/AFBraceletSizingToolUse.htm#HOW%20TO%20resize%20the%20SEIKO%20SKX779K/SKX781K%20MONSTER%20bracelet


Actually it looks difficult but when you do it hands on, it is quite easy. The only thing is to be careful with the collar of the pin.

Like Watchrick said, one can do it in a big box.  WhatI myself do is to place a cloth like T-shirt material on the table when I do, so that when the collar jumps, it won't bounce that much. ;)
