Thanks to feedback and recommendations in this thread, I ended up snagging a pre-owned 1500T off of eBay for around $1350 (incl. taxes/shipping). That seemed like a decent deal based on other prices I've seen for pre-owned 300 and 300T, but what do you think?

I've got it on a Nick Mankey strap for now (squeezed a 22mm between the 21mm lugs), but it came with the...

I've been collecting watches for the past few years, and have about a dozen watches, mostly divers and chronographs (or a mix of both). I'd love to add a Doxa to my collection, and am leaning toward Professional with the classic orange, but really like the Aquamarine colorway as well.

Most of my watches are in the 40-42mm range (7-1/4" wrist), so I'm leaning toward the SUB 300 or 300T. I've also been eyeing the new SUB 250T GMT, but I don't know if I can get past the GMT hand. I prefer...

I recently picked up a pre-owned Nezumi Voiture VM1S (manually wind Sellita SW510 Mb movement).

I have fairly large hands compared to my 7-1/4" wrist, so if I adjust the bracelet large enough to get it over my hand, it's too loose on my wrist, but if I adjust the bracelet to me a snug fit on my wrist, it's really hard to put on and take off.

The bracelet itself is good quality, so I've been searching for an on-the-fly adjustable clasp that I can retrofit to it, but I haven't had any luck...
