OFFICIAL: Tsunami thread.

[Raoul Duke]

I want an MM300 as well. Real bad. Even more than I want a quartz tuna. The Tsunami is the first watch that I've felt there isn't a chance in hell I would ever flip. No matter how close I finally get to the MM300 I will wait over selling the Tsunami. I actually sold everything else including the Monster to prepare for the next. I think if I skip the Tuna and go for the MM300 it may very well be the last watch I ever buy and will be accompanied by my Tsunami.

3 watches i will never get rid of- my 2 Ts and the Monster my wife gave me for our 1st anni 8 yrs ago. if things go to plan- my 2 y/o son will rock 'em all yrs from now

I have a UDT incoming (4 weeks approx!! Can't wait!), and this raises a couple of questions for me, if the thread will allow for them:

- What wrist size does the bracelet fit with all links?
- is loctite recommended only on links removed if you size the watch, or is it recommended for all the links as a precaution?
- Is there a tutorial on process for this? Tried a search (http://forums.watchuseek.com/search....archid=5486982) but couldn't find one.

Thanks guys......will post pics when mine arrives.

ps. Is there a generic Tsunami signature badge? Some cool ones in this thread!

Not sure how large a wrist it will fit. I have a 6.75inch wrist and removed 3 links. I loctited all the link screws because I took apart the bracelet to clean it. You'll be fine just doing the ones you remove. Just put a drop on the threads of the small screw so when you thread it back into the longer piece and tighten it down it will bond. It takes 20mins to bond and 24hrs to fully cure. You can wear it during this time, but I'd wait to take a dip in the pool or more until after it has cured.

My signature is the same as Jake B's. That is the main one everyone uses.

i have an 8.25" wrist and i wear mine with all the links in and the micro set to the furthest inside hole you can use (2 are useless as they're covered by the extension). the LocTite is only needed if you remove a link and need to screw the pin back in, otherwise you should be good to go (i haven't had an issue with my two bracelets)

here's a link to the Tsunami sig sharkfinDave created way back when- CASEBACK ART BY SHARKFIN DAVE - DAGAZ WATCH LTD.

here's the UDT i created not so way back when- CASEBACK ART BY ERIK "RAOUL DUKE" S. - DAGAZ WATCH LTD.

I mean the MM300 is always available, your configuration on the Tsunami, one of a kind, or at least uncommon. I know you made the decision with a heavy heart defendnola.

I have a kid and am 2 months away from closing on the house I am building. I know a large credit card transaction will be in order for the initial purchase of the MM300 so I have to wait anyway. Look forward to being jealous of your new purchase! Hopefully you can make it happen before mine!

I heard it was a good time (in spite of Jake's condition that morning ). Congrats on the new T

Yeah, Jake was feeling under the weather and I had severe jet lag but it was a good time.

I missed your listing for this on the sales forum by about half hour.......bummer. I have been trying to get my hands on a silver sunburst for some time now and you chose every option that I would have except I would have chosen the classic case finish and not satin, but that really wouldn't have mattered to me. Oh well congrats to the lucky son of a gun that will be sporting this piece!!!

Sorry! Normally it is me missing out in the wrong time zone.

Ya and it wasn't easy to do at all. I'm hell bent on a mm300, and without selling all my watches.. and my old laptop.. and my isofrane and blah blah (everything I own).. I won't be able to afford it. If it turns out I don't like the mm300, I'll be back to the forums looking for a Tsunami.. or holding out for the T2. I have problems.

Nugget: sorry bro I wish I had two so I could hook you up!

Thanks man, maybe I'll snag one in the coming weeks that someone decides to flip. I think if I get a silver, my orange will be out the door. The Tsunamis never seem to make it past 2 hours on the sales board before they are scooped up. It is us dive watch guys dirty little secret lol. I am still amazed everyday by my Tsunami. So simple yet so refined, tough, beautiful and comfortable!!!! Good luck on your MM 300 hunt, thats another beauty right there . I have been trying to hold back on purchases for a bit so I can make a big purchase, either a MM300 or an Omega SMPc. I should probably stay off the sales forum

[Raoul Duke]

a bit OT, but you guys lamenting missing out on ones FS should download the WatchRecon app if you've got an Android (YES! something the iPhone guys don't have )

you can setup alerts using keywords and (maybe) never miss out again. i've been averaging 20mins from the OP to my phone on the alerts i have setup

[defendnola]

Also, if you don't have an android, you can setup alerts on ifttt.com.. if you need help figuring it out pm me
