Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military (OVM)
When it's in front of me. It doesn't really appeal to me. But when I missed the boat I think about it. But not that much anymore.

Not sure about a mid-year LE cos steinharts released quite a few LE's last year. And also, they seem to be busy fulfilling orders of the models with the new ST1 movements. They appear to have oversold.



I caught a glimsp of a new steinhart model. Well maybe a new variant of an existing model is a better way of putting it. But not that keen on it.
Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military (OVM)
The ST1 movements looks swee swee.... gotta find more information on it.



Any idea how it runs? Is this a new movement or something been around for a while?

Bro, you reckon another LE man variant? Rally straps.
Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military (OVM)

Since they had released Gran Prix, LeMANS, i wouldn't be surprise that base on the color of the straps... something linked to muddy, dusty RALLIES.

But dunno whether will it going to be Chrono or not...
Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military (OVM)
this is a very bad timing to return to the watch scene and be poisoned by the ovm. everywhere oos and even pre-owned also no one selling. :shock:

I personally find OVMs hard to find. If it on the secondary market, the price will not differ from a new piece by much. For a new piece, one must wait for quite a few months.



I got my piece a year ago and I was lucky enough to wait for just a month or so.
Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military (OVM)
ok so i pre-order an OVM. Might do some mods to it, like replacing the sapphire with a plexi/acrylic dome crystal. Quite concerned about the water-resistance after the change though.



Was thinking of installing fixed lug bars. Not sure how i am going to proceed with this..



Aiming to achieve a look as close to the original as possible.
Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military (OVM)
dig up old thread...anyone here has one OVM to flip?
Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military (OVM)
just order from steinhart website as oos at gnomon.

wanted the ocean gmt but not impressed with it. so ordered the ovm.



will kanna gst and fedex admin charges?

Previously I too ordered my OVM directly from String Aryans I worried the same thing.. But in the end I didn't get charged GST. However it may just be lucky situation...
Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military (OVM)
As long as total declared value, including shipping charges is above SGD 400, will kena GST



Normally Fedex will prepay and send you an invoice in a couple of day.
Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military (OVM)
Thanks for the replies. haha hoping for the best...
Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military (OVM)
Got mine at gnomon last month.Last piece at the shop. Now waiting for Ocean black dlc.Steinhart website already selling but I rather buy locally.

Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military (OVM)
Great piece to own. I am still enjoying mine 2 years down.

I spend nearly an hr trying to size the bracelet and still can't get the screws turned! Anyone has the same problem?
Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military (OVM)
Careful here, don't "botak" the screw. R u loosening or tightening here?
Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military (OVM)
Loosen the screw. I couldn't turn it abit at all.
Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military (OVM)

"rojakman"

Loosen the screw. I couldn't turn it abit at all.

Try this way... instead of straight away screw in, turn your jewel screw driver in anti-clockwise direction slowly, and feel if there's somekind like a "jump" or "click" with your sensitivity, when it does, the screw thread and the tapped hole is align oredi, slowly turn in. See whether it screws better or not.

Do check that the tapped hole in the bracelet link is not blocked by foreign object, or, not damaged because of your first few tries of screw in of the holding pins.

Are you really sure its a screw?



If it has a very fine minus that looks like a minus screw head.



Its actually a pin. When fully pushed into the links. It looks like a minus screw.



Be sure. Safe to go k2. He can do. U pay a small fee n learn the way as well.

Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military (OVM)
Steinhart has been very kind and offered to replace the bracelet. Prior to shipping the bracelet, they will check that the screws are ok.
Re: Steinhart Ocean Vintage Military (OVM)
Just to check, the prices on Gnomon website will be the final price to pay or got further discount?

Remember to add gst.

From experience shop price may be even higher or no difference . I will suggest dropping an email to enquire.
