shankar_dass93 NATO straps come in various sizes; just need to find the right width for your watch. All Subs have the same lug width; think 22mm straps will fit the Sub.

Apple_DarreN man, that blows. From experience, it is infinitely difficult trying to get FB to respond- whether for troubleshooting, or even reversing incorrect decisions. I am in a similar boat myself with FB, albeit not as serious as your case. Considering FB owns IG, you may have trouble trying to get in touch with the folks behind IG. Good luck, bud.

Kelvw beautiful pics and thank you for sharing. You have captured the brushed finish very well. So well that I actually went in to an AD over the weekend to have a closer look at the Exp2 laugh.gif

My GMT is likely gone tomorrow, so bids one last goodbye:

Looks like they also applied for trademark use of the "Perlon" name.

Most of my office time is spent in front of a few monitors as well. Still - walking to and from the car, driving, going out for lunch... what's on my wrist never loses all its charge...

Actually, don't have to buy watch and wait for the price to go up. You can do that with market sayur also; wait awhile the price also go up. Better buy that instead, since can buy in bulk.

I can never understand why anyone would want to buy a watch as an "investment". If you're looking for an interim watch as you're saving up for your Patek, and the end goal is in 10-15-20 years time, then yeah buy Rolex. If you're looking short term, like in the next 6 months to 1 year, just buy sayur la.

Surprised so many steel models are still available in the UK where you are. I've read that generally a shortage of SS models. Between the three, BLNR because why not? Although that Sub ND looks good too.

The fauxtina really annoys me. Not white, Not yellow. Beige. Glass half full. 5 liner is still too much. Only thing I am ok-ish with are the red Pelagos text and red/black datewheel.

Really surprised that this one found a buyer so soon. If everything goes well, gone later today...

kenji1903 mounted on Rubber B. Reduces the heft and wears more comfortably. But still a damn ding magnet; careful or not, you're sure to run into doors, tables, etc. Surprisingly, Rubber B for DSSD extends out to match the lug width; the strap for GMT2 does not and makes it look a bit weird.

I didn't install the Rubber B myself; I bought the strap prior and after having the bracelet sized, asked my salesperson to swap the bracelet for the strap. Having said that, it is pretty easy to remove the Rubber B strap - just need a pair of slim tweezers.

Honestly, not much left in the bat-drawer le. Haven't been buying and nothing I really want. Plus, I have my Sumo on most of the time.

Everdying I am not... batman laugh.gif I would love a Reverso, but only if it had the classic marker indices. I don't really like the ones with numerals. If I had known earlier, I may have gone with the 1931 Reverso Tribute, but now too late.

TT is easier to pull off in dressy scenarios. Half considering to take it off the chopping board. Over the long new year's weekend, I found a long time grail. Unfortunately, do not think I can liquidate some pieces fast enough, and out of reach for a straight buy.

In the meantime, I have to tell myself the right girl will come along eventually...
