After a bit of delay my Tudor Black Bay Pro arrived. I went with the leather/rubber strap because I got a great deal and I prefer straps. I also wanted to avoid the possibility of the case getting scratched by the bracelet. Many more (and better) photos to come. Lots of wrist presence for a 39mm case!

Downsizing my collection (and watch size). This one is 43mm which I no longer find comfortable. It’s a beautiful watch with a hi beat (36,000 bpm) movement and a cool sapphire bezel. This is a solid and capable dive watch. The bracelet has been sized and all links are included. This watch was purchased from PrestigeTime in January of last year.

The watch and bracelet are in excellent condition with the exception of some scratches on the clasp.

I’m asking $1700 but I will consider…

Seiko Prospex Alpinist GMT Asia LE “Hornbills” (SPB493J1)

When I first saw this one I loved it but I talked myself out of it because I already have a Seiko GMT. Of course, the more I read about this one the more I wanted to grab one while I could. Only 500 have been made and it’s only available in Asia. Luckily for me the internet makes it easy to find and purchase a limited edition like this from the comfort of my living room in Reno, NV.

Everything feels very well made and the bracelet…

I purchased the three textile straps from Nomos and I do like them but I would like to add a leather strap or two. They can’t be too thick and I think black is a bit too formal. Maybe navy? Light or medium brown? Suggestions?
