I thought I'd throw this out there for anyone considering the Turquoise AT. Here are some pics of it on a rubber strap (Hirsch Accent) and its OEM bracelet so that you can get an idea of how it looks in either configuration. On the wrist, it's a lot more subtle than turquoise should be. I think it's the well-done shading (which seems to appear/disappear in certain lighting conditions) along the outside of the dial. The shading and PVD hands/indices make it a nice match for a black strap...

I had a couple of Aqua Terras that weren’t getting as much use as they should have. They’re now gone, and this one took their place. I just got it, and holy crap – this thing looks amazing. I couldn’t wait to get it on my wrist, so I slapped this Hirsch Accent on it. The bracelet’s on my desk waiting to be sized.

Omega knocked it out of the park with this one. The dial really pops, but it’s not overly attention-seeking. The fade into a darker color on the outer edges that’s accented by the…

How is this possible? It’s the middle of April and @Russ1965 already has over 2000 replies this month. Do you do special thumb exercises at the gym, Russ? I bow down before the WUS king. @BundyBear and @Betterthere had best get busy.

Brown's not the most common color for the dial of a watch. Perhaps seeing examples of brown-dialed watches and strap/bracelet pairings may help others find something they're interested in or otherwise help with ideas. I never really thought a...

Not typically my thing, but I thought some of you may enjoy this. I’ll admit that some of them are pretty neat.

I stopped in one of my local stores (retail chain) the other day to see if they had anything I had to have (They didn't). They carry TAG, Longines, Hamilton, B et M, FC, Bremont, Oris, Citizen, G-Shock, and a couple of others. They had a Citizen Legend Diver on sale marked 30% off. I really wasn't interested in buying it, but I tried it on. As I was talking to the SA, he informed me that this watch was extremely accurate. Okay, maybe a relative term...relative to what? I let it go.
