elp 26 Posted April 26, 2015 Off to see The Avengers: Age of Ultron with my boy .... That looks nice! Have you tried it on mesh? Unfortunately..IMO.....mesh doesn't look good on non-hooded lugs...with the possible exception of that Breitling thingy ! Hooded lug..... Tried to find a pic of it but no luck. Saw about a year ago ELP's watch on a mesh strap for sale at RWI and to me it looked awesome, did not pay attention to how it looked right by the lugs though. I agree with Baldrick - I do not think a mesh looks as good with open lugs; I tried it on the Graham, and it still isn't my favourite look: Baldrick - funny enough I got the mesh for the PloProf, but most of the time I keep it on Nato as I use it for swimming & kayaking (and a couple times diving), and a Nato is more secure (if one springbar pops, the other one can still hold the watch on the wrist). Tried this in the pool today: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

elp 26 Posted April 26, 2015 Yeah, does not look good in your pic...must have been a good photographer then No argument there If you have a watch to sell it's worth getting Gazzla or Baldrick to take a picture of it - would easily fetch full asking price then!

nuttcrac69 2 Posted April 26, 2015 Awesome! Have to get one of these someday. Tried on the gen at an AD in Cape Town. Blew me away. At least I got a catalogue out of it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KarmaToBurn 1,419 Posted April 26, 2015 Very nice! I am on the lookout for a JJ modded 1675, but they are impossible to find! Thanks mate. Mine's just a 21j cheapy that I bleached the bezel on. I would also love a higher quality modded version but this one will do for now. :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
