Had the Hamilton on all day now and I agree, rubber don’t suit. It is now my only 20mm lug watch and I just don’t any other straps to play around with. Back on the bracelet it goes, Le sigh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Back on the bracelet it goes, Le sigh Might hold on to the Navitimer just a bit longer.....but you can have first dibs if I lose my marbles and decide to give it away I would put the Hamilton on a Khaki or Olive Green ribbed Nato if you want to dress it down a bit.

NATO has never really been my thing Was looking at some gen canvas type straps, $200 fucking dollars mind you. Might just have to settle for a gen buckle Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Might just have to settle for a gen buckle Fair enough, I can't actually argue with you as I have precisely zero watches on Nato myself... $200 for canvas @20mm.......nah, need a plan B !

Mind you that’s $200 Aussie peso’s, but still too much in my book. Thinking a nice leather perhaps with a stitch that matches the lume on the hands would work well too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

When the Seawolf II came out, I wanted it pretty bad but no reps were out yet. We went to a boutique type AD on our honeymoon and I asked if they had any there to try on. The lady from the boutique said no, but she could have one sent straight from Breitling to my house if I wanted. They did have the black and gray dial versions, but not the cobra yellow dial. That's when the wife stepped in with her credit card, I wasn't gonna say no Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FoxWilde 155 Posted January 16, 2019 Not much of a Breitling fan (strictly because thin wrists) but must admit this one is pretty awesome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
