^ Wow! That's sharp.

 

Thanks! I have the rubber strap on order - eagerly awaiting the arrival.

^ been loving FC in magazine ads, don't see them in real (or here) often

very good start! looks incredible

 

moabite, beautiful IWC! i was really interested in that particular IWC last time at tourneau and im so tempted to trade in my carrera for it

 

Yeah, had a vintage gold doublé Seamaster 600 (from the 70's, don't remember), but I sold it after one day (with some profit, haha). Couldn't wear it due to size, it was 34 mm and thats too small imho. Try to find a 36 mm+. If I was going for a dress watch in that price range today, I would go for a newer Tissot Visodate, or maybe a Davosa or something like that. GL with the search.

Why the leather strap on the seiko? Good looking watch, but you should go with Orange Zulu!

 

Thank you! I looked at a number of watches before picking this one up - Carrera included. The Aquatimer is definitely on the sportier side but can be dressed up easily with the bracelet instead of the rubber strap. It's just fantastic - I'll be wearing this one for awhile!

 

Put a swimsuit on my new AP Royal Oak chrono, needless to say I love it. I know it sounds cliché but pics really don't do justice.

so much win!
did you have to change anything with the lugs, or any other part for that matter?
or the rubber strap was the only thing needed for this transformation?

enjoy

 

Awesome Hamp.

Thanks for the new iPhone wallpaper too. Been looking for a good royal oak photo, sick of the offshore photo I got.
