Watches - another OCD problem

Equus do a tobacco suede that's a bit lighter, but I don't think that it's the exact hue you're looking for.
I'd look for someone doing custom natural Chromexcel straps, and ask them to make one that uses the rough out side of the leather. The reverse side on this NATO by Crown & Buckle looks like it might be a decent approximation.

I've been an avid watch collector for many years, but it's time to let a few go as I’m helping my wife launch her company. I am selling my mint Red Bezel Tudor Black Bay Reference 79220R. The Black Bay features a 41mm case and 200m of water resistance with unidirectional dial.
If you have any questions drop me a PM.

There's a hands on with the Blancpain Fifty Fathoms Mil-Spec at aBlogToWatch.

116610LV or simply known as the Hulk.
The best detail (for me) about this watch is the dial, and how it can shift in colour from a brilliant green to black depending on the light and angle.
@Tempvs Did you ever hang around at Paneristi? Used to have many of those tuna cans, but I now just have the two. I do wish I'd have kept my 237, but I was paid handsomely for it. Wonderful collection.

^ It's a great watch!
There's also the Kermit or 16610LV. It has a black dial with a non-ceramic green bezel. It is also very nice.

Hodinkee released a collaboration with Ressence earlier today. It's sold out, so if you want one (and can afford the $22,500 price tag), tough!
The watch is a skeletonised Type 1, with a steel case, rather than the standard titanium. This video shows how the time is displayed, which I love.
There are quite a few comments on the site that Hodinkee are selling out to the industry, but I suspect that they did so a long while back. Someone pointed out that the major watch blogs tend to carry minimal advertising, so someone is paying for the editorial team. So take what they post with a pinch of salt.

That is very cool. If I had the cash to spare, I'd be willing to blow it on one of those.

How about something cheaper @Giles?
Seiko Prospex Diver SLA017 reissue, which should retail for €3800. It's a limited edition, with a movement based off the Grand Seiko line, and possibly sold out already.
Details from Monochrome's review. Hodinkee have an announcement, which also includes the modern version of the watch.

yeah. the ceremic is 116610LV. the additional 1 in front stands for ceremic. otherwise the single 1 is the kermit. the ceremic green bezel and dial is called the hulk whereas the green bezel and black dial is kermit.

I believe the Sea Dweller is my favourite watch. Although the JLC Tribute to Deep Sea is close.

@QuantumMechanic nice collection there sir!
I have had my eye on a panerai for quite sometime….the 1950 flyback models really peak my interest. However, it's a very hefty price tag.
