Watches - another OCD problem

[Brandrea]

@goosehd lovely 8 day! Gotta love a manual wind watch … nothing better for that bonding experience.

Example of the last time I acted up and the resulting punishment...

I sort of want to get one, just to see how good/bad it is...

@Giles I’m sure you would be good…it states “ALL WATCHES GUARANTEED 100% GENUINE”

[Giles]

Phew - and 99% discount

Sorry I am late to the conversation but his GO is the blue two tone

I have tried it on and Lord how hard it is to give back. @Graeme I love the Bathyscaphe and would love to have one (all except the ceramic).

You guys would laugh me off the forum if I told you what I have my eye on….

[goosehd]

@Anesthetist Don't be shy...we're not judgemental

[Anesthetist]

A Kermit but not what you think….

[Graeme]

@Anesthetist I'm guessing you're after a very green Oris...

[Anesthetist]

Well done Sherlock Graeme

[mclaincausey]

Agreed that Oris is so cool

Seamaster on codora strap and deployant clasp. The strap is originally from the dark side of the moon speedmaster, I’m really enjoying this set up, the whole thing is fairly substantial and I reckon the stap and clasp suit this particular watch. The codura is solid and the red contrast stitching on the inside is a nice detail. I’d prefer if the strap was lined with rubber rather than leather but the leather feels like it’s been treated in some way that it seems rubberised(?) I’m not sure that’s a real thing but it doesn’t feel to be particularly porous, it’s kind of rubbery to touch. In any case it’s very comfortable to wear.

@VoodooRay that’s a nice watch, and the strap really does look good with it.

[VoodooRay]

@IrishHeart Thank you sir. Apart from the bracelet this is the best strap option I've found for this one.

[mclaincausey]

Great setup. I think I prefer to the bracelet.

@VoodooRay your post with the alternative Omega strap got me looking on their website for something to freshen up my battered old X-33 with.

I happened to find what looks like a new Nato-Strap option they are offering in Black denim and Leather.

How could I not post this find on a denim forum?

[Anesthetist]

Oh man that is a great combo, I might need to source one or something similar for my X33

[ddtrash]

That black denim/leather strap works really well with the black dial of the current version of the X33.

My original version has the green grey LCD central display and it may work a bit better with the biosteel beige Nato they make?

Pity my old model is not on their configurator, for the render image I have had to pick the current black dial X33.

That configurator is a lot of fun and quite addictive.

There used to be a blue denim NATO in the Omega collection, it was intended for one of the Railmasters. I don't know if it's still available, but could look good on a Summer Blue...
