This is a modded Rep 16610 Silix style case if you ask me. The way it is converted to bi-directional is to grind the teeth off and remove the click components.
This looks like it should use the wire tension system that clips into the bezel, and rides in a grovve in the case. This is not a regular tension ring setup.
My guess is a former owner had problems with the wire system, and just glued it.
In theory, if you had the wire, you could make it right.
Sounds like your "Paul" Sub has a .26 fourth wheel from a 2804/Variance instead of the standard .25.
Quote from Ofrei: "...while I've seen different listings for the sweep 0.25 mm or 0.26 mm..."
Just a thought.
Surprisingly, there is not a single good 14060 Rep in existence. You would think they would be no-brainer easy without date wheel, etc. Problem is the GEN 14060 has slightly different dimensions. The few reps are based on 16610's, and most do not have lug holes (which all 14060's have).
5513 MBW's are good start.
This sounds like a "salesman" trying to MOVE their oversize watches that no one is buying. Sort of the opposite response to GQ/Esquire.
In my opinion, if a magazine has men in the title; menshealth, askmen, mensfitness, mensjournal -- run away... Too much bubble-gum psychology, fitness/style fad of the month driven by their sponsors.
Yes, with chest straps, and the Garmin runs an encrypted or private channel. No interference with other units that may be near you. The Garmin works fine indoors once you tell it you are indoors, but it defaults to searching for satellites to track your speed and distance. The Garmin might be overkill if you don't run/cycle or get outdoors much.
I run and cycle with a Garmin Forerunner 305, and love it. It is older now, and larger, but the large size is easy on the eyes when moving fast. Only downside is if you just want the HRM (Indoors), it is pesky about wanting to find satellites.
