I really like the "which combo for today" thread over at RWI...lot's of eyecandy and very good to think about new straps, new combos
So I thought it's no bad idea to have such a thread "at home" too
Today I choose my 243 on grey Wildebeest from PhillyRock because it's a pretty grey day here in Germany
Well...my first experience with these cyclops (was with my 087) was like...meh...
But I learned that that's the way they are and that they are great under water.
Makes somehow sense since it's a diver but on the other hand...would it be ever necessary to read the date under water??

Well...as far as I know that's exactly where the leather for these exotic straps (have two wildebeest too) comes from.
It helps the animal parks to survive...

As most of you know I've been a sick flipper the past years.
It seems to me that this "phase" is over now...
My collection contains 9 reps now from which 5 are with since more than 6 months now...feels like I really made it
Therefore I'd like to share the pics I made just now from my latest purchase...
A very nice 243 on a rockin Elephant hide strap from PhillyRock...
I already ordered swiss 7750 for my Panerais and try to source a swiss 7753 as well as a gen dial for my 187.
Since reliability always was my biggest concern it was a good idea to have all my reps with swiss movements.
No problems since and I doubt there will be some in the near future. And I bet this is one of the reasons why I don't sell them. I won't get back what I invested so I keep'em
