MidWeek Wrist Check

Beauties Ubi. Didn't you get the SuperOcean too? How do you like it so far?

Thank you, BT :) I am absolutely loving these Jumbos! My first purchases in quite some time, and I'm finding my interest in watches starting to resurface (which is good, but maybe not so good on the bank account :lol:).

The SFSO is indeed an interesting piece! A bit big for me... It seems to feel a little clumsy on my wrist (which is a bit narrow) so it tends to flop about a bit; as such, it's not worn too often. But there's no doubt that it's a fantastic piece!

Looking forward to those pics!! Which dial color did you procure?

The usual black dial. I'm so predictable. It is gorgeous.

Ubi, you were right in respects to the gold screws. They are very subtle in appearance. Looks very understated & elegant.

What an extraordinary rep.

If they keep making reps like this, I'm going to be broke :rolleyes:

Cheers

Yep. I really like AP's as well. Too bad the gens are so expensive. So wearing a rep like that would be a bit too much for an average guy like me.

About the Steelfish... yes, it's a big watch. I've always said that these bulky watches don't go well with smaller wrists. Some don't mind though. You could try it with a rubber strap... it could balance the size nicely.

Gave the rubber strap a try... On the last hole it's still a bit loose. A little less clumsy as the rubber helps provide some grip with my skin, but I just wish it were a tad bit tighter.

Oh, and my wife was giving me greif about the big 'BREI-TLING' script going across the top of the strap... :black_eye: She told me to stick to the Daytonas...

New dress for my SFSO. I love leather as much as SS on this one. It's definitely one of if not my favorite rep.

I know this combination is very common, but well, it's just perfect, so why take any risk with a strange strap ?

It's not a Hublot or a CD... It cost 168 dollars... Isn't that an obvious proof that superreps are possible under 200 ?! (sorry, I'm not trolling...)

very nice watches guys :)

I was wearing today my long time beloved 111h from trusty, this watch has been my daily beater for more than a year, I had no other watches then. Its self modded and I still love it but since I got a 42mm PO lately I found pam bracelet less comfortable than one attached to my PO. So I guess it must go oto the box since its summer here and leather straps dont work well with my sweaty wrist :lol:

Heres a brand new pic I took a couple of minutes ago, cheers
