After spending the day being extra careful not to dent the Daytona (I just noticed that 1 of the pins in my gen springbars broke & the springbar popped out of 1 of the lugs -- sometimes new (aftermarket) parts are actually better than the damned vintage part), I am on my way out the door with the beater in search of a burger.

My mother is a hard lady to please -- but even she was impressed. "That's the best strap you ever bought".

Deep inside my Louis Vuitton Cabas Clear Ambre Monogramme Mezzo Tote. :wub:

SATURDAY

That JV strap is hard to top, but I think I did it below. Presenting my new Silix Daytona with silver registers!!

Gorgeous pointy crown guards!

I know it's not as good as Freddy's, Ubi's or By-Tor's, but by golly, for 37 Euro, this PLAYS.

Pretty boring but these 2 are about all I wear anymore. Just waiting for my new insert for the one on the NATO so I can vintage it. These 2 perform so well I just don't want to wear anything else. I do smell a SMP in my future though when I sell my UPO.

Victoria...that Daytona shot looks PERFECT...fit for print!!! The Explorer I on Nato...that's my next watch! :yeah: I've got a different idea about strap choice (my Bond Zulu will go on my Explorer II that's in the mail)...for me, the Explorer I is the only Rolex that looks great with leather, truly a CLASSY piece!!!

A year ago, I wouldn't have understood this.

Today, I smile and nod. ;)

I have two vintage rollies that are fully modded that have supplanted everything else in my collection.

Freddy, I've got to ask you about that helium valve mod some time.

While I wait for my noobmariner LV from TTK, I decided to buy an inferior (wokmariner) rep for $50 from one of the other boards...I like it, it's my first Rolex, and definitely not my last!

Vic great combo but for that amount of money you should have gotten a normal length strap and not open an extra hole on a long one. :D

Nevertheless a beauty and perfect combo with the 113 ;)

I knew you'd say something of the sort. -_-

Almost all my OEMs are 115/95, such as my OEM rubber diver. It took me AGES to find a JV strap of that size -- due to the fact that even the OEM buckles give me a powerful nickel allergy chafing under my wrist. To the side, not so much.

If I'm spending that kind of money, I might as well get one I'll actually use in comfort.

Nevertheless a beauty and perfect combo with the 113 ;)

Thanks.
