TeeJay Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 DRSD on two-piece nylon After such an awesome photo, I had to make an homage shot of my own
ubiquitous Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 I've got some Maratac's for a couple of watches... Usually just do the steel and leather option though... The heat here in Denver is pretty dry, so it's a little more bearable...

ubiquitous Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 TeeJay- The case on that one measures about 42mm w/o crown; lugs are 22mm. It wears fairly true to size with the big bezel and all. Here's a comparison with a 40mm Sub case:

Here's a comparison with a 40mm Sub case: Ahh, so a bit larger, but not Planet Ocean size The bezel is certainly striking, it's a really nice watch Thanks for the comparison shots, it puts the size in perspective nicely
nikki6 Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 Scottish summer is what pretty much always keeps me cool!! Was 15 degrees the other day, man there were people wandering the streets with heatstroke and sunburnt noses!! I'm wearing my Oakley Crankcase, the Unobtanium in the SS braclet helps keep it cool!! Sixx
dluddy Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 @Duddy.. Nice.. summer colours !! Your lucky ... does boston get hot ? or is it always coooool ?? No, it gets hot and muggy in the northeast. I usually wear rubber of steel during the day and save my leather straps for the cooler evenings....unless they are Kodiak treated waterproof straps. Haven't gotten into the G10 or Nato straps yeat although I just got the new RAF Bond strap I'll give a try this summer on my no-date
AMK000 Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 Some Panerai summer looks: My fetish watch. One day I will get one of these
TeeJay Posted June 5, 2009 Report Posted June 5, 2009 Awesome selection, bro Out of curiousity, how do you find the Zulu straps comfort-wise compared to the NATO ones? I really like the look of them, but they look like the loops would 'flap about' during wear
