Q&D wrist shot of the new arrival

How's the bracelet on that, Andy?

I'm considering buying the Turtle re-edition and I'd like to buy it on the bracelet. Trouble is that (other than your Pepsi PADI special) only the blue bezel/blue dial and black/gold bezel and dial versions come on the bracelet. I'd like the black bezel/dial version but it only comes on the Z22 rubber.

Is the bracelet good? If not, I may buy with the Z22 but swap it for a retro diver strap.
The bracelet is fine as far as pin and collar link bracelets go. The Strapcode super oyster also looks to work well from a couple of pics I've seen.

I think that's the first Patek I've truly liked the look of.

Not, I assume, that I can afford it, but what's the model please?

And here is the GMT 2 that goes with it.


I'm really tempted by a bi-metal gmt, love them in pictures but I think I need to try one one. It would have to be black dial/bezel combo like yours.

What's the orange thing it's balanced on? Looks like the front fairing of a mobility scooter.

When this first arrived I thought it was too small, but I've grown to love it and I've been wearing it for the last 3 days, which is unusual for me smile

Is that a Colareb Venezia strap? What colour? I have a mud-coloured Venezia for mine but I think yours is a nicer hue. Tempted to splash out on a Roma though.

It's a tobacco one.

I spotted someone else sporting one on an Alpinist and it looked the perfect shade, so I went with it and I have to say I think it's pretty much ideal.

i've always thought that diving rolex look good on alternative straps. I really like the bracelet though!
