Decided I need to wear more watches in rotation as I have got into the habit of simply wearing one all the time.

Omega today.....

Got the 16800 out for an airing today. I don’t wear it much but when I do, it just does it

Nice 1521 - I have a blue one that recently gained a mesh bracelet. Also have black and orange Squale rubber straps in rotation.

I really fancy a squale but the lack of a really nice bracelet does put me off . These pics do make me check them out again though

Me too. But having called and emaioed Page and Cooper at least five times over a two yea period and not receiving a single response, I decided not to bother.

ETA: just Googled them, and it seems they've gone bust.

I'm not surprised.

The Squalematic design was beautiful, a brilliant summer watch. It was just a bit big for my tastes with no bracelet.

The VMs were lovely, but ultimately a bit precious for what I wanted in the end. Glad I had them though. The blue was amazing.

Now available at Watchgecko. Seems they've picked up a few of the P&C brands.

Good to know, thanks. I buy a lot of straps from Watch Gecko, but never look at the watches, because I've not seen a Geckota that I like, so I didn't know they have other brands too.

Really nice to see everyone's Squales!

I sourced mine through Neil at Chronomaster - he was a gentleman and I would very much recommend him for anyone in the market. An official distributor list for the UK can be found on the Squale site - https://www.squale.ch/en/store_locator

I've bought a Zuludiver 400 MK2 strap in black from WatchGecko - https://www.watchgecko.com/zuludiver-400-italian-r...
Received it today, seems to be a high quality item, looking forward to seeing how it wears as an alternative to the bracelet.

Where did you get it if you don't mind my asking? No official dealers in the UK?

This was another Page and Cooper purchase, and there's sadly no UK distributor now they've wound up.

Definitely worth seeking out if you like the aesthetic. It's a fantastic watch.
