Debating if I should take this home today or not!
Yes, but on the bracelet. Always get the bracelet.
Agreed, get the bracelet, then you can always wear it on your own straps.
Precisely. You can always get straps of equal or better quality than the OEM. Not so for the bracelet. Costs a bit more up front, but worth it.
That's my dilemma. I didn't leave the store with it, but I will have it soon. I really like it.

Oh man. Something about these photos make me really like this watch.

I'm a bracelet guy and have to have bracelet but not sure if I could get past the faux rivets.

Get well soon buddy
SO are the chiclets less yellow in the normal light? Looks good in that shot :cheers:

Thanks guys Image

Art, here is a more accurate pic of the lume. It works well with the dial. It’s definitely not a stark contrast like the original but I’m a fan of the color. I may actually prefer it at this point.

Thanks Pat. I forget did they leave the bezel white and just "aged" the dial parts?
Hands, dial, bezel and even the date wheel match. And with the warmth of the ti and red accents it really works together. I was a nay sayer until I went to try out a regular pelagos and left with the LHD. It is as awesome as the regular but had a little funk to make it feel a bit more “special”. It made me eat my words. Great watch Image


Still rocking the polar back on bracelet.Image

The bezel is aged as well. It matches perfectly.

They are a great looking micro. I really like the pale blue color they offer. Different from the standard fare for sureImage

And I regret not buying yours when you sold it. Dumb.
