Thanks, Matt!
FedEx truck left a package a little while ago.
Working outside cutting up branches, but forced myself to open the package to try the watch on and take some quick shots.
The brushed center links are a perfect match to the rest of the bracelet and the watch hits the sweet spot size-wise...
despite the actual dimension of the case - it works great for me.
Hoping to get better pictures over the next few days, but there sure are plenty of pictures out there of the watch...
just not many with a great brushed bracelet.
Unfortunately, I will have to put the watch in the box and get back to work, but not before I take
a moment to thank Matt for his continued willingness to entertain my crazy trade options.
As always, he is a delight to work.
Thank you, Matt.

Uh, oh, just saw this on The Rolex Forum...
Makes a guy think of the options.

Not bad. But IMO, and I know many don't agree, a Rolex sports watch always looks best on the Oyster bracelet. For me, it's almost half the appeal of the watch.mattcantwin wrote:Uh, oh, just saw this on The Rolex Forum...

I agree with this, particularly for the more modern Rollies with gloss dials. The older matte dial versions do look pretty cool on Natos, though.unixshrk wrote:Bracelet bracelet braceletdukerules wrote:Not bad.

Also, I think the GMT looks far better without the PCL's. I can see the PCL's on a datejust or Daytona, which are both a bit more "dressy," but not on this one.

Thanks, I needed that.
Re: Thanks, Matt!
Exactly. My Oyster preference is for the new ones, especially the ceramics. Vintage, and even 5-digit versions, work great on leather and NATO. Except for the DSSD, that works best for me on RubberB.JBZ wrote:I agree with this, particularly for the more modern Rollies with gloss dials.

On the other hand, not everything I see on The Rolex Forum "interests" me.

The shame of it is, price-wise, this is probably in Richard Mille territory.mattcantwin wrote:On the other hand, not everything I see on The Rolex Forum "interests" me.
