Not usually a bracelet guy, but the Oceaneer feels right
Most times I usually put the bracelet aside when I get a watch (there are exceptions) and the Oceaneer was the same. Having had the watch 3 yrs now and only once maybe twice early on did I mount the bracelet on it for short times. Last week I was bored with another rainy day here and changing up some straps on pieces I once again mounted the bracelet back on it.
Bam, right away it felt & looked right, and after a week I like how it rides even better. Another rainy day here in jet city so lots of time for pics.
It was camped out on the shark forever, no better combo.

I usually do the same with the bracelets as I prefer straps. My U1000 is the only watch I really love on the bracelet. The Korsbek looks pretty good though and it is nice to have some options. Did you ever come up with a solution for the caseback flaking?

Bad-ass PVD. Looks good on the bracelet.

Poul offered to send it in and take care of it on the house, what a great guy. But I elected to just polish it out on my own. Looks just fine and affects the appearance none. I have had many pvd-dlc watches over the years and can`t think of one that didn`t have just a steel back on them.CGSshorty wrote:I usually do the same with the bracelets as I prefer straps.

Poul is top shelf. I've had a few Korsbek watches and think they are a for the most part a bracelet watch. Its a wristfull no doubt. The Hirsch strap worked well-but then again thats a heavy duty rubber strap. Great piece bud.

This is one watch where the five link bracelet fits the rest of the design of the watch.

That watch is a lot like the Seal in that it looks sweet on the five link AND it looks sweet on just about any cool looking strap.
It does ROCK on that bracelet.
I've been wanting to put the links back on my Seal... it's coming soon after seeing this.
