Baby Turtle Ideas

Hi All

Just traded a few old watches that I don't really wear for a mint PADI baby turtle with the pepsi insert and blue rubber strap for an absolute STEAL. Almost a straight swap give or take.

I like the classic black sub look so am thinking of swapping the blue rubber strap for a nice original bracelet (maybe like the one on my SUMO with chrome accents).

Not sure what to do about the bezel insert - if I go black it will match the 'wave' black face. But its got the red minute hand and red markers in the chapter ring. Not sure how this will look.

Pretty sure lugs are 20mm
Not sure of the insert.

Help and ideas would be great.

Cheers all.

No ideas about the watch, but for the baby turtles, tie a string to their leg so you can retrieve them when ready.

...and use baby snapping turtles. They can remove colon polyps while they're in there.

I see what you did there!
Why are you using that picture I took of your nan as an avatar?

In fairness, she’s only my Nan by marriage. I do appreciate you taking the photo that day, but it was really great of you to make our video. Thanks again!
