Perfect choice Mark. 8)

Thanks Guys, the biggest thing I have learned on my journey is how important straps are. A well made hand made strap like this one really suits this kind of watch. It really improves the feel and look of the watch.
It would look equally good on your Explorer, I reckon!
Different lug size (explorer 20mm, ranger 22mm). I have however ordered a handmade tan strap for the explorer, just in case I fancy a change.

Personally I think the Explorer should never be detached from its bracelet 8)

I haven't commented on your new arrivals yet, but they are crackers, as in 'good' not 'insane'. :thumbup:

Of all the Tudors I tried on, the Ranger was the closest to being a purchase for me, which I didn't expect.

Anyway, rainy day at Colchester Zoo for me today so this:

Soon to be flipped I feel (along with a few others) because I want to get down to a nice round 12, and I have my eye on something else :silent:

'Panda Eyes' prototype. I've got one on my left wrist and one on my right, but I still can't decide which colour scheme I prefer - when I say 'colour scheme' I really mean 'lack of colour scheme'

...and the other version?

Ha, look at the trident, just like that of the C60(al be it the other way around on the second hand). The day and the date both in circles is an interesting touch. Not a fan of the pushers though.

It's a bit like a horseshoe. Which way up is correct? :)

:lol: indeed. I will say I prefer the way around of the C60, probably the part I like most of that watch.

The day date in circles is very cool. Who needs all that dial space taken up by big blocks.

I agree. A neat and tidy departure from the usual clunky attempts at a day/date window.
