Well...is symmetry that important in the end. That GO is a thing of total beauty. If I had that on my wrist I'd be walking in to things...lots of things!

It's a BB58 Chuck so they only come in black/black or blue/blue (which mine is). You can get the BB Heritage 41mm in black dial/blue bezel though.

As sad as it sounds, I had it like that for an hour or so before and after the photo until I switched to my C65.
Something to put a smile on my face.

I've been wearing it on Perlons quite often, so I don't see the movement when winding it unless I take the strap off each time.
Will have to be careful though, those lugs could have someone's eye out.

N.B. I would never step foot out the front door with it like that :D

This is the original strap, I've not managed to find any aftermarket ones due to the shape.

Married on Valentines Day, very romantic! Happy anniversary :)
Saves us buying Valentine's stuff but difficult to buy anything nice as all the prices get hiked!

I thought so...I know that the 41mm version(blue bezel/black dial) is also a little thicker & has a different inhouse movement...if I like both(your BB58) & the Heritage, & aside from the differences mentioned above, is one more preferable than the other?.. :problem:

I think the main difference apart from the obvious dimensions are the colour combinations where you can get a black dial with blue, red or green (Harrods) options in the Heritage.
