Is that an Omega strap? Lug width is 21mm on mine which precludes me trying a CW orange/black…I think?

No, it's a CW hybrid blue/orange strap. Mine has a lug width of 20mm, which is very helpful for straps. This strap really matches the blue dial and orange accents very nicely, and allows me to stop getting marks on my titanium bracelet!

Pretty sneaky yet lucrative move by Omega on the later watches. I know TAG have been known to do similar. I wonder if a 22mm CW strap would work with a little delicate tinkering. I’m already £170 on that ugly Omega NATO that I’ll never wear with the OP and their leather/rubber black & orange strap is coming in at around £520 so **** that for a game of soldiers…

New to me today, came on the new(ish) Fears bracelet but needs resizing so popped it onto the strap it would have originally come on. The blued hands look lovely in the sunlight (not that we’ve seen much of it in the Midlands today).

Of course, I’ll do that once I get the bracelet resized. It is lovely and in great condition too.

For the first time ever, this guy is getting some major wrist time, to the point where it’s going to knock something else out of the rotation next week.

I put it on because I got my random Panerai urges again. It’s probably the most out of vogue watch I own (52mm watch head, 24mm non-tapering strap). But something about it is really tickling my fancy. It appears busy in photos, but the time is incredibly legible. It’s very heavy, but also somehow very well balanced and contours to my wrist. It’s so beat up by the previous owner that I don’t even give it a second thought if I hit it on something.

This - been a while since I have worn it
