Looks good and suits the watch well. Similar to the distressed strap you get with a new BB

i no longer own a C60, I fell out with it last year. :lol:

The MKII Kingston only came with a black Bezel. The Tudor Black Bay has the Red Bezel. Pics of mine below:

Each of us will face this question at least once in a year.

Great strap and great watch. Two great watches!

I think the MkIIs look good on any strap. Personally I like them on NATOs.

As for the Black Bay... that watch looked OK the first time I saw it, a bit better the second time, and keeps getting better and better....

I've not seen one "in the wild" yet so I'll keep a lookout on the train and tube... great watch spotting potential!
So I wish I was James Bond, just for the day.

If, in the unlikely event that you see one on the way to/from work, your chances of seeing it close up and in detail are probably pretty remote and your chances of buying it are even more remote.

I'd recommend a trip to an AD - that way you can have the added joy of resisting the temptation to buy... or not... :D

Agreed! That's what makes it fun :thumbup: But I work in a sector where top quality watches are often seen, so sometimes the literally come to me. I was in a meeting with a Tag on either side of me and a very nice Seiko diver opposite. Other colleagues choices include a couple of CWs, an Omega Seamaster and a Cartier.

I don't visit ADs for the same reason I don't test drive new cars..... it's not that I don't want to, I just know that it will create desire!

+1, I've never been to an AD either.
