First time I've seen the Sandhurst out in the wild on a bracelet... very nice indeed :thumbup:

I could 'almost' bring myself to wearing one in rotation with my Cranwell, even though it's not an RAF watch :problem: :D
Thanks for the compliment.

I've tried wearing the Sandhurst on both straps, mostly NATOs, and the bracelet. Whilst the watch looks good on either, it ends up 'wearing' small on the straps but larger on bracelet. I feel this is due to the visual impression given when on bracelet that it makes the lugs appear longer and therefore the whole watch larger.

This is a necessary evil for me as, with a 7.5" wrist the 38mm is smaller than my norm to wear, as I prefer 42mm - 45mm pieces.

Maybe an alternative solution is to use a Bund strap, as in these photos borrowed from @Jcalder68

Wow, this looks incredible on that Bund :clap:

Been this for a while now, on an Elliot Brown utility strap that I think suits this better than my EB Holton due to the slimmer C60 case.

Now to enjoy a week off work and a few days with just the better half while little one is at nursery!

That's nice, very stealthy. Just curious, how do you get on with your EB mountain rescue? Be good to see that feature in the non CW of the day.

I really like it but it just doesn't get any wrist time. I do keep contemplating moving it on to be honest.

Popular model for discussion in recent days.

Thought I'd give my C65 Sandhurst an outing and, making use of the quick release spring bars, switched it off bracelet and onto a Vintage Oak strap.
