Remember seeing another member whom did this as soon as the blnr was released. I was drooling puddles. Yours looks equally great.

Thanks for all the nice replies!

Before I left while stuck in limbo I fitted one of my many nato straps. I have variations in black, dark green, leathers and a diving goof one as seen in the picture. All my other straps are made thicker and were unable to squeeze through the 2mm spring bars. Just thought I would share this disaster.


Anyways one of my european stops was in Roma. I opted to not bring any rolexes and just a less known watch. However, I did stop in at a very nice AD in Belgrade where the staff were very friendly and the stock was surprisingly plentiful. They ended up giving me the necessary 1.8mm bars free of charge.
Unfortunately, I did not take many pictures in the store.

Nice work!
Pretty ballsy to sell the Oyster bracelet before finding the Jubilee, but glad to see it worked out.

My goal is to have a DD2 YG one day and didnt want to get a DJ as a temp to turn into a permeant fix. This way I have a Sub and a GMT with a little more distinction.

Congrats!
100% with you. However, I do like the PLCs, I just don't like the care and OCD like compulsion it takes to keep them looking great.

Congratulations and Im sure it will well serve you including the extra effort it took to personalise it.
Thank you.

Out of curiosity what too young? I am just past the half way point in my 20s and dreaming of the president bracelet.

I have also been called a child and told to "grown up" on more then one occasion. Is this a sign of maturity? Thats a scary thought, hope not lol

I now have two go to watches. One on winder and other on wrist. Bought a winder with two spots to accommodate the future DD. (temporary watch holds it spot until then)
