Go 5726! I'm a relatively new enthusiast and only found out how great and expensive it is here. GMT function too! 🙈

My "go to" for travel. Just doesn't get any better or more comfortable than the Aquanaut!

[QUOTE=watchwatcher;5931705]If I had a BLNR and damn sure would use it for travel. I can't imagine not doing so.



x2

i have insurance so i wouldn't worry. If I'm in the states, I can conceal carry anywhere I go so I def don't worry. Being that you probably can't, just have insurance and I wouldn't worry. Wear it, enjoy it, and worse case scenario if someone is threatening your life for it, just give it up and take advantage of your insurance.

An Omega whenever I feel my 116613LB is too flashy. If I am somewhere really sketchy than my Citizen Eco Drive Diver. Also can double as a weapon of self defense if need be.

i wear my SKX 173 whenever we travel to Africa. I'm not looking for unwanted attention. The last time I was there a group on a hunting trip was bribed by the guys loading the plane for their hunting rifles. The guys loading the plane wouldn't load their rifles without a $500 "tip."

While a Rolex can be put underneath a shirt cuff, it is one of the most recognized brands in the world.

Hard to feel sorry for hunters in Africa.

What a beautiful piece, can't see how that stays below anyone's radar. With those partial numerals around the sub dials, and despite the detailed dial, it's so clear and legible. A work of art, a thing of beauty.

I fly all the time, domestic and international. Work/play 95% it's my 216570.

GMT, paraflex shock absorbers, no ceramic to break, no bezel to gunk up...

Many times, it's on a NATO, so it's even more low profile.

My 16570 has circumnavigated the globe several times the past couple of decades, no one bothered a second glance.
Now on Rubber B, its perfect.

Gotta be honest, aside from my GMT Master 16700, this is the best "traveler's" watch in my collection, a Citizen Eco-Drive Blue Angels Radio Controlled World Chronograph. The "automatic" hour adjustment and radio control from most locations on the globe make this an ideal companion for frequent international travelers.

Sub date most of the time. Keep meaning to pull the trigger on an Aerospace for frequent travel though.
