incoming

Govberg just got this 5167 in. Only a couple of years old. Mint. Wasn't in love with the 5296 so much as the idea of the 5296.... Beautiful watch, just not me.
A couple of emails to Josh at Govberg. Some culling down of the stable with the departure of the IWC. Shipped the 5296 off and this came in return. This feels to me more of a better all around wearer then the 5296 was.

Thanks. Wasn't sure about the bracelet.

Govberg had a strap model and this one in stock. Thought I would roll the dice.

Frankly I'm glad I did. Its probably the most comfortable bracelet I have ever worn outside of a Royal Oak, the same goes for the craftsmanship in the bracelet. It also dresses up the watch as well.

If I went for the strap model I would have had to shell out 3k plus for the bracelet....!!! if I decided I wanted one. Ouch.
