Great pick up Steve!

Thanks very much for all the comments Im am very very happy - I know I have made the right choice although it was a little out of my price range (thats what an offset mortgage is for :-)).

I have just come back from the pub after celebrating.

tuisquash · 10 July 2009, 07:40 AM

Well done steve... you are one lucky man to have a 233 as a first PAM...
I am happy for you mate.. CONGRATS.....

and welcome to the FANG world....

louie · 10 July 2009, 11:48 AM

Congrats Steve!!

time for some straps!

5onic · 10 July 2009, 06:35 PM

Ive already started looking at straps :-) - I like the Simona, Heroic 18 and Ted SU makes but still undecided. I think I would like a light tan strap for starters. Im not too sure which is better for a small wrist - advice always appreciated.

With a similar sized wrist to me the bigger straps can be a bit oversized, i'd stick to anything 4mm and thinner, with the OEM straps being nice and Heroic18 and Ted Su doing some nice ones in thinner sizes.

Another 233 Freak!!! HUGE CONGRATS, Steve!!! 233 is a perfect watch!!!

rotan · 11 July 2009, 03:56 AM

Welcome to the 233 family!

eddiethefish · 11 July 2009, 07:19 AM

233 is what I'm aiming at right now...

chu88y · 11 July 2009, 07:31 AM

looking good there fella

Bernard · 13 July 2009, 07:25 PM

The strap thing is a bit obsessive.
I already have three plus the two that came with the watch. The strange thing is I keep looking at others. Now I know why there is a market for the previously unknown watch band folder.

To all outthere is there a maximum before you say enough straps??
