it looks good on a black leather no stitch..
i didn't use the deployment, just a buckle.
so light and so thin under the cuff that way.

also nice and nearly dressy if you have ink free arms..
(bracelets always pop too much against my black ink.)

i was on the list for the bracelet, but then realised i have a whole bunch of bracelets sitting in the drawer, so i picked up a leather 58 and swapped it out to black.


i was thinking i might try and find a straight end bracelet for it, like the Ranger if i go bracelet.
just for something different.
if anyone knows a good 20 straight, please give me a heads up direction.

hope the pics helps someone following along in the background like i was.
someone also asked about a size reference way back.
i figure most have a skx.
doesn't wear as physically small as you might think, but feels so much smaller because it's thin.

some also mentioned bezel insert colour - it's pretty close to mid late 30's rose gold but perhaps a fraction lighter, towards a pink /copper hue perhaps.
the more i look at it the more i like it.
still couldn't capture the colour exactly though.

i never worry about accuracy, but for those that do it has gained 3 seconds over the last 3 days.
so +1 a day but i haven't worn it a lot.
i need to train myself, as its so light and thin on leather i honestly forget i have it on and i'm worried i'll solidly bump it early in it's life.

hope the pics help someone.
just wanted to say thanks to those that posted and it's worth the wait for those still waiting.
