I've had a hard week, working 12-15 hours a day to meet some impossible deadlines. But it's Saturday morning, so I thought I'd play for a while... and that means giving as couple of watches completely different looks. I don't know about you, but I really, really like the results.

First up is my 5513, taken off the bracelet and given some time on one of Jed's fantastic leather straps. I've got a couple of them, and the softness/suppleness is unlike any other strap I've had. I reckon this one with the 5513 looks the nuts...

Next up is the GMT, reunited with it's fat font black insert and then popped back on the bracelet. It really is like a different watch, and again looks absolutely gorgeous.

Right, time for a late breakfast

Looks great! I just bought one of those straps from Jed and I can't wait for it to arrive. What year is your GMT? That dial and those hands are amazing.

learningtofly · 26 February 2012, 01:05 AM

Thanks guys. The GMT is a '63 and the 5513 a '67

Brown leather and black dial equals home run in my book.
