Casual Calatrava
Just got some new kicks for my 5296g sector dial from Bulang and Sons. Provides a really nice contrast to the shiny navy gator strap that it comes with and the quick release spring bars makes strap changes a breeze. I am really loving the versatility of this watch. Cheers!

Looks lovely as a wrist shot, and compliments it

Your photos of this watch over the last few weeks have been fantastic (and very enabling).

Thanks! I appreciate it! It’s like two watches in one. That’s at least how I sell it to the wife. That way I can spread what it costs over two watches.... Quote:

Genuine complement. Reminds me of the Hermes leather. It looks really nice on your sector dial... it definitley makes it more casual which feels likee the strap and the watch was meanth to go together like that. |

Well thanks Fat Ninja. I agree Hermes leather was the first impression I had. I also agree that the watch lends itself to a more casual strap. I think I’ll leave it casual. You put the bug in my head for a 5712R which could be my future office watch... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
