G shock day BB night sounds reasonable. Bahamas I bet a Rolex stands out more than AP. You going to be at Atlantis?

Congratulations on the bee. The hornback strap does not take to water well. I would place a rubber strap on it like Mike has done with his black tang buckle. Enjoy your holiday the bee just pops when the sun comes out.

I wouldn't wear BB during the day for slides, etc.. I was thinking safety at night, etc. You'll be fine. The marina there has more multi million dollar boats than anywhere, perhaps not Monaco. Wear that puppy proudly. If you do into town, maybe not. There's a great restaurant across the bridge from Atlantis.

Atlantis is great. You won't have any problems wearing the BB all day and night. Have fun.

This....
You don't want to be worried about your BB during the day while you are having fun. I know it would be in the safe but I guarantee you will still worry if it is not on your wrist. Wear your BB the whole trip and have fun. It is a diver and meant to have some fun in the sun every once in a while.

Leave everything home and just take the BB. It'll handle everything you throw at it. I've used mine rafting, hiking, cycling, dressed up/down, even laundry and dishes. Yes the bezel's taken a lot of abuse and bangs but (knock on wood) it still looks new.

BB on rubber strap is definitely a perfect 'only' watch for holiday
