Land, Air & Sea, Mix & Match FUN!

Picked up this new bench-top work mat. It works really well. Super functional, but looks really cool too!

Sold out, but if you're curious I bought it from Prometheus Design Werx.

Have a great weekend!

Needs a Speedmaster for the "Space" portion!

I have a Sea/Air/Space, with a Sub (and others), an IWC Mark XVIII, and a Speedy Pro. I'm looking for the right "land" watch to complete the set.

haha I have one. Damn. That's a good idea. Too late

All the watches are back with bracelets on now, and since I have a 2 year old at home, there's only a tiny window for me to play around like this

Gotta be a daytona for you my friend!

Looks great. How well does the 97200 fit the 116500 (if at all)?

This is why I don't have the "land" watch, yet. The Speedy is a chrono already and I've got the Submariner representing Rolex. I'd like a fourth brand and fourth style of watch. A field watch could do the trick but I'm not aware of one on the same general mid-tier level as Rolex/IWC/Omega.

thanks for the laugh.

I can size your bracelet, swap your bracelet and set the time. oTherwise go to the original RSC.

sorry is that the 16710 bracelet or the glidelock?

Either way, I don't care for brushed bracelets on the 116500.

To be clear, I would love if the 116500 came on a brushed bracelet, but that would mean the lugs would have to be polished too IMO, and I don't have the balls to do that to my daytona.

I am going to quote on you some day

BTW, very naive question. I have a GMT 2 black, 116710LN. I am planning to swap the bracelet to NATO Bond color. By any chance you know the lug size to determine the strap size. Is it 20mm or 22mm or 24mm? Thanks.
