5167 now on the tropical

So, I recently got my 5167 on the bracelet and my AD was able to get me the tropical and deployment clasp as well. I just got it in the mail today and switched out the bracelet...

This is seriously an extremely comfortable watch to wear, it’s almost like it’s not even on my wrist! I can easily see this as a daily wearer.

The way an Aquanaut should be!



Enjoy

but I am an admitted rubberaholic.

Out of interest - do you think you will wear it on the bracelet sometimes too, as well as having it on the tropical?

Yes, although it is a bit of a challenge to change out due to the pins in conjunction with the spring-bars...

But the bracelet feels great also, but the rubber is simply amazingly comfortable... It's really like having two different watches...

I’m definitely situated in the rubber camp. Looks like an Aquanaut!

This watch lowers a golf handicap 3-5 strokes. Science!
