Re: Strap of the Day
It is amazing how snazzed up a square Casio can look on a well made leather strap. Umm, yeah! It's a different animal altogether. You may well have inspired me to do something with my G-Shock 5600 which really doesn't get the use it deserves on the resin band. Vario have this for it. A whole differ...

Re: Rubber 21mm strap with bronze buckle?
Certainly a sensible option! There's one on the leather strap (wide flat tang) it comes on although at this stage I don't know the buckle size.
As you say, likely an 18mm. An odd choice for a 39mm watch but I do like the watch....

Rubber 21mm strap with bronze buckle?
I've had my eye on a watch for which this odd combination would be The Thing.
Come up empty-handed in the search. Anyone got any ideas?

Re: 2024 expectations
I would happily sacrifice PR for a smaller and slimmer movement. I'm on board with that. However I think Marketing will struggle with the idea of 'we updated our movement with a shorter PR'. For mine, the now 'industry standard' 72 hours is enough. And COSC for this of course. Two unknowns: What is...

Re: 2024 expectations
As the current SH21 stands, absolutely. But is it not the idea with SH21.2 that it will be more compact?
Of course whether compact enough for the Twelve is another thing again. Thinness is key for it. We shall see.

Re: Buy a new luxury watch or...... ?
Oh this thread is making me smile. I've found since I've been buying nicer watches I've taken more care with clothing - shirts, pants and shoes. Call it Holistic Self-Presentation :) Makes me feel good about myself. So yesterday I'm at a barbecue with a bunch of old friends who have grown up togethe...

Re: 2024 expectations
The only CW that I can realistically see myself buying next year is a 40mm Twelve concept model. The feeling in my bones is this is the way that SH21.2 'breaks cover'. Personally, the wish is for a Twelve 36 in deeper, richer colours. A nice red wine would be get me interested for sure. Expectation...

Re: Do you do NY resolutions?
Not really a NY resolutions person but:
I am nonetheless determined to get more renovations done on the house.
And like last year, no more than two new watches this year. I said this last year and I got four.
And I already have one on pre-order.....sigh....

Re: Back to the Future
That's the thing! Fall for a watch and then get a deal good enough to say yes.
Best release from them in goodness knows how long. Cool nickname too.

Re: Happy birthday Noush!
^^^^^^
Thank you Patrick. Given how many times I've been late to the party.....
Yeah it's coming up 9pm on the 1st now.
But I have an old friend who is 2 days younger than me and we're having a joint birthday party tomorrow so I'm still 'in the mood'!
