C65 AM GT LE #320/350
Another fabulous watch arrived today !
Not from the sale, second hand bought off this forum from James who I bought my C1 GM 5Day COSC from before. It's literally MINT so as new
Love it !!!
Came on the black & red hybrid strap which I've just sold but I've ordered a new bracelet for it which is on its way, it's unique to the Chronograph. Popped it on the ever fabulous camel vintage oak strap for the moment.
A great addition to my collection and to have alongside my C9 AM GT LE also.

Congratulations Ferg, having owned one myself I know how good a watch it is.
Now you've got the watch to set all your other watches by, your collection is complete.
Well? Maybe not.
Enjoy it.

You know I’m a fan. The camel leather looks great. I might look for a similar color for mine. You scored two great watches.

Congrats Ferg on the second incoming this week!!
It looks great on the Camel but also very sharp on the Hybrid strap IMO (respecting the hybrid has already been moved on)

Re: C65 AM GT LE #320/350
Jkbarnes, what are your favorite straps on your AM GT?
I'm debating between the bracelet and a caramel/camel perforated leather strap.

Re: C65 AM GT LE #320/350
Tough question. I have yet to find a favorite. I bought it on the bracelet, and love the bracelet. I also bought two straps from Watchgecko - a black sailcloth rally style strap and a brown perforated strap. I like them, but don’t love them.
The camel color looks a lot better against the dial compared to the darker brown of the strap I bought. I’m still looking for “The One.”

I'll be sizing the new bracelet for it when I'm off next Wednesday.
Looking forward to having it on the watch as it will really transform it.

Re: C65 AM GT LE #320/350
It’s a different watch on the bracelet. I find it to be a completely different vibe to having it on a strap.

Re: C65 AM GT LE #320/350
My AM GT lives mainly on the steel strap. I agree it sits so well on that as a classy number. The other "smart" look is the camel vintage.
I do however switch mine to the black/red hybrid (V2) for a more sporty look. Personally ive not found a way of making this thing look bad! Even on me!!!!

Re: C65 AM GT LE #320/350
I'm wearing my AM GT on the camel vintage leather as I read this. I also like it on the vintage black leather with white stitching. I wish I hadn't have read this thread as I want the bracelet now lol

The bracelet is a must have for this watch! I think it transforms the watch.

Re: C65 AM GT LE #320/350
Looking back over this thread this morning, this might be the best pic yet of the AM GT LE! It almost looks like the crystal isn’t there. And no offense to all the 2 VEV owners, but I’ll take the silver bezel all day, every day over the black. This pic captures it in all it’s glory.
