Can you get the DP111 for an Ocean racer deployant?
I'v got a DP1 on a tang and love the look but not the tang.
I much prefer the deployant as it looks cleaner (micro adjuster too) and when removing the watch its much safer ,less chance of falling than a tang.
Like the look of the DP111 too and Breitling rubber is very comfortable to wear. :lingsrock:

DPII and DPIII are available with tang or deployant.

Now it's ordered, I'll have to line up some suitably blue backgrounds for the photo shoot.

So far I'm planning some Tesco value peas, my jeans and some movies.

Strap arrived yesterday. I have, of course, trimmed it a little short so the micro adjuster is at full stretch to get the right fit.

Might ask if it's possible to buy a single strap rather than a pair (I trimmed 2 & 3, but probably should have trimmed 1 & 2).

The clasp, despite being somewhat expensive for "just a clasp", is absolutely gorgeous.

Anyway, here's a quick photo. I'm afraid I've not got a fast car or an aeroplane in the background, but hopefully my artificially lit phone photo will give an idea of how the blue now stands out.

I like the III. After having the deployment I will probably never go back to the buckle style. I love the deployment. In my opinion I think it's worth the extra money especially after what the buckles did to my leather one. Although I would imagine the rubber would hold up much better than the leather.
