Finally received a new piece I thought I would try. A little different but has some unique features.

It is very comfortable on the wrist, 43mm case, 15mm thickness, and of course brushed finish :D .

Nice look and if I remember correctly, a slightly larger watch than you usually own. Does it "wear smaller" than 43/15?

Yes I actually think it does. It sits very flat on the wrist and with a slight domed crystal the case bottom to lower bezel edge is only about 12mm, so doesn't look/feel too thick. The internal rotating bezel keeps the dial/face from looking too large IMO.

Nice looking pick-up Kodiak, although I don't know anything about Bremont. Quite a few straps for changing up the look too....wow. Grats and wear it in good health sir.

Really nice pick up Terry. I was looking at Bremont's again only the other day. I just haven't been able to commit yet. What are your thoughts of it after having it for a while? The watch looks great on your wrist and it's great that they've given you a bunch of straps to use; I wish Breitling would do that! Very nice indeed.
