Finally arrived today. I put a Pro1 on it since I don't do straps. For those who have asked, I would say the dial is true white, not silver or cream.

What would you prefer? I've got my eye out for a Pro2, but I'm sure it will take some time. Also, they don't make a Pro2 in brushed that fits, AFAIK.

Cant you take a pro2 and use order the end links with the proper and make a hybrid? Personally I wouldnt have a problem on Croc or Ocean Racer but if you have to have a bracelet I think you might have to get creative.

I don't think they even make a brushed 20mm Pro2. All of the 20mm watches are polished, afaik.

An OR might be nice.

For 2mm I bet I could "make" a 22mm pro2 fit! (Wouldn't take but a few seconds on the fine grit stone)

For all the trouble I think a slightly modded OR might be best

You wouldn't even have to mod an OR, they make a 20/18 OR. That said, I'm pretty happy with the pro1 at the moment!

But the GMT is polished, 131A should fit fine.

beautifull watch. What makes it limited? The GMT? The Color? BTW I like the pro 1 on this watch. It gives it a unique look. I wouldn't change a thing! :lingsrock:
