Picked up my SOH today, so now I'm back on the team. :D

It's on a Diver Pro 2, I also picked up a calf strap and deployant (which will go better with the suit) but I'm leaving it on rubber for the moment because it's coming with me to Fiji in a couple of weeks.

Here's a quick wrist shot taken at work. Why do they bother putting cameras into blackberries if the pics they take are this bad?

Nice pick up. I tried to put mine on a black calf strap, it didnt look quite right, Might want to try a gator. If not, im thinking OR or mesh are the only way to go on this watch.

Thanks guys. :mrgreen:

The pic is awful, it might be hard to believe but that was the best my phone could do (yes I'm still blaming the camera, I know I can do better :lol: ).

Welcome back to the 'majors' son! The team needs you. :lol:
I gave you crap when you were demoted so I better respond.
Watch looks good. Tried one on once and I really like the smaller thickness (13mm ?), fit well. Looks like you have a great fit also. Great all-around 'wearer' IMO.

You're trying to pull off a fake with that intentionally blurred photo? :)

Seriously, congrats! Which one do you like the best so far, leather or rubber strap?

:lol: I think it would have to be even more blurred than that to get it past sharkmouth and some others here!

I still haven't tried the leather strap, I think it will look good on the SOH but will probably need some breaking-in. The rubber is comfortable straight out of the box, and I'm very impressed with it - thick and soft, and of course the clasp is great.

Black calf or croco looks great on a black SOH. That is a nice Diver Pro II. This watch looks smashing on Ocean Classic mesh, Ocean Racer or Diver Pro II(w/deployment), and leather(calf and croco). Lots of different looks from which to chose.

BtW, don't you "break in" your straps before you put them on the watch??
