Very nice Altair. I particularly like the dark brown croco with the little dots on it on the 233, and the lighter croc on the 323. The only one I'm not convinced about is the one that looks like it's made from old carpet on the Sub! Other than that one, they are all great.


Ha ha :lol: The "Carpet" strap is made out of 1940s French Canvas ammo pouches, and is actually quiate amazing in person! I didnt like it in pics either but in real live it has a fantatsic casual flare to it and is very unique!

Fantastic pictures mate - really impressive.

You might have told me before, but what kit are you using?

Also, do you do much post processing in pshop or lightroom?

The collection is so impressive. Cant believe there's no love for the 249 :)


Jay, I use a Nikon D700 + a Nikkor 105mm or maybe a 24-70mm depending, all F2.8 versions. Dont do much post processing anymore, learned that it is much easier to just work in the camera and do minimal light modification in lightroom afterwards, dont even have photoshop installed as I never learned it.

The 249 is now gone, and is being replaced by a non PAM. Just cant stomach a 12K watch that doesnt have an in house movement! And thats the same reason I sold my Fiddy a while back. Also, one you get th 323 no other steel Rad compares!!!

Yeah i've been considering moving the fiddy for a 249+233 (for the third time on the 233).

Lot of love for the fiddy in my house though - in-house movement or not.
