Colt arrived yesterday on the OR strap w/ brushed deployant, thanks to George at Govbergs for a smooth transaction. Also, thanks to Justin for the recomendation.

Also, for the cold season, do you guys think a brown calf or croc strap would look ok on this watch or should I stick with black?

Congrats, love the OR strap/clasp. I'd probably try a black calf, croc is nice but expensive put the funds toward the next watch.

Ok, there is a way to sell me on that one and you definitely made the right choice going rubber over the bracelet. The big logo really stands out and is pretty sharp.

Its got the clang. Where do yo think it will score on the clang scale? It will have dropped soem points for not being on a bracelet. But lets be fair, you can't have it all.

So, will it be enough to be today's winner we ask?

I'll put it thru' the test and see. As ever, let's be scientific about this.

Bring on the ClangMessiah's "Clangometer" and let us go to the studio.

==================================
Scene 1: Scantilly clad hostess totters to compere and presents 'our' timepiece.

Compere: (Booming voice) "Round she goes, and where she stops, nobody knows."

SFX: (from our studio) CLANNNNGGGGGGG! CLANNNNGGGGGGG! Raptuous Applause.

Compere: (with gameshow host sincerity)"Wow! You scored 79% in our studio, Yes friends the verdict is back, 79%. Our second highest score today. Tune in next week for another thrilling installment."

==================================

Not bad. A good effort. Well done.

Congrats on the OR, the most comfy strap around IMO, especially with the deployant.

A gold leather deploying is the best combo for dressier options.
