    that would be great!

    I'm not sure there's an easy way to do it without interfering with all the checking, packing, and shipping of the watch orders, but it would be great if there were ongoing orders for straps. I'd...

    Embarrassing? What an odd characterization. Lume on a bezel can be useful - remember when a watch's utility was a factor in its value? It's not right for every bezel -- not even right for every diver...

    Agree 100%. I didn't mind the Everest on there, but I thought Commander was a nod to Bond without being too on-the-nose. I'll line up for this watch either way but I like the change to Commander.

    This looks classic - I wear the riveted bracelet and don't mind it but do these oyster bracelets ever come up for sale/trade?

    Okay, maybe two prototypes, I'll take one too. Seriously, though - I'd never have thought you could fit the diver real estate in 36mm but looking at the Tudor 75090 sub, it's gorgeous. This may not...

    Nice Render!

    Interesting comparison - seems to me that especially with the simple 3 - 6 - 9 layout the smaller dial doesn't come off as diminutive/crowded (which would have been my main concern). I'm hoping this...

    True, which is why my bank account / marital capital account are glad it's not that size.

    That said, this is gorgeous - great choices for hands, bezel design, colors - and matching the BB58's WR...

    I got in, and just got a dispatch notice (pleasantly earlier than I'd expected - maybe my order was towards the front of the queue?).

    Looking forward to trying out the Baby Willard!

    First off, I think this is really a matter of personal taste, but to my taste, the two-tone doesn't have enough support for the gold in the watch head/dial. If the bezel were gold, or there were more...

    Same here - this is a no-brainer purchase for me, especially with a textured dial. Can I ask why you'd prefer the fixed bars? I'd queue up for this either way (and whatever the movement, frankly -...

    Had the same thought myself - and then immediately figured Rolex marketing would claim having done it first (like they did with summitting Everest)!

    Not a daft Q at all. There is, in fact, a forum for sales - you just need to meet a minimum post threshold to view it (50 posts IIRC).

    No Time to Die (black | silver | gold) NATO?

    Anyone wearing this on the NTTD / "modern" Bond NATO? I thought it would look sharp on the gilt Everest.

    First reference the original Omega version, which seems a bit too muted/vintage-lumey: ...

    ...been eyeing polar-schemed watches for a while and always thought if the polar Explorer II ever came in 38mm I'd just have to sell a kidney - but this would be perfect.

    I've been wanting the Hamilton H76419931 for a while - and figured I'd get it eventually. Hard to say whether this would be my preference without seeing more than renders, but I'd rather have the...

    I didn't, but maybe should have, it is a bear to get in there. I wondered if forcing it through would, over time, fray the ends of the strap. I've never used curved bars - would any 20mm do, or do...
