Hi all,
Well I successfully snagged one of the latest iterations of these lovely watches.
I’ve owned the previous 2 iterations. The first one - I think the bracelet just didn’t work for me, well the buckle anyway. The second, I wasn’t sure at the time, but getting this version I think highlighted that the logo was just unbalancing the dial. So, when I saw Eddie’s mock-up pictures of this one I just knew I wanted it. What a fantastic watch this is. It could truly be my only watch. It’s quite photogenic too... I’ll be posting some more photos, but here’s a starter!

Looks lovely! I agree the new logo really ties the whole dial together more cohesively. I'm (im)patiently waiting for mine.
I looks spot on
Really looking forward to seeing pics of these in various straps

It may well be one of those watches that seems to suit virtually anything.
I used to hate bracelets but when I got round to trying some better quality ones found that I could kind of get on with them. The one on my Explorer was excellent. There is no doubt that some pieces look much nicer on a bracelet.
Their bulk and weight usually ends up irritating me at some point so my watches often end up on leather or better still Perlon for at least some of the time.
I think that the vintage look of a grey Eulit will go well with this new version of the Everest.

It’s definitely a watch that can go with any strap I agree.
In the end, I wanted an everyday watch on a bracelet that could be worn for anything, whilst having a heritage or style that made it feel special, whilst not costing a silly amount of money. And I think this might be that watch!

Damn. Forgotten about the release. It does look great now. Not that the previous 36 isn’t, but the new logo completes it.

It really is the perfect Go Anywhere Do Anything watch. I'm chuffed to bits with mine
I must be the only one that prefers the old logo on the black dialed Everest !
It's just a cleaner, simpler look in my eyes ... one word in the top half to balance the one word in the bottom.
Titties..........that’s all I have to say!!!
And enjoying a break in the weather....

That's a cracker, I have the original but think I prefer this one with the new logo.
Enjoy!
Some nice views on this video:

I love mine also, I think that the new logo really does make the dial and whilst the old logo looked good, this one looks way, way better.
If I could change one feature on the dial, I would also have the word Everest printed in white also, this would complete and give the dial balance and symmetry....look at the white dial version, my personal opinion.
As for straps, I think the watch would look great on just about anything but for me, I think it's perfect on the bracelet.

The straight logo was the main thing that made me uncertain about buying the Everest before - I do think it looks great on the prs29 though.
I said to a friend of mine (and Everest Expedition owner) that if the logo was ever changed to the de luxe style, I would have to buy one.

As nice as the bracelet is, I work in IT and need a strap that doesn't interfere or catch on the keyboard. This parachute strap does the job.

Received my PRS-25 yesterday. Such a lovely timepiece.
I have thrown it on a jubilee - I like it so much that I’m thinking of transferring the smiths clasp.

Looks fantastic!
I’m still (im)patiently waiting for mine. I ordered two leather straps from Two Stitch Straps as I prefer wearing a leather strap to a bracelet.

Which Jubilee bracelet is that?

It’s just a pseudo Rolex one from Etsy. I picked up some 20mm end links from eBay that are for a Rolex and they fit well. I think there were about £4.
I also transferred the smiths clasp across...

Do these work alright on larger wrists? Say just under 7.5"
My friend has a 7.5” wrist and wears the 36mm Expedition on a a leather strap. That looks fine to me in consideration of it being a vintage-style timepiece. But it depends on your perspective.
Still, I think you have a bit more leeway when there is a bracelet as they tend to wear larger.

That’s a stunning combination!
As soon as mine arrives I will be throwing it on a leather strap.
