    I bought this watch a few months ago and it was only available with the leather strap. I convinced my wife to let me buy the bracelet and after two months, it arrived. Hope you all like it as much as I do.

    And the real beauty:

    A very well done combination and so nice that you can swap back to your leather strap when you desire. I am always pleased when I feel I have "improved" a watch I loved in the first place !

    That's a very nice combination. Do you have a wrist shot too?

    Kind regards,

    Thank you Todd for the wrist shot, it looks very nice! Is the runner that keeps the loose end of the bracelet in place move freely or is there some kind of mechanism holding it in place?

    Kind regards,

    Clemens

    Clemens,

    There is a loop that slides with ease holding it in place. If that wasn't there it would be terribly annoying, as it would be more susceptible to scratches. At first glance it looks like the loop is welded to the bracelet, but with a little force, it'll slide.

    Thinking of getting one?

    Todd
