Thanks for remembering

The GO has been a great watch. So much better than that oxidizing Blue Wave I had ( the anodized blue screws were turning red in the mvmt). It might be hard to break away from the swan-neck adjustment.  It was easy to regulate that brand. The BP appears to be different. Dare I venture into that movement? Most likely no.  I know my limitations and would take the forums advice and get a package deal from a good jeweler to regulate it if need be. I want to move away from the classic cyclops convex lens date ( reminiscent of the submariner). I don't want to work so hard at seeing the date any more. In reviewing the GALLERY, I noticed there are quite a few picts on the 50 fathoms here. There are many admirers of that watch on this site. It must be a wonderful watch considering it was worn by Loyd Bridges, Cousteau and now the CEO of Lambo. I was too young to notice those folks wearing back then. All I knew was the Rolex. BP still sells watches w/ metal bracelets too; it's a bit more durable for my life style. I like that ( it is difficult to get a used metal bracelet for the GO). Can you direct me to any reviews/galleries as well on the Big Date Flayback, its mvmt, opinions from others. BP service?
I'll be going to  T - - - eau in Atlanta this weekend to check out the possibilities...

Much appreciated,
