Chopard

Back in the saddle (BCD?) again...

 

It’s been a while since I’ve been able to shop for a watch, but my 5120, while very nice, is not something I feel comfortable taking to the beach or swimming with the kids. 


So, after keeping my eye out for a nice dive watch, I finally was able to close a deal on this GMT. The bezel doesn’t interact with the date function, unfortunately, but I do like the orange and black contrast. This watch came with what looks like the 22/20mm leather strap, so the (double) deployant buckle is the kind that “locks” onto the strap with a screw. I think there is another strap combination with an 18mm strap that has a conventional (single) pin buckle deployant. 

Either way, my first since the disaster in London, but I couldn’t stay away for long.  And anyways, my stereo setup is complete, so that hobby is done for a while.
