Re: some answers

 

The reason why I thought about the titanium bracelet is that it was awailable with the limited edition of the Master Compressor Diver GMT (44mm), so my guess is also that it would fit the NSA (maybe the hue of the titanium will not bee a perfect match, but at least the watch will look 100% when I wear it with the leather/cordura strap). I have also read on another forum (from an official press release by JAW) that there were 4 strap/bracelet combos available (titanium amongst them), but the release also contained errors about the NSA (that it has a rotating gray/white disc to show functioning operational status). What does seem to be right at least is that there will be 3 combos:

1. vintage leather (mix with cordura) + diving cordura strap
2. articulated rubber + diving cordura strap
3. cast rubber + diving cordura strap
(and possibly 4. titanium + diving cordura strap smile )

I will for sure go to my AD at once when my watch arrives to pick it up, hope to learn some things about change of straps there. I also have some plans to have some custom straps made locally, so we will see.

It seems I have abandoned my other plans for a daily wearer for now, so I hope this watch will fit the bill!

Again thank you for filling in the details Nicolas!

Regards,
Rick

Articulated rubber vs titanium bracelet

Hello everyone. I am worried about the durability of the articulated rubber bracelets. How long will it last before the rubber itself will degrade (probably depends on usage, but let's assume that the user is the sporty type ... rubber exposed to sweat, s... 

So what about the NSA?

Nicolas, you have tried the NSA at SIHH right? I suppose that watch would not look as hot with a titanium bracelet as opposed to the articulated rubber? Maybe the gray hue of the titanium will bee "too much" for the black dial? And how durable are these c... 

Rick, I saw the N.S.A, yes

Saw it on the articulated rubber , but also with the Cordura / Leather strap, this last being without any doubt my absolute favourite. I also saw it on a Nato, which is less elaborated than the cordura, but gives an interesting look to the watch. As for t... 

Sounds promising

If I will indeed go for the NSA as my daily wearer (I am still considering a few other options) i will probably order it with the titanium bracelet (if possible) and the leather/cordura strap. Is changing bracelets/straps on this model something which req... 

Some answers, rick

I think that you can put a Titanium racelet on the N.S.A, but it will be a bit expensive, as the watch is not delivered with. Changing a bracelet or a strap is not as easy as it is on the EWC, becasue JLC didn' choose the quick system which exists on this...

I always prefer using only Titanium jeweleries. It is really classy and sparkling with awesome collection of designs. Recently I bought a Titanium Bracelet From store.intensetitanium.com . It will be awesome.
