.....i swing from bracelet, to strap to NATO all the time. Ultimately, I think I am with you....that bracelet is the way to go. Yet, having said that, I think having a change is always a refreshing boost to a watch. I think these early Sub CrownGuards lend themselves to all types of adornment!
I have a target in sight now.... a particular Sub that...to be honest....was driven by the picture of yours!!
