15400 on oem rubber
Fancied a change so got the strap changed over at the local apsc. Certainly comfy so far and much lighter. Quite a different feel
Colour wise it's harder to match a silver dial. Here's the black and I have navy rubber on order too Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Thanks for sharing. I don't think I've seen this exact combo before, and it looks really sharp. If you have anymore pictures from different angles, please post - love to see more.
Totally different look. Overlaps with my 5167, but it's certainly something I'd consider to mix things up. |

Thanks Peter! Here's a few more angles. My reduction in anxiety about scratching the bracelet is the biggest change so far lol

Looks good. Is the strap available with both deployment and tang buckle? How comfortable is the deployment?

Quote:
couple of observations on the deployant. i. its a friction fit mechanism, so takes a bit of force, especially to release it. the lady opened by pulling hard on the tail of the strap, but i prefer to pull on the clasp itself ii. its a single swing arm deploy so not quite as easy to close like the butterfly style bracelet. Once on the wrist though, it is super comfy, the watch is lighter and it holds the watch more firmly in position than the bracelet as the rubber grips to the skin more (although i had the bracelet pretty tight) |
