126613LN TT Sub on a RubberB review and pic
Pretty happy with it. I ordered it with a tang buckle. The buckle is silver so I'll probably have it gold plated by my AD. The buckle doesn't center on the bottom of my wrist as much as I'd like but I'm nit picking.
I've read where the strap comes "straight down" from the lug. My wrist is 6.75" (17.15cm) and it fits VERY comfortably. I do wish there were more precise slots for a more accurate sizing but it's close enough and will vary anyway depending on temperature, blood pressure, tequilla, etc. My goal was to tone it down a bit for daily more casual settings and I think it did the trick! |

Wow, I REALLY like it. I had one and sold it, now I wish I kept it just to copy your setup. Great work! Gold plating the clasp will be a nice touch.
Actually on second thought it might be too much to gold plate the entire clasp. Maybe just the center to match the OG bracelet? Is it possible to reuse the OG clasp? |

Looks awesome!!! I did the same with my bluesy. I put a blue Rubber B on it to tone it down a bit (TT oyster is a bit too flashy at times) and to give it a more sporty look. Well done.
 Something you might consider is putting it on a deployant buckle. Makes it much easier to put on/take off. I also put the long strap at the 12:00 position as is typical for this type of tang buckle. |

Interesting idea about reversing the straps, I'd forgotten about that option. I did that on my Seiko Cocktail Time to center the buckle better. Thanks for the tips! |
