Thanks.
It looks really good on a nato. I have tried half a dozen straps even brought a rolex aligator brown one but to be honest the nato blitzed it for looks and wearability. What do you guys wear ! And could you give a opinion on the Pelaglos. I havent held one asyet but for some reason i feal the face an bezel dont suit the case if that make sense. Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk |

Thank you so much for asking the question, and for that answer. I have the same bracelet and didn't know what to call it.

Im useually very astute but in this case i did not realize the full extent of Rolex/Tudors foundations. Yes i knew what they were but not the fantastic amount of history and culture surrounding the products. Safe to say im very ignorant but a willing student ;-) Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk |

I have a silver one and a blue one. The silver one has the more flimsy bracelet. The blue has the Prince bracelet.

I believe it's a 2671. I can't find where I wrote down its type and serial number.

But of course :-) Would provide the first couple numbers with x's for discerning vintage, but that's about all.

Mini Subs are 33mm, and model numbers mostly start with 73. If the model number starts with 75, it's a 35mm Sub aka midsize Sub. Those don't say mini on the dial.

Twinlock and Triplock are Rolex trademarks for their screw-down crown mechanisms. Triplock is capable of an even higher depth rating, but Twinlock is more than adequate for almost any real-world application. |
