Have Tudor released any printed material which features the P01, like a catalogue or a baselworld 2019 brochure etc?

Right I have managed to remove the strap with a safety pin. Spring bars are tight in the strap ends but I have finally managed to get a khaki green NATO type strap on from Watchgecko. It doesn't fasten centrally but it's looks good to me. I have never posted photos on any forum as I don't know how to reduce file size so intend to download Tapatalk tomorrow as I'm out for the night now. For me it now feels and looks like I hoped it would.

New watches under chf 4000, I believe. Basically best bang for ur buck. Lol

The other 5 watches in this year were not impressive to me.
Easy choice for po1 imo.

That watch looks to be 55mm on your wrist! Maybe it’s just the angle, but man it does not look like it fits well.

Yes I believe it is and I'm pretty sure the above will work also.

Great thanks for your feedback.

Is there much room to work with between the spring bar and end link, I am just wondering if only thin nato's would work.
