Eddie, is this the RG GP leather strap or a different strap?

This shot came out too well not to post... inspired by Mohammed's above post with this year's AP book.

Still can't get over how well this watch responds to different lighting...

Reducing the image size has messed up the clarity a little bit, in it's full 3500 pixel size, it looks better. My new wallpaper.

My wrist has done the opposite, used to be @8.25", now that I'm in competition mode, it's about 7.75".
After my show, when I gain my weight back and wrist goes back to normal, I would like to go try that bad boy on!
You REALLY have me thinking about that Legacy. I've always LOVED it, love that black with RG accents on it. I also like that T3 because I feel its a bit more versatile being Ti and black as I have nothing in gold tone in my wardrobe.

Any thoughts on the T3?
Thanks Mike,

And I agree the Legacy doesn't wear that bad after all.
But I must say I wouldn't want any AP branded with the governors name on it (Except the EOD)

Why not Thomas, you don't like Arnold or another reason? BTW, I like the EOD and even the Survivor too, but I don't like the PVD case. Once they get a scratch they look like crap.

Why no Arnold watches Thomas? Don't like him, or too large and hard to move if needed to? is the EOD ok because it's only 44mm as opposed to the 48mm Legacy and T3?
I'm sure you've seen/tried on a T3 in person as I know you have the Legacy. What are your thoughts on the T3 compared to the Legacy?

Mike,

Just not all into have a watch with the case back engraved with his name.
I actually love some of the watches being made for him like the Allstar Jules Auedemar.

The EOD has become such a iconic ROO and yes the 42mm sure wears nicer.

Yes I have tried the T3 and I definitely prefer the Legacy over it.
It wears so uncomfortable due the pusher guards, And the resale is very bad being a LE AP.

Thanks Thomas...Ike I mentioned, the PVD case scares me. As for the T3 pushers, I'm one of those oddballs that wears their watch on the right hand even though I'm right handed. The pushers wouldn't be a prob... I don't think. I feel the T3 is more versatile due to the Ti case and dark grey dial, even though the Legacy is bad a$$!

Thanks Ed and I am to please....Long sold out though and not easy find. Most people who advertise having them really don't!
