Wow Paul that's an awesome incoming and shows persistence pays off

Has this replaced or adding to the 35?

Just took this..no filter--straight from iPhone crap pic :-) The whole resizing thing is such a pain in the a**.
Fantastic shot! No offense to your HDR shots, but this one perfectly shows the details of the dial.

Congrats Paul... I guessed right model but wrong choice of metal... glad it's a Ti, as always I think Ti is THE material for RM chronos.

Can you do a strap comparison from previous model.. and what other straps you ordered?

Thanks Edo.

You know what old strap looks like...here is new -03 version. Ordered some velcro and rubber (but they said pretty limited now). They are suppose to ship in a few weeks, but didn't want to wait on the watch.
