Wanted a solid travel watch.

Went for the new scaled down 41mm Tudor Black bay on the bracelet, ordered the rubber with the clasp as well. Although its no Oysterflex, its an absolute star in that price point.

The changes in case size are minimal but make a huge difference between the MK1 and MK 2 41mm and wears much better than the 41mm GMT's in my opinion. I have a small wrist, even the 41Sub is a bit too big but I can pull this off on the rubber a bit easier.

After all these years of I have heavily settled into to 40mm case. YM, Daytona, Migauss etc. It's just what I grab for. Love me some Submariner and always have I've just been switching it up or down I guess. Maybe an older 5 digit or Tudor sub on a strap is next.

Very nice. I have a pelagos 39 and it is my current GADA watch. It’s just about perfect except for the crappy lume on the hands.

Congratulations. That's really nice.

I did something similar for my travels in 2023.

Did you also order an extra clasp with the T-Fit, or simply swapped the one from your bracelet to fit on rubber?
