Thanks Bill. BTW - I see you are from AL. I grew up in B'ham and still have friends and family there, as well as up in Huntsville.

Being a fellow 5B owner you seem spot on with this great review.

What do you think of the Leather and NATO strap(s) that come with the 5B?
I have not worn mine on the Leather yet just the NATO and it is the only NATO I have ever worn.

The leather looks great but was too short and stiff for me so I ordered custom straps. The NATO is non-traditional with the sewn in springbars and stretches /narrows to show the springbars so I’m not using it.

LOL - yeah, takes a manly wrist for sure!!!

I had to laugh at myself for that one, but did correct it in the video description. I have zero editing skills, so that was all done in 1 take.

Here’s one of the two custom straps I had made for it. The other should be here in the next week or so.

I absolutely adore the colors of this watch. Waiting for it to come out in '58' size as the original BB was too large for my scrawny wrist.
Nice review.

Nice review.

Thanks. At 43mm it seems proportional to the case thickness. If it were smaller diameter and not made thinner too it’d be too thick IMHO.
