    ...and another!

    Hi all,

    After a long wait I finally have my hands on my 3-timer and thought I'd share some pics. The dial on this one is simply awesome, and I am a big fan of the textile strap on tang. I now have quite a few strap options to go with both this and my Okto, so it will be fun to mix and match while I come up with my favourite combos.

    Thus far I have:


    • Rubber
    • Rubberized calf
    • HBII Alligator
    • Textile
    • Black Pindot
    • Bracelet
    • Titanium Tang, Steel Tang and Deployment


    Interestingly, while I found the deployment mated to the brown Alligator on my 'One' very comfortable, the deployment on the Pindot was not so comfortable for me. I'm not sure if this is a strap length issue, or perhaps that it is so new and not broken in but I'll try it on the tang and see how that feels. At the moment the Textile with tang is super comfortable, and looks pretty damn cool, so I'll keep it on this for a while

    That is simply gorgeous.

    The three timer dial has to rate as perhaps the best dial on any watch in recent years! It remains my favourite LW to date.

    Great shots!

    Re: ...and another!

    Thanks

    It's a pretty damn awesome piece, and the texture of the dial is just sublime. It's a really nice match with the Okto as well as they are significantly different enough for me to keep both, which is great for me as I'm not usually one to keep multiple watches with the same case-shape.

    The interesting thing for me is that I was really looking forward to getting the pindot strap, and hadn't really lusted after the textile. Now that I have it I'm enamoured by the textile - what a magnificent strap!

    Thanks Nishant. I'll grab a few happy snaps of the LW's along with the Polluce for comparisons sake and post them up. They wear quite differently, even more so than I was expecting.

    Re: ...and another!

    Popped it on the bracelet last night - love it!

    I also find the bracelet the most comfortable band to wear it with thus far so it will be staying like this for a while.
