    Hey Bill, I just shot a some new pics of the Turtle on the Isofrane last weekend. I haven't posted any yet. Probably get the shots posted in the next couple of days. I have to say, the Turtle on the Isofrane is perfect. The two work perfectly together for a vintage vibe.

    Is there anything a Watchadoo doesn't work with?
    Like the Isofrane, it must be one of the most versatile strap/bracelet options around

    I like that Watchadoo combo too!

    Like Demo, mine has been living on an Isofrane though...really comfy and carries off that nice vintage vibe very well IMO.

    I don't intend to hi-jack this great thread, but here's a wrist shot of mine on the Iso.

    Thanks for the kind replys.
    Looks like I try the Isofrane next.
    This watch is really very versatile with its size. It is large (and thick) enough for medium to large wrists but yet wears small enough for guys like me that like a large "chunky" watch sometimes.
    I am still amazed at the bezel action. It feels better that some of the more expensive watches I have purchased recently and I haven't had to send it back to the factory for repairs.

    Completely agree. This is my 'sleeper' watch of 2012.

    For the price and quality, this piece rivals many European watches that I have paid x3 as much. And unlike many of the watches I purchased with a high-pedigree, this Helson was perfect from a QC perspective.

    Service was outstanding and the Turtle hasn't left my wrist in over a week. I am enjoying it on the supplied soft rubber strap, but that Watchadoo looks nice!

    I am definately a Helson fanboy now.

    I know it's silly, but there's one thing that bugs me about this watch, namely the arial like font used on 'automatic'. I just hate it for some reason. :/

    Other than that, I loves the watch - and that minor issue wont stop me from buying this one at some point.
