HAH! Fat chance of me posting a whole week's worth of watches, Old Crowe. ;)

Nice Orient though, and I never thought I'd ever say that!

MONDAY

This Wristcheck is all about "Zings"!

I hated the new 2007 Rolex Milgauss when I first saw RWG member, Stilty's post, on it. It looked blingy, and plasticky. That orange "stinger" seconds hand just made it worse.

The 2007 Milgauss reps I found were FUGLEE, so that didn't help. :roll:

Until...one day...RWG Member Supermanx was offering his Milgauss for sale! [smilie=alien.gif]

What a beautiful watch. I even like the stinger now! :p

Love it or hate it, the deep rehaut with the engraved "Rolex".

Two shots by the pool, rippling like a zing.

TUESDAY

With my constant shots of the DSN 112, you'd never know I owned two PAM 111hs from Andrew, but I do!

Picked up a strange, TWO-TONE leather strap for it by IW Suisse. Yep, shaped like a ZING. :lol:

And this is what I like: the biggest ZING of 2007, by King Juan Carlos of Spain, "Por que no te callas??"

My 010D on a prototype/test/sample strap from Savage. I really like this strap. It has lots of "body", so if you have to have super-soft, floppy straps, this probably isn't for you. I love the color and texture of this strap though. PM me if you have questions on it. AFAIK, Savage isn't sure if he's going to offer it, yet. Enjoy!

This one for me, today. My 010D on a "blue steel" strap from Tootall. This is a really cool strap. Certainly not an "everyday" strap, but a really nice addition to the collection, IMO. Thanks, Tootall!!!

Awesome Strap! Is the material suede/nubuck or regular leather?

It's a very, very short nap suede, I guess? It's not smooth leather, it's slightly fuzzy. Not nearly as fuzzy as actual suede. Maybe tootall could chime in here....

Hey, first off it looks great!! I never thought about matching it with a white dial!

The leather is called buffed leather. It's not suede, as that is achieved through splitting leather. This is leather that has been buffed to give it a softer texture. It is the softest leather I have. I really love wearing it!

I do however, think that it could be worn more than just with jeans. I think a nice navy suit will go great with it.
