Beautiful! How did you get another strap to fit?

Hi there. It’s a Gen strap, but the tongue on this is slightly wider than the rep strap but not by much, so I filed about 0.25mm off each side of the tongue and although the slot on the underside of the tongue is a slightly different shape on the Gen, it nevertheless still works perfectly. By the way, I love that pale blue ceramic you posted in the shot at the top of the page - it looks genuine and also the pic directly above this. If that is not Gen, can I ask where it was from?

Wish they had repped the 42mm, although the 45mm looks OK on my wrist with the canvass strap, I think the 42mm would be even better!

Personally I like a larger watch or 44/45mm better, however I do agree the 42 is more comfortable to wear, but I’d still rather have the larger watch

I have not seen the 42mm in the flesh so I guess might feel different when I have.
