    Gotcha, Yeah I like the look of the brass there. Looks good with the two tone. Personally the nickel bezel would be a bit much flash for me. If you can do it safely, I would go for it. Mod these watches like we mod our trucks. Can always order a spare.

    Nice. Also, once the brass is exposed there are a lot of techniques to speed up the patina and give it an even more unique look.

    Im sure. Should be fun to see it change. Love living in the mountains but the air out here lacks the salt I'm used to in the South. Mine is taking a bit longer. I like the natural age, no two will be the same depending on activities and its use. Kinda cool like that.

    Never knew this. That’s awesome and gives it a really nice look.

    Consider grabbing a full brass down the road. It was only a little leap of faith from all the positive reviews on Helson, Armida, and a few other small batch watches, and mine lived up to it all. Very reasonably priced for what you get in a 300m Seiko Auto.

    I prefer them. What I like is they all feel the same. What I love is that I can break a pin and not loose my watch. Plus, you can change bands with them on ,most watches in like 5 seconds.

    NATO's are super comfortable especially if you get ones made from seatbelt material. I'm not a fan of the tuck either and I prefer the 3 ring zulu`s they are perfect for daily wear.

    Personally I like mine pretty tight. I can’t stand when my watch moves around on my wrist.

    I can understand that. If I’m going to be out in the heat, I wear them looser. I made the mistake one time of wearing a bracelet kind of tight before walking around in the heat. I ended up mcgyvering something I had in my truck to adjust the micro adjustments all the way out on the clasp. Since then, I try to plan ahead.
