These would look amazing with an old school hesalite crystal, the sapphire kills it a bit for me. A few people have done the conversion on a FOIS 👍

Nice speedy and review. Subscribed.
Does this share the same case as FOIS?

And may I ask what you think is the right price for this model? One is up for sale local, but seller want 8500 USD. 2000-2500 to much?

Same case as FOIS. $8500 is too much, do some research to see what they are selling for these days. The original list price was $6,500.

Just catching up on this thread having seen a few on bracelets for this model - thanks for posting up the in-depth review and video.

I am still on fence as I've never been a bracelet person - I think the textile/sailcloth strap with the deployant clasp posted earlier is going to be a winner for me!

I bought mine new at release, first 'new' watch I have ever bought over G-Shock money. The original leather strap was ok but nothing special, and as I love Horween I have a dark blue custom strap made by Myron at Roverhaven.



Omega buckle from somewhere, think its late 90s...



Also the lume in the ceramic bezel is always a mesmerising moment for me:
