Well it looks like Ben has a crunch on SM300 when looking at the number he got !

It's funny as well to notice that actually very few of you guys wear this watch with its original bracelet... (for those who still got them of course...)
Mainly NATOs or leather straps on these pictures, any particular reason why ?

I have the original bracelet - just prefer the look on a NATO, particularly a leather one. I do switch it up from time to time, but so far I'd say 90% I prefer a NATO on a dive watch. Even though mine is sadly not a RN issue, I like the close association to that, so feel a NATO is particularly fitting in this case.

Some more to see. Lots of nice stuff out there. Love the forum.

The limit is 3 per collector...unfortunately, you will need to part with one of these. Please contact me for instructions.

I did get three of them from one guy (who is known to many here). Does that satisfy the "limit 3 per collector" rule?

One of these days when I have enough posts I will put something up for sale (just not these!). Sorry that I can't share more.

And how do I make an avatar pic? If I am sticking around here I better go all in.

Thanks guys.

Nato looks just right with sm300 imo!

Cheers!

Well, "nato", leather, tropic or bracelet... doesn't matter, everything looks fine on the SM300 ;-)
An old shark strap or some of the tropic swiss straps are my favorites at the moment.

original Olongapo bracelet

Nato strap

one watch, two ways I wear it.

Amazing how a simple pic can bring back so many memories.

Subic Bay, Olongapo, Cavite City.........................

Wow......them was the days 😁
