So nice to see and feel the sun after several weeks of recurrent rain and snow in southern ME. In the woods with Boone and the G4 on the 3861 bracelet and new Soturi strap on the other watch.

@Lou P what's the word on that artem hydroflex strap? Worth the money?

So far so good. Soft and comfy, washes off well with no stinkies. The formed rubber sailcloth is a bit more matte than their regular sailcloth and the stitching looks a little less pronounced for some reason. Hydroflex above here:

They ship with a quick-change spring bar installed which seems an odd choice at this price point.

Not opposed to it, but the shiny tab tends to show its reflection against a polished mid-case. Maybe I'll try to darken it with a permanent marker...

Is it worth 250 USD?...which is near oem rubber price point, for aftermarket, just to get that sailcloth "look". So far I'm OK with it but it's on the edge of making sense to me. I can certainly see that not everyone would be OK with that.
On POLM LE today...YaY!

I showed my 60 year old Tissot PR 516 a day or two ago. It wasn’t until I saw it enlarged that I saw there were there were some “floaters” behind the crystal. So I attended to that, today, and polished the crystal. Looks better, I think. I hadn’t worn this watch for a long time, and I’d forgotten how remarkable a performer that it is. The Tissot bracelet is dammed uncomfortable, however. It pinched my wrist yesterday when I put the watch on! But it is right for the watch.

Yes, that bracelet looks like the Anti-Oyster when it comes to comfort 😬
