Watch shopping on vacation

So it got a little hot and decided to see if I could oil the wheels of the economy a bit.. while looking for something for my wife, I came across THE Ti.. I was very pleased to feel how soft the strap was compared to my RG 44. Here are some pics







The Patek guy was trying hard to sell me this one..

Can't go wrong with a 5167 on bracelet.

I've been trying in vain to get my wife to try that 37mm offshore on for a long time. Buy it for your wife and post wrist shots, then maybe i can convince mine.

And wow, your sub looks tiny in comparison to the Ti

Agree on the strap. It is weirdly soft especially coming from the diver strap which isn't soft at all, then to the RG 44 strap, then to the grey Ti strap. Its way softer/less rigid than the others.

Strange the strap is much softer, I really like the RG's sturdy one. Aqua is a no go for me on the bracelet unless he sells for the strap's price.

the 5167 on bracelet just doesn't look right

sales lady tried to sell me on this piece yesterday

If it was on strap, it would've been on my wrist the same day.

love that lady offshore. Would go well with my wife's lady RO in white. Too bad she abuses the one she has so bad I cant justify getting her another.
