Thanks guys!
I put the PADI on a 22mm Damasko rubber strap, I don't care for the OEM bracelet.

Obligatory wood pic lol. All my watches get the piece of wood on the Webber grill photo.

Sweet I just picked up a DB1 as well. Was looking at Damaskos but non of hem really sang to me until I saw the DB1/dB2.

I also bought a turtle a few months ago. Guess we have similar taste, haha

Thanks guys!

I'm a sucker for Seiko divers, and I missed having a damasko.
They are damn near impossible to scratch, and that makes for a great daily beater.

Thank you Jocke!
