In praise of the 93150

[Seaward]

I know we all love the new style (updated) bracelet and clasp, and why wouldn't we? It's beautifully crafted, solid as a rock and has a spring loaded deployant clasp (long overdue, I know!). I have seen many posts praising the new style bracelet, and have to concur, it is a marvel of Rolex engineering.

As amazing as the new style bracelet / clasps are, I feel compelled to pay tribute to the outgoing, now discontinued 93150 bracelet. My Z series 14060M's (and first Rolex) has held up remarkably well, as my 14060M and I have done most everything together since 2007, as it was (and probably still is) the most versatile watch in my collection. I have worn the watch while playing sports, traveling the world, celebratory dinner and events and pretty much any and everything on between.



Sure the hollow links and 501A end links rattle (I now find this somewhat charming, as my Daytona is solid as a rock) but the bracelet serves very well, and despite many critics who will say otherwise, I love my 93150 and wouldn't trade it for an updated bracelet / clasp.

Thanks for reading my long winded post. Enjoy the pics.
