351 In the House!

I decided recently to get a sandwich dial PAM to go with my 164's painted dial. After looking at a number of models, I narrowed it to the 359 and 351. The copper/gold tone of the hands on the 351, and the brushed titanium case ultimately pushed me to it.

Here it is, on an OEM long tan strap. The AD had to order a longer dark brown alligator strap for me. I kinda like how the stitching in the tan strap complements the hands.





Better shot of the strap.

Congrats Jay. I decided to step it back up to 44mm and picked up a 351 yesterday. I love it for the same reasons as you do. The 1950 is thick, but the Ti case wears nice and it's light. It's on an OEM Cashmere "Blackseal" strap right now. I have an OEM JV strap on the way.

That looks great! I know I will have trouble deciding between the SS and the Ti.
