The Gratuitous "Every Day is Vintage Day" Photo Thread
It doesn't matter what day or date it is, wrist-shot or otherwise. It must only be vintage. And Rolex. I'll kick off with this one; let's see some more, please!

I think I'll "break bad" today and get my very original, Sub 1680 out for a little air.

Keep them coming, chaps. BTW, I love NATOs, they are so practical, comfortable, easy to change… and inexpensive. They look cool too. |

The grey NATO I currently use on it is from 'Crown & Buckle' - it has stitched fastenings for the metal parts, which have black (PVD) coating, if that's the one you mean... I also buy nylon straps from Gnomon. I think both those suppliers are excellent. I have owned a couple of 'Phoenix' admiralty grey straps, and, although I really love the colour, I have found the quality to be a little under par (both the buckle and the weave in the nylon), and the holes/spacing is not right for my wrist-size. |
