Big congrats! Looks really great.

Looks great - I’ve been thinking about blue but I also have aqua and really like it. Is it still the same small bracelet with barely enough links? Are you changing to that mark push button clasp one again.

Correct sir. I have already pulled the folder from the Aqua and installed on the blue. The blue model is all brushed parts and the OE folding clasp in that config is currently on back order. I had a guy brush the very small PCL and the only polished part on the clasp I have is the logo outline/slide release. It actually looks pretty decent the way it is. May just leave it as is. Pics tomorrow.

Congratulations.

This is a comp of the aqua bracelet with the PCLs and the new blue with the brushed center links and the folding clasp from the aqua now installed on the blue. Lighting conditions make it a challenge to photograph the difference with a phone. Ultimately, I am indifferent to PCL vs BCL - I like them both equally and think both/either work on this watch. Now almost 24hrs into owning the blue that is hands down my favorite of the two.

I am sticking with aqua after black, but the blue is pretty, too.
