My Bluesy!

Hey peeps! So I took the bi metal bracelet off as it was getting too much attention and went with blue Everest band.
I love it and a lot less subtle.

Doesn't work for me at all. But still fun to mix it up.

Makes it look WAY more like a dive watch (weathered brass tool). Or a child’s playtoy.

Those blue rubber bands were made for the bluesy. They should be a must for any bluesy owner. Awesome watch in it's own right but them bands gives it a whole new fresh look.

Although it looks nice I Prefer the TT bracelet and as I’ve paid for it will keep on that, only had mine a week so not had any attention yet.

Looks OK but the TT bracelet is much better. IMHO

It’s a change of pace for summer time. I’ve often thought about throwing one on mine.

I’d probably wear it more if I did.

I’m confused.

The bracelet was getting too much attention. But the strap is a “lot less subtle”

So it stands out more than the bracelet?

Clarify....

I think the TT is too blingy. I have my bluesy on a Barton blue canvas.

Looks pretty good actually. I don’t know if will yield less attention! But still, nice to have options.

Knowing how great the Barton canvas straps are, I think I would prefer that if I was going to take my bracelet off my TT Bluesy...which I would not be interested in doing.

I think the TT bracelet is what attracted me to this watch in the first place!

I prefer the original bracelet but when rubber bands call I would go black matching the dual instead of the bezel.

A touch of blue on my wrist is always lovely. I love the bracelet too. Nice watch.

Nah! Not liking it!

Is it just me or does anyone else notice that the rubber bands actually make your wrist sweat more?

How the heck do you guys get such great pictures?!? Apparently, my cell phone camera sucks! (Or, "it could be the pilot, not the plane")

Bluesy belongs on its bracelet, but YOU like it and that is all that matters.

I think it looks fine -- a nice, playful alternative look.
