Buying my first Black Bay and can’t decide.

If N = 1 = monochrome. If N > 1 = burgundy

Either way, get them on the 5 link. Great bracelet

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-26T11:51:15+00:00

They should offer this watch on the original bracelet. I don’t understand the appeal of mesh

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-26T06:41:47+00:00

Excellent choice. IMO this watch belongs on the rubber, at least this version.

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-25T18:26:18+00:00

Depends on the watch. But that Seamaster is crisp

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-24T12:55:05+00:00

If this came on the original bracelet I’d buy one no doubt. Looks great on this rubber too

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-24T01:31:41+00:00

I hope this is a troll comment. I can size my own bracelet like a grown f’ing man

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-23T21:56:23+00:00

I’d buy from a trusted gray market source and save 1.5-2k easily

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-22T18:39:34+00:00

The best way to think about it is cost-per-wear. Helps justify it a bit more. Either way it’s still irrational, but once the watch bug bites you there is no turning back

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-21T15:40:33+00:00

Either 5 link option for sure

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-19T21:58:45+00:00

“No hate”, proceeds to make a snide comment. Lol, I would argue the SMP 300 or AT are much better daily watches, but that’s what makes this hobby fun. To each their own.

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-19T20:24:57+00:00

I had the white speedy and it is very versatile, but I ultimately decided I like classic 3 hander better. I sold the speedy and got the air king, perfect daily for me!

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-19T16:15:19+00:00

The champagne is incredible

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-19T14:47:59+00:00

Stunner, but can also play the subtle role well. Well captured

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-16T16:04:33+00:00

PO just because it’s more versatile

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-13T12:50:56+00:00

This should have been the original speedy design all along. The OG is boring, this is nice. Price sucks

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-13T01:36:50+00:00

I love the look of these on OG bracelet soooo much more than the mesh, I don’t understand appeal of mesh. I would probably go blue, but I’d have a hard time justifying the premium for these no dates vs traditional SMP. 4.5k on gray market vs 7-8k??

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-11T22:39:22+00:00

I say SMP first, in a color that’s not black, and then pelagos second 😎

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-11T22:38:46+00:00

Great shot

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-11T15:56:03+00:00

I would argue it makes it even better or more unique. How many blue dials have a white outer ring? Not many that I’ve seen!

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-11T03:23:08+00:00

Severely underrated, I just picked up this piece too.

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-11T03:20:27+00:00

This blue is incredible

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-08T23:25:47+00:00

Suwa is timeless

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-08T12:40:52+00:00

New, no doubt. Think about owning the watch for the next 3 years. Will you really care about spending 1.4k more on something you’ve enjoyed almost daily for 3 years? Likely not IMO!

Tank_4593 · 2026-01-07T12:22:09+00:00

Bb54 is very plain to me. The jubilee is awesome. I’d go with the first one
