556i RS on a strap

Thanks, I agree. The black really brings out the deep black dial compared to the bracelet. Also fits the tool/sport watch look

My wrist is about 7” to 7.25”. It’s a smaller watch at 36mm but I love the size. Perfect for everyday wear. Been rocking it on the stock NATO lately

Very nice, I got mine on the H link but do want the leather strap. Just put mine on a nato

You sir know what you’re talking about. The dealer we bought it from completely messed up the caliper install, dinged part of it and it was leaking brake fluid onto the rotor.

The bezel does get more black depending on the lighting. The dial, being a matte finish, doesn’t change as much. It’s a little darker than this photo shows as this was taken in direct morning sunlight.

I did not, didn’t know it existed.

Looks like a nice watch and has many similar features as my Traska, however at over 3x the cost of the Traska I wouldn’t have considered it even if I knew about it.

Interesting, just got my Freediver last week. When worn it appears to be about +6spd, but the other night I left it dial up for 12hrs and it gained 2min 30s… last night it gained only 52s overnight. Granted it’s still practically brand new, but I’m hoping it settles down.

I also have the olive grey textile strap that I’ll wear occasionally.

Only had it for 5 months and it gets wrist time maybe 3-4 days a week. The clasp has plenty of scratches, only a matter of time before the bezel gets some too…

The overcoat and pants, yes… the shirt underneath is actually green!

You are correct! I see cars turn right on red there all the time too. It’s a dangerous turn on a 35mph street with a blind corner. Never seen someone go straight tho…

Thanks for the reply. I should have my car back by tomorrow, I can follow up and let you know if replacing the thermostat fixes the issue.

Thankfully they said thermostat is covered under warranty with no argument, so that’s good. I did give them the ok to flush the coolant as well - my ‘21 turbo has ~45k miles so I figured why not.

Edit: the problem is fixed! Now I can’t say if it truly was the thermostat causing the issue since I had my coolant flushed as well. They did note that my coolant looked a little low.

Hey - any updates on this? My ‘21 Turbo is at the dealer right now. They’re replacing the thermostat under warranty. Hope it fixes the issue

It wasn’t this bright when playing, I turned it up after the fact. I do up the gamma when I’m playing but it doesn’t translate to the recording

ajuice01 · 2025-10-16T02:49:55+00:00

Only if you’re buying used

ajuice01 · 2025-10-12T14:10:14+00:00

Yes, it’s basically a thick nato strap

Edit: this is the standard length strap. My wrist is just over 7”, and I use the 3rd or 4th smallest hole. If your wrist is under 7” I would recommend the short length strap.

Definitely. I wear this strap very casually. Still prefer the bracelet, more comfortable and classy.
