Ulysse Nardin Marine Diver Silver Dial Automatic Men's Luxury Watch 263-90-3/91

boschett reef ranger
hey ya'll! i just ordered a new black reef ranger. i've been agonizing over this purchase, weighing it againsthe oris divers and the smps. finally economic reasons pointed me to the boschett. they have a very limited line, but what they do offer coincided with exactly what i was looking for: a dive watch; a smooth black dial; good luminosity; and a great band. swiss made mechanical is in there as well. i really considered waiting for their mariner to become available, but the more i looked at it the more it looked like it was pretending to be something it wasn't. the band and the blue lume really does it for me. i can't wait to post my pics, and believe me i will! should go great with my black '06 FLTRI. now if anyone would care to comment on the eta2824-2 they're using i would greatly appreciate it. i'm an almost complete novice at understanding mechanical movements. anyway, i opted for 2-3 day usps priority, so i'd better get to detailing my bike for those pics!

New Pro Diver III strap and deployant
Woohoo, my new Pro Diver III rubber strap and deployant was just delivered for my Superocean. Here are two pictures from when I purchased it, at a presale event.Sizing on my Steelfish, love the micro adjustment in the clasp for added comfort.The Breitling Diver Pro III rubber strap was introduced in 2013 and marks the return to the raised hershey style lettering that made the original Diver Pro strap so iconic and popular. The new raised letter is different, however, and has the complete Breitling text on each side of the strap, with the last 4 letters LING being recessed rather than raised.Introduced at the same time with this strap was the new Blacksteel Deployant Buckle.Going to give a rubber strap a try after my reluctance on previous watches, the cost of entry on this piece was very low to test out. And I feel this will be a great combo for the beach in the future as I can take my bergeron tool with me to change from the bracelet.

Longest bracelet change
I bought this back in October, but the bracelet was faulty: too wide to fit between the lugs properly (nice QC Omega!). I guess this is what happens when the watch is sold on a NATO. I took it back to the AD in December and it took Omega until yesterday to get it fixed. That's quite a long turn around time for fitting a new bracelet. I'm glad to have it back, and I just wanted to let the rest of the forum members know that Omega appears to have similar turn around times to Patek.

PP 5140p-017; Anyone have one?
Does anyone have the grey sunburst dial version of the 5140p? From all these images and pictures and ads on the internet, I can't determine if the hands and hour markers are YELLOW gold or WHITE gold? The official Patek website simply describes them as gold, which is no help. Can anyone, who actually HAS one of these or has seen one in a store, chime in, please? And if you HAVE one, do you have any regrets or issues with it? So far, this is at the top of my list for my first Patek. Thanks, as always.
