No. It is unusual for winter but I tend to wear it on a bracelet in summer. I am one of those guys that doesn't always hate a straight end link bracelet on a round watch. I think it gives things a very old fashioned feel and I think that is why it works on the Antea. I think that is the same reason Tudor put a straight end link bracelet on the Ranger- to give it that aftermarket flex-o-fit look. I think it was Frank who brought up the straight lug- straight end link thing.

Those NSA bracelets also work well to give it a vintage vibe.

Love the crystal on that VDB! Is the bezel polished? The light reflection at 7 o'clock makes it look like a white insert, but noon to six looks like a solid bezel with different finishing. It sure does make for a cool lighting effect.
