    I took fresh pictures today of the watches that we will be wearing tomorrow.
    For me, still the Portuguese:

    Name: 150403_IWC_ref_500107_2.jpg Views: 255 Size: 40.6 KB

    My wife is still wearing her Mark XVI - before any of you comments on her hairy wrists: her watch was on the kitchen counter while she was in the process of making / baking Easter Stollen - a traditional, seasonal Dutch / German type of raisin bread, which we can't find for sale in our area - so I "modeled" her watch. Look closely and you will notice a light dusting with flour:

    Name: 150403_IWC_Mark_XVI_2.jpg Views: 258 Size: 38.5 KB

    My plans changed when I checked my mailbox and found a little package with lyonk's hand made strap in it.
    Got out some tools, fitted a plane buckle, "drilled" a single hole and fitted it on my '00 3570.50 Speedmaster Professional (more pics here)
    This is the combo that is now on my wrist and will be probably for at least a week:

    @Bidle - fantastic pick-up. Congratulations!

    Im off to Chongqing this weekend for three days, and taking my Tissot with me. The bracelet will be better suited for the hot, sweaty weather I'll be dealing with.

    Will do, Derf! This is by far one of the better cities I've been to in China.

    Sorry, I meant to say Der. I can't edit the post on tapatalk for some reason.
