And what did you buy today ?

Well spotted, it’s actually 21 mm. Erika has odd sizes too, so I ordered it with my wrist size and 1 mm extra width. In hindsight 20 mm would have been better.

I hate when you can see springbars when the strap is just a bit too narrow. That has happened to me especially with Zulus, so later on I always ordered them one size wider.

I thought that with stretching strap some safety margin would be needed, but it seems that Erika’s straps are a perfect fit without this kind of precaution.

Amazing the eyes for things we can develop as watch enthusiasts--I can see a 1mm difference on a watch strap, but am oblivious to so many other things in normal daily life.

My first watch of 2019 (arrives Saturday - I'll fetch it from the package locker on Monday)

I've been stalking this one since it first appeared. This one has the solid back (which I prefer). Replacement strap. Seller pix.

Always loved that dial. As I recall it’s a pretty big piece. Quite a nice start to the year!

I really dig them, too. IIRC they're 38.5mm.
