OEM strap was a reddish-brown alligator. Wanted to wear it more often so I dressed it down with a blue FKM CTS rubber.

Thanks for sharing. The content I miss most since leaving the other place is watch content. And these were easily my favorite among the many unobtainable watches that would get posted.

Seriously, after leaving the other place, it’s just been me and my watches. It was just a month ago that I got to interact with another watch enthusiast. It was not so much by chance as it was the fact that I went to a boutique to send my watch for service.

Is for Power reserve indicator. shows how much power has left.

To add to roserose’s comment, the power reserve is extra useful because this is a manual wound watch, not an automatic.
