    Possibly inappropriate, so feel free to delete if so, but my Yobokies Seiko pilot mod has been collecting dust since I picked up my Stowa Flieger. It's running a bit fast, but any watch tech should be able to regulate it. Any interest?

    Ditto. I have one of these little gems from Yobokies that is not seeing much use since I found a XW Tsunami. I'd love for somebody from V'Salon to have it. If there is more interest out there hit me with a PM, yo.

    That's awesome. I was wearing a similar green NATO strap on my dive watch yesterday. Love the look.

    Was never really into NATO style until I saw them on PVD watches.. love how it's so minimal and the bands are inexpensive so you can change accordingly !

    They're also really comfortable. I wear them all through the summer and keep the steel bracelet for when they weather is cooler. I've even some on really classic dress watches that look great.

    I've settled on a Maratac Pilot full-sized as my daily wear, so I'm going to be selling my mid-sized Pilot. It's the pre-2013 style with the pointer at 12:00; used but in excellent condition; will come with a few bands.

    Figured I'd throw it out there to VSalon first. Let me know if you're interested.

    Thanks for the interest folks. The Yobokies is headed to a new home.

    Love modded 007 and 009 Seiko's. And almost all of mine sport a NATO strap.

    Not sure this fits the affordable class but what the heck it's nice looking:

    Diver, Fulcrum (1001) - Fulcrum - Professional Series



    New version of the LRRP. I like my LRRP but its still too big so looking at the mid-size Omega.... These MkII pieces are very nice though.

    Can move this the "not so affordable" watches if desired :-)

    I love my LRRP as well. I've got huge wrists so mine looks a tad small. I really wish MKII would offer something with the IIA face again.

    Anyone else seen the DLC Seafighter on Ebay? Mmmmm tasty.

    Surprised nobody brought up Glycine (unless I missed it). I have this one. Unlike many large watches which are only large for style, the Glycine is large for a reason; the movement is a stop watch movement and requires the real estate. This one can be purchased for under $700. glycine.jpg

    I had one of these. The strap got all crusty with salt; it never occurred to me to wash the thing.

    I'm considering one of these:
