    Strange coincidence, just logged on to post this!

    Had this one getting on for 20 years, Xmas prezzie from my partner who passed in 2011.

    Lovely watch Roy and your late partner had great taste.... Bang for buck I truly doubt you can beat a Citizen divers watch.... Cheaper Seiko divers in the same price range don't cut it though I have a 007 hanging around...

    I can't argue about her inimitable taste obviously . It was a genuine surprise that Xmas.

    My love of watches makes it easy for me to buy for and although my current partner told me she wasn't really that bothered about watches she was over the moon when I got her this.

    Kerching... I'm lucky as my lady only wears mens watches (other than the Citizen which is always on my wrist) she wears all the others more than I do...

    When I see well dressed feminine women wearing a mans watches (more seen in France) I'm like "you go girl..."

    Got her a mid-size Datejust for Xmas but she prefers her Tag.

    Love that Citizen Roy,
    Looked at that when I was picking up my SKX’s.

    Speaking of which, this weeks “Lockdown wear”, the 009J on a Crafter Blue rubber strap.

    Letting go and relaxing

    I changed the ND type strap on this SRPA83K1 because it was a bit hard and ungiving, the Archer silicone is a lot more comfortable.

    Never got on with the stock SKX strap, tried it a while but not so much.

    You just "know" when the watch / strap combo works for you.
    Had it on Nato's, leather Rally's but this is the only one that is made to fit in with the curve of the case, a small detail that makes such a big difference.

    Of the watch's I have, this is my top 3 - more cost doesn't make a better watch
    Love some of your Invicta's man.

    Next to the SKX is my 116519L Oysterflex...its sentimental too...and that has the same watch/strap synergy.

    Whatever your in the mood for on that day.

    Yes, really like my Invictas (most don't). Even got the dive cases for them.
