Tortuga that is...a few Iphone pics until I get a chance to use the camera. Mark did an excellent review above, and I'll never take a better picture than Oscarsubtlelaugh.gif so do a froum search.

I knew this dial configuration appealled to me, but even more so in the flesh. Haven't had a chance o play wit the bezel changer, but will, and plan on trying a mesh on this one. If there is any negative so far...I mounted the watch on the leather strap...great quality and look but please Micro brand makers....make 'em longer, this one just fits.

Couple pics:

Thumbsup3.gifNice pickup, really digging that version with the alternative bezel.


And I completely agree on the strap length.  I'm on the next to last notch on the rubber strap for my Tortuga.

Nice Tortuga  ThumbsUp02.gif

I have my Tortuga on mesh too and think it's the probably the best combination in terms of strap choice (IMO) ... gives it a very classic look to it.

Little snug.

Is that mesh a polished or brushed finish?

Big Congrats, Tony. It's a very good choice. I'll chime in with the rest....mesh looks really appropraite given the flash to the past.

Looks like it's really Helson week on 3T.

Enjoy the Tortuga in good health for a very long time, amigo
