No time for actual camera pictures, but a quick iPhone shot on my ABP brown ostrich strap...LOVE how understated the watch is and the size of the Ultra-Thin is perfect.

Was just looking for fun at beginning of this thread and I saw this. It is so awesome! Do you still have it since it's many years ago you posted this?
This is in response to the BigP dissing of today... Here's some not-so-unwanted attention!

Such a shame that they got rid of that design.

The old one looked great.

^ Agreed. The 5002 looks much better than what has followed it. Same can be said for the MkXV, Aquatimer 3536 and Inge 3227, IMO.

I think Di-Modell is slightly better than Hirsh - the croc ages a more nicely.
I got an ABP shark strap for my 111 but didn't like it. The edge finishing was pretty amateurish.


+1 on Di-Modell. Even with their recent price increases. The Aero lining is definitely good if you sweat.

Surprised you had trouble with ABP. Never heard anything but good things about them.
