Im not crazy about the case. Even with a leather band it would be too ornamental for my taste.

If I ever get my gun safe installed, I'll put it in there . . . .

I don't mind the bracelet, but I don't like it with that bezel. On a plainer case/bezel combination I think it could look good.

I would put an Alligator strap on that watch and wear it, its a Patek Phillipe for gods sake!

I would contact someone at a Hamilton Jewelers and see if the bezel could be changed.

Thats only what I would do, but i'd be proud to inherit such a watch!

+1. Makes the watch looks fake.

I don't mind the aforementioned "bling factor" but I'm not the biggest fan of that bracelet. I like this Patek's bracelet better
