Blackbay 58
Took this shot today while admiring the scenery at La Perouse, Sydney.
I have both versions of the BB, because I like the design and heritage of it so much. The 58 is more sleek and almost wears small on my wrist. The standard version is chunkier, but just as nice, after comparing both of them. The only gripe about the standard version is the top-heaviness of the design. I am guilty of swapping between them a few times a day.
The leather strap’s deployant is inverted, like those found on Seiko watches, such that the loose end of the strap faces in.
Have not bought the bracelet yet, because it costs more than a grand and I am having second thoughts - won’t be using the bracelet for diving, rather, a good nato will be more suited for this purpose.
Have a wonderful year end and year beginning friends!

Yes the bracelet
It will totally change the look. Yes it is a cool summer here, maybe 19 degrees today at 10am. This summer is better than last summer which was plagued by scorching heat and blazing bushfires. I’ll find AUD$1050 to pay for it soon. It is so expensive comp...
Thanks Dave
Are u going fishing this season? I bumped into a GW Shark a few days ago while swimming in the beach. It was a baby, maybe 2.5m long. Amazing experience with nature’s apex predator.
Looks neat. Charming watch. Tfs. 👍
Wonderful picture, a BB 58 in its environment. Cheers. 🍻 Geross.
