Tried 3 Natos from Crown and Buckle, trying to decide my favourite. So far I like the navy and white the best. Orange is cool too. Sand I’m not so sure.

Case and filter came in for my Royale so I’m very happy!

Found it in a hard off and couldn’t walk away… I probably overpaid for the condition it’s in, but I’m happy.

Reminds me of that weird PS3 controller concept or those old Nike watches from back in the good ol’ days.

First Orient, first automatic. Forgive me for the open heart, it was too mesmerizing to resist.

TLDR: Title + 21mm lugs

Looking to get my first automatic and I think I’ve decided on a bambino (so original). Im having a hard time picking a version and colour cause they all look so good. At first I wasn’t considering an open heart because I feel it ruins the simplicity/elegance of it, but considering this will likely be my only mechanical watch for a few years I wouldn’t mind peeking inside, and the bronze ish colour works the best imo.

Unfortunately it only comes in 40.5 afaik which means 21mm strap. What are the common straps people go to in this size? I like the stock strap but would want something to dress down as well.
