I just molested the PI set of red sardine last nite @ K2. The day wheel is in ENG/SPANISH.

Thanks for all the butties here who shared so much and "poisoned" me deep deep. End up, settled for this piece, my first diver watch.

Leather strap is from K2. Brand is Paros. Colour is a bit darker than the shroud.

Thanks CEO!

I have an idea which I'm not sure if it's worth it to do. Does it make sense to get deployment buckle from otto frei and use it with this leather strap?

Actually it's not really a preference thing though but more of like want to "experiment" a bit as never used deployment buckle before. In other words, backside itchy.

Only saw it on a cartier before and was impressed by it. I saw it in action for a thinner leather strap. Not sure if this will work for this thick strap and how it will turn out for this watch.

If pocket feel deep enough, will probably hunt for a bronze/gold tone deployment buckle that will fit this strap to experiment.

Went down today to see if he had the red version too, unfortunately out of stock. Thought my wallet was safe. Then I saw the brown one T_T. The price was really really attractive. Lol

Hi all, nice pics and I'm tempted to get one of the chocolate one. Are these limited editions individually numbered and from what I read, there are k & j versions of each color, Meaning there's more than 1300 produced?
