SBD 3T WIS
|
Stumbled upon this Ritmo Indycar chrono and felt that it had a sporty look that my watch drawer currently lacks. It's a well-kept secret that SBD is a bit of a car nut (I've got other forums I troll for this addiction) so this watch had instant appeal for me. Indy isn't my favorite form of racing (though I do enjoy an occasional race...and Danica ain't bad either), but I like everything else about the design. The 22mm tire-tread rubber strap is appropriate, but I'd like to replace it with something black with red stitching. If you got any ideas, post them up! I don't care if it's leather, rubber, ostrich, gator, sailcloth, or whatever. If you think it would look sporty with this, feel free! And now, my meager pix: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() movement: Swiss Ronda 5040B case: 46.5 mm steal dial: real carbon fiber with inset subdials crystal: not sure, but I see purple AR treatment at certain angles lugs: 22mm |

That sure is a racy looking piece. I have to agree with Hucky... a phat strap would balance the watch head more and really set it off. Enjoy!:D |

Definitely a racey one. I like the red anodized rings on the crown and pushers. hand6.gif |

Good suggestions regarding the strap width. It's definitely a bit of a brick and could use a heftier strap. Also the blingiest watch I own by far. :P:P:P |

![]() Hey, as you guys mentioned, the pushers sort of look like those Aeroquip fittings used on race (or certain modified street) cars. ;) I just happen to have a few of them laying around for a project I'm working on, so I took a few snaps with them. ![]() ![]() ![]() Hope you enjoy these. For bonus points: Can you tell me what size and type these fittings are? ![]() |
