Hey Guys thank you so much for the kind words, I really like it! I would love one day to own the Panda dial 35th anniversary model but I am super happy with this one. I am finding my way back to 40-42mm watches and really feel that 42mm is my sweet spot in the winter with coats and long sleeves. I do enjoy a bigger watch in the summer time and 44mm seems to be my summertime size! I will have to try a few straps and Will has helped me with a nice velcro nasa strap but this one really seems built for the bracelet in came on! I also learned so much about the space program researching the history of this model so that was added fun with this purchase.
Thanks again! thankyou.gif

That's a heck of a watch, Trent. Happy to know the team at 3T had a part in this.

Enjoy it in good health for a long time amigo.

You're welcome Trent! The velcro makes it very light to wear. Since I don't have the bracelet, I wear mine mostly on Kevlar: It's more comfortable than the velcro in fact. I may try a nato later on, found it good looking on olive-drab nato...
