You're not alone in feeling that way. A lot of people don't care for the gap.

Honestly, the Marathon bracelet with the solid end links is very nice looking but I don't mind the gap with thw Watchadoo. It is far less noticeable (under normal lighting conditions) than in the wrist shot posted above.

Besides that, the lumpy Watchadoo gives the TSAR the 'tool' look I want on this piece. I didn't want to dress it up with the oyster (aside from the ridiculous price). The Watchadoo is a solid, well made bracelet at 1/3 the cost.

It's also a plus when they're one of the few companies that still uses Tritium dials!



Actually, there's quite a few: Traser, Luminox, Ball, and the Uzi and Smith & Wesson brands, off the top of my head. All use tritium tubes.

(mmmm.....tuuuuubes......)

I have a 2004 contract SAR and, at that time, the bracelet was included. I had it sized and have never used it. It makes the watch just too heavy. I'm actually thinking of ordering the USDOD clasp for it just to have it as mine has the original maple leaf clasp.

I wear it either on a two ring black Zulu or a Di Modell Imperator with a deployant. Good, sturdy watch.

For those who haven't seen it, here's a nice set of photo comparisons between the Submariner and the SAR: http://countycomm.com/rolsar.htm

No pics, but I have this:
Malvern Automatic Black Faced Mens Watch

Dress watch as I cannot get away with anything too "different". But might pick up another one now for casual wearing. Really cool thing is you can see the Automatic movement mechanism on the back of the dial. A small pic in the link shows it

Looking at that really nice Police Twingear I am cursing discovering this part of the forum. Need to read through entire threads about sunglasses, watches and manbags...

Never owned a watch or ever felt the need for one cause I live in a timeless buble. It'll be more of a fasion wear then anything else. If I ever pull the triger, that is. Starving students shouldn't buy this kind of ****

I know it's all about personal taste...I am trying hard to see what it is about this "Police" watch you guys like so much. I've had cars with smaller dashboards than that thing.

I found one high street stockist of the Twingear so I'll have a look-see in person but I'm not sure its that big. My Malvern Automatic is 38mm and you can definitely get bigger diameter dress watches but then its not small,...
But on my wrist any bigger would look out of place. I'm on the first notch on the strap so that might say something

Its all the running I do to blame
