The Clerc Hydroscaph H1 Watch Now On A Bracelet
Clerc?just recently released a new version of their excellent entry-level Hydroscaph H1 chronometer diver (you can see our review here). ?So what makes this model noteworthy? ?Primarily, it's the bracelet, which is something we've not seen on the the line before.From what I've been able to ascertain, the bracelet continues on with the same focus on comfort, courtesy the articulating lugs. I personally like how it seems to carry on both the brushed finishes, as well as the bevels, that we see in the top bezel (and, for that matter, the indices on the dial as well).While the bracelet will likely serve to enhance the boldness of the piece (read: ?a big watch just got a bit bigger), the lines of the bracelet look to be a perfect complement to the overall looks of the Hydroscaph.This new edition also tones things down a bit on the dial front, with more of a midnight blue taking center stage , with a lighter blue minute hand paired to a grey hour hand. ?This may not necessarily be of benefit

I'm in a bit of trouble...
My AD just got a Rubberclad in, latest version bien sure with black datewheel, updated numerals etc. My inclination has been to find the right time to pick up a 15202, but this, needless to say, makes for a better daily driver.Oh well, choices...

2 Questions about ADs selling to Grays....
disclaimer: I buy/support from both AD and Gray and am simply curious about 2 things. Grays get a few hot models from ADs even while ADs have waiting lists for said hot models.....1) Why would an AD sell to a Gray over a customer?. Moving out non hot models I get, but say Daytonas for example that have waiting lists yet grays have them. (or SS Its in the future)2) If ADs are nervous about selling to a customer who might flip the watch (contracts, etc) why sell to a Gray that will, as is their right, flip the watch?

My 116520...
Reading more about the watch I'm wearing..making me think of just keeping it a little longer..prices on all SS Daytonas are on the upward trend..
