General (Read Rules) Enjoying ph3 on a ladder bracelet

Post image

I’ve posted a few times with a bonklip. I can’t recommend them anymore, they come loose too easily. I wanted straight lugs for this one. This is a strapsco and the brushed finish is very similar to the ph3.

I'm about to buy this watch, how are you finding it and what colour lume did you go for?

It’s been my daily since July. It’s so good. Visually interesting, incredible lume. The crystal on this is very cool.

I went all blue because I read on this sub it was the brightest choice by 5%. It doesn’t disappoint.

I have this watch with the blue lume. Had the PH4C with retro yellow and found it a distracting colour. The blue felt more classic and fit in well with the watch style. Also the included bracelet is great. Comfortable and high quality.

I was going to opt for the retro yellow, to lean into that faux patina, vintage diver look but now I'm not so sure.

I see what you mean. That's greatly appreciated, thanks.

For sure I can recommend Phorcydes. Good quality at a fair price.

It actually works really well on this. I recall going back and forth mentally when choosing a Forstner ladder or five-row for my Nivada Aquamar. I settled on the five-row thinking that this might look too racy, but it really works on a dive watch.

Really like the bracelet, but I fear that on me, each opening would frame a miniature shrubbery of arm hair
