·Cool, but be careful where you buy it from. This is one of those the fakers love to make.

·Sorry, I don’t follow Rolex closely enough to know what is in or out of production, but I do like their MOP offerings. All the men’s Tag MOPs also look great!
Agree that some Tags look better than other brands. Speaking of which, I’ve been close to pulling the trigger on another Aquaracer, WBD2111…
That one is very enticing, I agree. It’s at Bicester for £1,650 presently, if that’s any use?
Apologies if you’re not in the UK.

·Hello all, just wondering if anyone has the newly released GMT Aquaracer and what your thoughts might be on it? I don't see much discussion of it here. This is probably my favourite variant of the Aquaracer, principally because of the flashy bezel I must admit. I have a small wrist but I go against the grain and generally prefer watches in the 41-43mm range. I'm just wondering if the Aquaracer does wear that bit smaller than the 43mm would suggest? Lug to lug is 49mm I believe which is slightly less than the "luggiest watch" I have (SMP 300m). Rubber strap option is cheaper and I gather must be cut to size, so trying to decide whether it is worth the extra to get it on bracelet. I know the buy it on bracelet rule, but I do like the look of the rubber strap.

·Are you referring to the Blue and White one released around a year ago?
If so, I was drawn to it but ultimately chose the Orange non GMT version, after being torn between them. I don’t think many people are a fan of the White on the bezel, but it’s your choice at the end of the day. I personally really like it, but I just liked the Orange dial more.
As for strap vs bracelet, mine came with the bracelet and feels great on. Rubber strap does look particularly great on that GMT though, which would probably have been my choice on that model.

·Thanks, I wasn't being lazy just wondering if there were any owners opinions.

·I was excited about it, until I actually saw it... and I quickly went off it. A lot of it comes down to your feelings about the blue/white bezel, if you like it then great..

·B bendanukI know an old post but does anyone know if this strap is available separately? If not an orange rubber strap recommendation for the aquaracer 300?

Another option being a Tropic type strap which look cool too, if not a truly fitted option:

·Not an orange one, but the official black one might look cool. I toyed with that for mine and did this mock up before if that’s any help.

·Thanks for the replies, it’s more expensive than I thought and the clasp isn’t always included from what I could find online! Also seems it’s a non standard 21.5mm size so alternatives won’t fit perfectly

·22mm should fit fine, I sometimes will use a 22mm strap on a 21mm gap with no issues in look. Rubber is very pliable and easy to fit.
