I hope you end up keeping the mighty green goblin. Love when you share photos of it and I remember how gorgeous it was in person


Well since Charlie only made a derisory offer of £1200 I guess I will have to keep it. Eye.

Stunning make over, the bracelet makes it look like a brand new even cooler watch. Good thing you can now enjoy actually wearing it. I can kind of relate to the feeling. As you know, I wasn't wearing my red bull much cause I put it on some shitter leather straps. Now back on bracelet this weekend and it is a pure joy to wear, plus it looks killer again

Thanks for trying out the bracelet for the rest of us, so good to know it's an option that's definitely worth considering. 👍
It is an oddity of the watch world that I'm completely satisfied with the original fiber/iron supplied strap. I will switch to the bracelet in almost every other case. But this one agrees with me and fits perfectly with no tilting outward on the wrist as other straps always do. I do agree on the strap loop retainers. I've removed the second loop (Right after your Captain Obvious advice on how to do so) but still find the primary loop a bit of a potentially dangerous scratching dagger. A smoothly rounded one would be strap perfection for me on this one. Thanks again for the great review AGman!

Indeed it does. If I could find one that I thought was genuine I'd probably buy one....

You must have wrists of steel - hahaha. The OG strap looks great, and if you can get on with it then good on you. But whoever designed those loops needs a kick up the arse.

It is really, really dumb that TAG will not officially tell you whether a bracelet will fit a watch that it was never sold on though. Why is that even a problem?

Would this FT8028 strap also fit your orange F1? 😉

Great photo, but I need to see a photo of the bike too please?

I love that the battery will last until you're 69! I cant even imagine being that insanely old 😝 will you even be able to use the internet or put on a watch without a nurse at that age bro
