Three straps and no excuses
By Hannah Lindqvist, Stockholm ·
The Overseas comes with a bracelet, a rubber strap and a leather strap, and you swap them without tools. That's the feature that makes it the most practical of the big-name integrated luxury watches. Bracelet for the city, rubber for summer on the boat, leather for dinner.
The rest is very good too. 150 m, 60 hours from the in-house 5100, a blue dial and the half Maltese cross links on the bracelet.
Then I hold the numbers up to my wrist. 41 mm. 11 mm. 22 mm lugs on an integrated case. It's a big watch for my arm. On rubber it would be lighter and more wearable, and that's the strap I'd live on.
26,500 dollars and up is normal for this tier. If your wrist can take it, I'd choose this over a Royal Oak because of the straps and the slightly softer looks. Mine can't, really.
