WRUW 26 August 20

Post by Captdave » Wed Aug 26, 2020 5:00 am

This since hiking on rainier Monday. I put the PO in a safe and now can’t get it open. Been that kind of couple days. Got woken up by my sister calling at 0530 to let me know that her 32 year old son had passed away unexpectedly in Okinawa. On my way home from an all night job. Time for some sleep, it’s been 24 hours.

That’s a great looking matte blue!

If it had an adjustable clasp I’d want that watch.

Agree, very nice looking, nice size. Strangely, the rubber strap does have an adjustable ratcheting clasp. Be a tough choice between this and the orange version.

@hoppyjr

Thanks both.
The watch overall is super nice and quality is very good. Finish too. Even the bracelet is great, fully articulated. But the one area that stands out and feels subpar vs the rest is the clasp. It’s impressive and average. The déployant atm is fine, solid and well polished but the bottom visible part feels more flimsy if that makes sense. I also wish it had some sort of quick adjustment mechanism

I’m going to source the rubber strap as I think it makes for a fantastic combo.
