So true. I always considered mine a no date because I can't ever see the date.

Don't really love the black bracelet on this, so I've been trying various straps from my drawer. I did order a nato with pvd hardware but I think I really need an isofrane, since that was always the go to on my U1s. For now an old nato.

Yes, either Isofrane with black buckle or a single pass Zulu with black hardware. Nato kinda seems to bulky to me these days.

So far so good. It wears a little larger than it's 41mm, which I like. The high dome crystal is very cool and doesn't distort the dial. At first, the 16mm lugs appear odd looking on a case this size, but visually they now seem to fit the watch well. The strap is a little flimsy, but holds the watch to your wrist securely, and is very comfortable.

Isofranes with dlc buckle are up to $149 now, which was a little bit of a shock. If I kept watches forever I wouldn't care but.. I don't mind this on nato since the watch itself is so thin. But the silver hardware looks bad.

Hey BODs!

Still alive, very busy the last couple of months with new position @ work plus buying/renovating a house. Hope everyone is doing great!

No watch movements except selling my regular Arnie for this one.

Cheers!
