Take your time cutting that strap! I had my first experience cutting a rubber strap with my Delugs CTS. They give you an extra strap in case you mess up and they do provide 2 adjustment holes on each side of the clasp, but it's still a little unnerving as you're cutting, refitting, testing, and cutting some more!
Going to take my time; may do this over a few days to avoid cutting too much.
Measure twice, cut once. Mattcandothis
Love that lume dial, Matt.

Thanks, good advice.
I'm going to work toward an acceptable "loose" fit.

Congrats!
Ever since you posted this I’ve been researching it and watching videos on it. I can’t believe I haven’t tried it since it was released in 2003 (black dial). This full lume dial is the way to go. I’d love to try it eventually .
Keep us up to date on how you like it! I’ve heard the time keeping is amazing with MGs modifications.

I like that a lot. The red's sexy, with lines like a European sports car. Nice addition!

Does the lume last a long time? I know it has to be strong, but can you see it the next morning if charged at night?

I had this same model years ago and the lume was one of the best in the biz.
