Newest acquisition

I just got this in yesterday and love it! The bracelet it came with was extremely hard to resize, I am glad I bought a strap for it. Bracelet are not good on my hairy arms either way. The orfina/Porsche Design vibes on this are very high, this is the primary reason why I got this.

Interesting. I purchased one last Saturday. I haven’t yet received a shipping notification. It’s reassuring you are happy with yours.

Yes, I am extremely happy with it! I have actually just sent a message to them about the bracelet issue, hopefully mine is just a one off issue. I struggled for about 2 hours trying to resize it. Let’s see what they say. Apart from that it seems solid. I had heard about the wobbly crown in the past version, I can confirm this one is good.

Looks beautiful! I've had the product page as an open tab for the past week and looking for every reason not to buy it 😂

What is the problem? Is it the pin/screw or is there something else making it difficult to resize? I purchased an RZE watch that had a bent screw in one of the links that was incredibly difficult to remove.

I really like what Dan Henry is doing. Now that I have overcome my quartz phobia, I am going to take a closer look 👀

All of the pins are very hard to remove from the links.

Looks great!! I'm still on the fence on whether I need another watch in the stable, as my wife might start to describe me as a hoarder rather than a collector to her friends, lol! What's the lug width on this?

20mm, I know, I’m struggling to think that I need to get rid of some of mine… I actually just got another one today… send help!

That's very good information. Thanks for letting us know and please keep us posted on their response. This is a model that I'd prefer to keep on a bracelet, so I'm very interested to hear what they say.

They answered and said that yes they are very hard and that I should put some oil on it before trying to remove. But, I am not crazy, it has been the hardest pins to remove from any bracelet in my life. So I don’t think they understood. I also put wd40, and it didn’t help. Maybe I should do a video to show them.

That's unfortunate. Like this model as I may, sizing bracelets is my least favorite activity of thishobby and enough for me to seriously consider passing on this one until the problem has been resolved. It looks like I'll have to go with a Casio after all for my stealth watch...

Awesome! I was always apprehensive about the previous gen due to the movement issues but this looks amazing!

Got mine Monday and i love it! Wears smaller than a 41mm which is great. Sizing the bracelet was a pain .. you need to hammer the pins out, took a minute but totally worth it .. I'm sure my neighbors weren't that entertained where an hour of continuous hammering lol

1 gripe, the movement, I wish it was a mecaquartz! I'm not sure if mine is faulty, the chronograph pushers have a CLICKY feedback on START and RESET but a SOFT feedback on the STOP function which is odd, shouldn't all be CLICKY? can someone please confirm if their movement works the same way? Cheers!

I just ordered one as well! Can't wait for it to come in. Does the case size wear well?

Yep, mine is the same.

I believe it does wear very well, at least for me.

It’s super cool, must feel awesome on the wrist!

Enjoy and congrats 🍻
