Overall it’s high quality and I don’t regret it. My two complaints are the male endlinks and the buckle. The buckle is high quality but has 6 micro adjust holes which just means it’s bigger and heavier than it needs to be. The male endlinks also unnecessarily make the watch wear a little bit bigger. I sorta knew these both going into it but I really wanted an oyster bracelet. If you want jubilee or bracelet then I wouldn’t hesitate to get an uncle seiko.

Thanks for the info! Just noticed strapcode now sell an inverted end link version of their Alpinist oyster. Hope you had/have a great time in Melbourne!

I didn’t know about the new inverted endlinks, I just sent strapcode an email to see if I can buy them without getting a whole new bracelet, thanks for letting me know! And I’ve been loving my time in Melbourne!
