Thanks, Kostas! yeah same here. It's an interesting movement, indeed! Not sure why this guy is not widely discussed but I am loving it so far! 😍

Hey - Thanks again for pointing me to the right direction @Urkraft! Loving this little guy. Question about the that screw-down crown. I meant, that onion shape crown is kind of slippery (because of my sausage fingers?) and it's difficult to press down to reach the groove of the first thread. Are you having the same experience??

Edit: Like your collection of straps pairing with this guy as well! Mind sharing where you source that #jubileebracelet? It looks BUSINESS!

Thank you, Tony! I think it's only logical since I stalked on other's #wruw daily...not good for collection consolidation 😂

Yeah, its kind of a hassle if you got wet or greasy fingers, but with dry fingers I get it to work well. But I get it to thread pretty easily, better than on my other screw down crown watch ( I have 2).

I can look up the link from somewhere but its actually a very cheap ali bracelet for less than $10 I believe 😆 It doesnt go perfect with the case since there is a small gap, but it looks very good if you dont mind it 👍🏻

Thanks for the link my friend! I do have a Aliexpress bracelet lying around and unfortunately the gaping holes are a bit unmanageable 🤣

So I guess the search must go on!!
