    If the 12 o'clock side wasn't shorter it would have been perfect.


    Christ , that really is tiny. I could understand if you had larger than average wrists but that looks like you are going to cut your circulation off!!

    Ignore that, they sent one regular and one short. The regular is fine, good job I bought two now.

    Decent quality but what I'd really love is a 20mm DAL1BP.

    😂 was going to say it looks like you had received a short length version.

    Hoping mine comes tomorrow and thanks for the picture. Visually better than I was expecting.

    Ive got a Zuludiver 284 rubber on mine. Its a 22mm version and trimmed it down as I like a slightly wider looking strap at the lug end.

    All of the above is good advice but personally, I found it far too heavy.
    I always new it was there clunking about.

    Sold it twice as a result.

    Gutted, as the styling is perfect IMO and I am a bit of a seiko fanboy

    Exactly the same experience for me. And I'm still tempted by another!

    Here is the new one on the 22mm isofrane:




    It’s so much more balanced on the wrist on the slightly wider strap, I’m sure it’s not to everyone’s taste but you can hardly noticed it’s pinched at the lugs when you are wearing it.

    It does look a little odd when not on the wrist, but it looks much better when it's on the wrist. It definitely suits the watch!
