I realize this combo is a bit of an anachronism, but I like it anyway.
hello komfit and 38mm Speedmaster.
Since today I am wearing also one.

·Has anyone taken theirs off after a week or two and seen if it is scratching the insides of the lugs? I have the horned version and it seems to scratch outside of where the dots would cover. Granted two of my dots feel of while wearing. Interested in what others are experiencing.

·if you cannot overcome some rational OCD, use a bit of painters tape. You pick the color.👍

·Got mine today.
Looks great and feels great but it seems more stiff than the original bracelet. I wonder if is due to the construction or to the fact that is new.
min any case, nicely done!

·I understand the appeal for these bands, however personally I just cant see past the gap between the lugs and the general thin size. Would be cool if it was a fitted curved end and tapered from a 20mm down to a 16mm or something... albeit far more non-traditional.

·I ordered one of these the other day. I just found this thread. During reading it notice a few complaints scratching the lugs was sort of expecting that due to I read the same with Kiefer-Cadman expandro that were issued for the Jungans Bund chronograph had a few issues due to the lugs that never stopped me using them just not all the time. One thing about Junghans a soft metal case.
The expandro are comfortable hoping this is to when I put it on my speedy. Will use those protectors that stick to the lugs and see how they work. Got the horn end one wonder if you could file it down had to do that with the expandro to fit so less scratching of the case if I notice it doing that.

·Well ordered it Thursday got it on Monday fast shipping. Ordered the longer length got about a 7 inch wrist was lucky just enough to adjust it with a little room. So if you got a smaller wrist than 7 inches order the smaller length or it won't fit will be to long with the longer length band.

·I wasn't sure about the gap left between the end piece and the case but I still went for it and I'm glad I did.

·Hello! I’m the owner of Forstner Bands. Thanks so much for finding us! I’d be happy to answer any questions you have about the JB bracelet that’s incoming.
To answer a couple that I saw here, we indeed are making a curved end version. It likely will be available within a month or two after the straight end version (which itself is about 2 months out). We have a few other things in the pipeline as well.
If you’ve seen the site, you can probably tell that this is a sort of hybrid between the Komfit, and the JB Champion - trying to merge the best of both into one.
Speaking of, the photos posted above are in fact pictures of the actual bracelet (not a mock-up or anything like that). We spent a lot of time working to get it right, and we are really pumped that it’s done.
Shoot me a message if you have any questions or reply to the thread. I’ll try to keep up!
