I got mine for $3232 but AAFES only had the rubber strap version for sale then. It was a 24 hour 20% additional discount on selected watches. I put mine on an Uncle Seiko flat link.

The flatlink looks great - might have to try this...

Can’t recommend Uncle Seiko enough, bracelets look great and are made well.

Obviously he’s running a business and aims to do well, but the products he offers indicate to me that he must also really love watches and the hobby. He saw an opportunity to enjoy his passion, fulfill a gap in the market and I hope make a decent living

Want to join this great thread 😀



But i must say i sold the OEM steel bracelet as it was too bulky for my taste. I wear it on the rubber most oft the time as it just feels great and is the best combo imho

To each its own, as long as you enjoy, for me wearing this watch on rubber is like when I'm wearing my Garmin watch or my Casio

I too love the rubber strap. Very light and comfortable.

I do feel the blue dial looks better on some form of steel, the blue rubber is almost too much blue for my taste.

All other dial variants look best on their respective rubber straps to my eyes

That's the beauty of tastes, I'll take bracelet over rubber 99% of the time, I get that rubber is more comfy, but this is luxury, and looks it's also very important to me

I enjoy mine. I have the chronograph version. I use it as a travel watch esp in places I'm not familiar with and I like to be around beach areas like PV, Mexico where im in the water a lot. From a technical perspective its incredible for the price. The ceramic dial, bezel, pushers, sapphire front and back, 9900 metas. It's a far nicer watch than a sub and far better movement. The bracelet is high quality but wish it were tapered, I think it works better on the larger 9900 version. love the micro adjustments of the band. I got the Omega rubber strap but it was too thin etc for the thick 9900 version and no deployment buckle.

Beautiful, I have had mine for almost two weeks and am completely in love. I just added the AT strap.
Looks great, better than the smp rubber strap.
