How long have you had it? Initial thoughts on wearing it?
It'll soon be a year and it's become my favorite Speedmaster 🥰 I have only one issue with the watch and that's the fact that the bracelet, much like the (former) production's, has very limited expansion. I once put the watch on, went out in the Summer heat, wanted to show it to a friend and could barely get it off my wrist, lol... 😜
But other than that... it's pure awesomeness! Happy SpeedyTuesday 😉
Wonderful. I finally acquired one and it should be arriving soon. My fiancé suggests that I wait until our wedding date to wear it.
I'm pretty convinced that the price of these is going to steadily increase.

On this bracelet, a warning for the those whose hands are large relative to their wrist size
the clasp itself isn’t very long, which means that when open the bracelet aperture has expanded only 3x that clasp’s short length, which isn’t a whole lot. I have decently large hands (relative to my 7 3/4+ wrists), and so it requires a bit of a tuck and squeeze to get the open bracelet over the widest part of the hand.
if my hand-to-wrist ratio were just a bit more weighted toward the hand size, I’d probably have a hard time using this bracelet.
So, if you have smaller wrists (needing the bracelet sized down to fit) compared to your larger hand size, you might consider this slight fitment oddity of the NEW321 bracelet.
