............And mine this morning 馃榾
I read lots of negative remarks about the 300M bracelet so I thought I ought to toss in some positive ones as I love the bracelet. In my opinion, it is a mechanical marvel. The complexity and number of the links make it fit my wrist really well without it becoming loose feeling like a Rolex Jubilee. Moreover, the micro adjustment is superb, the diver's expansion link works with a snap rather than a tug. and the solid end links fit perfectly without scratching the area between the lugs. I also like the 300M bracelet without the taper because it imparts an air of sturdiness to what is a tool watch. In conclusion, I've looked at many of the after market alternatives and find that the that they don't compare to the stock 300M bracelet. I also don't want to make my 300M into a "frankenwatch" by adding a lesser quality aftermarket alternative bracelet that may scratch my beautiful watch between the lugs.
I agree about the bracelet. A lot of fuss made about the fact that it doesn鈥檛 taper...don鈥檛 get it myself.
Walking around with this watch on in the sunlight and seeing the dial and bezel change tone and colors based on the different types of lighting that hits it is just so satisfying. Just wanted to share my shots from lunchtime today 馃榾

Does anybody else have a badly-rattling diver鈥檚 extension in the clasp? Perhaps mine has a defect, or maybe it鈥檚 supposed to rattle. I鈥檝e had the watch for about 5 weeks and it hasn鈥檛 been abused.

Be careful with that, mine rattled a ton when I got it and hadn't been abused and then one day I was standing in my house (thankfully) and my watch just fell off and it snapped right at where the divers extension is connected to the bracelet.
I brought it to my local OB and they were able to use my warranty so I wasn't charged, but I did bring the clasp with me.
