Lou P

First impressions: It wears smaller than I thought a 40 mm with virtually no bezel would. Maybe because the lugs are so short, reducing the case's presence and increasing the bracelet/strap's travel across the wrist. Here next to a Mooncase for comparison. Focus on the lugs.

To make the lugs that short, there's a "divit" in the case to make clearance for the springbars! I kid you not!

The lume is cool and remains legible all night. Oddly enough, it looks really big when looking at the lume alone! Whatever illusion is going on disappears.

Luv the dome crystal, vertical symmetry. elegance, and simplicity. YaY!

Longbow

I just swapped out the original dark blue strap on my GM for a dark brown OEM Omega. I had expected them to be the same, but they are slightly different sizes on the 6 o'clock side. The 12 o'clock side are identical in length. This is what I measured on the 6 o'clock side:-

.............................GM Original vs Replacement OEM
S-Bar to 1st hole......40mm..................45mm
S-Bar to 2nd hole.....47mm..................52mm
S-Bar to 3rd hole......54mm..................59mm
S-Bar to 4th hole.......61mm.................66mm

I had the original strap on the 4th hole, so the replacement is either tight at 59mm or loose at 66mm.

Looking a bit closer at both straps I see that one is marked 62, the other 65. I had expected that the "65" would simply be longer, but it actually has a different start point for the 1st hole, not just a bit of extra length at the tip.

Can you check the hole to spring bar distance? Would be interested to know how it compares.
