Congrats to Kiamat just got the news he is the lucky owner of the "prototype" piece.  :Dancing_banana:

So let this be the thread for the owners to post when they receive the watch.

And let the other thread be about review only.

Yes, brother! Just to try how the watch feel on a rubber strap. It is really of good quality and pleasantly comfortable on the wrist. :thumbsup:

Check in for me  ;D
My initial comment, all straps like Chris said diff thickness and seems to be from different cow.
Although the holes position look similar or same, fitting is totally different !

I had to punch a hole in between 1st and 2nd to make it fit better.
And my strap seems to be thickest of all. Harder to strap it on as quite tight.

I will let Danny show his SPECIAL strap  ;D

I find the rubber strap far more comfortable.

Anyway, many thanks to Chris for all his efforts. Hopefully, there will be more of similar MWF watch projects in the near future....

The rubber strap is really comfortable, I tried on it for awhile for the very first day. But, the leather is not too bad either, just need some time to break in and it will be good too. :thumbsup:

However, did anyone change from rubber to leather again? It is a bit of difficult to change back to leather. The lug screw doesn't seems to get back to the hole easily like on a PAM (I think the cause of it is that the lug hole on the handmade strap is too big?). Any tips guys? :Cheers:
