I've ordered the steel GMT model for the price it's a great deal imo. I'll probably change the strap to a racing strap with red details to make the watch look a bit more sporty. Currently checking out either the Hirsch Ayrton, Robby or Carbon as an option (see pics)
RobDropI haven't received mine yet but it looks like the bar is screwed in through one side like on Panerais. I'll probably ask the watch shop where I'll buy the strap to change it for me.
k0ndomoYup, it’s a screw bar. Real pain. My pet peeve is a waterproof watch with a leather band. So I changed it to a silicon racing type band like the OP. Just a great looking watch that keeps great time. Obviously not a premium piece but certainly has the feel and looks of one.
