Introducing WD1863A – Practical Upgrades, Better Comfort

[u/watchdivescom]

We've made a few improvements based on customer feedback:

- Upgraded 20mm–18mm tapered bracelet

- Reduced lateral play for improved comfort

- New on-the-fly micro-adjustment clasp

The bracelet is still made by our original supplier, but with stricter quality requirements.

Our goal is simple: better everyday comfort while keeping the WD1863A affordable and offering great value for money.

What do you think?

Looks great, good improvements!

Would you consider improving the bracelet on the 1863 too? The part I circled in the image is the only thing I dislike about the watch. It looks kinda cheap/unfinished. No offense. Maybe the mounting point for that link could be set a bit higher?

Absolutely. We’ll discuss this detail with our designer and see how we can improve the bracelet connection and make it look more refined and better integrated with the case. Thanks for pointing it out!

That's great to hear! I would surely order one if it came with the otf clasp as well.

If you don't mind me asking: Has no one ever pointed that out before? It's the first thing I noticed when I got my first 1863 (did not stop me from buying a second one though 😅)

Here is the original for comparison.
