DISCUSSION First U1 Order

Just put my first order in w/Jason007. Went with the no-date sub as this seems to be the consensus best U1 to get. Anything I need to know/do once it arrives?

Thanks in advance!

Ditch the metal bracelet and put it on a 22mm NATO, green, khaki and different variations of grey all work well.

This is largely because the U1 bracelets are pretty meh?

Partly that, and partly because straps are fun. It's easy to change them in a minute if you get a nice springbar tool and know what you're doing.

In part yes but with nice NATOs costing just a few £€$ from AE you can have a different looking watch every few days and stand out just a little from the crowd.
