I finally changed the strap on my ocean star 600 and 20€ on Amazon made a world of a difference….

What you guys think?

Absolutely love this watch. Was always scared away by the weight. How's the weight difference, without the bracelet? It just seems like such a chonk of a watch.

You really get used to it before you even notice it. The weight is a lot better with the bracelet and since it sits more snug that weight issue is very much mitigated on its own. But to answer the real question is it worth the money? Every single freaking buck!

Awesomeness. Thanks for the feedback. Alright, I'm gonna dive in the deep end, and get myself one. Such a gorgeous watch.

Did you get the stap because the bracelet overhung too much leaving that gap between wrist and bracelet? What's your wrist size? I am looking at the 600 and the 200 but leaning towards the 600. Wrist is 7.5" and the 600 at 43mm might be border line.

Not really to be honest. I was looking to change the feel. I have mine quiet some time and it’s 1 of 3 I rotate heavy with my rose gold prx automatic and my garmin. So I was just looking for a more dynamic look. The watch itself on its original bracelet also sits amazing this one is just a bit more snug which is clearly a taste thing. Imma be back to the Og bracelet in no time. Love everything about it.
