How noticeable is the gap between the band and lug on yours?

Mine was abut 1mm, since I am OCD I decided to get a 24mm strap, and now it's gone.

I wonder if they make the straps too narrow, or the lugs too wide.

The lugs are slightly wider on the bronze.

I couldn't fit 24mm with solid tubes into the silver pilot.

What shade of blue is your West Time edition? A year ago I bought Davosa Sea Dweller homage with what looked like be a blue dial, but when I got it it turned out to more of a blue with some green in it.

Not really good at identifying colors, but I think it would probably be best described as a slate blue or powder blue.

It's the California edition. I guess my previous pictures aren't showing up anymore due to changes with photo bucket.

I think my top right lug is a few degrees off. I wonder if I could or should try to bend it the other way to align it. Anyone know if that would work, or if it's ill-advised.

Thank you, I asked because I'm color blind and I'm not good at discerning colors.

Scrolling through some old threads and found a question I think I could help with. The lugs are screwed in. If you try to “bend” it you will snap the screw. To access the screws you must remove the case back. I had the same issue and after a quick retightening I was good to go.

hope this helps.
