Got my 299N in mid July and have been super-pleased with it. Bought a Watchboys croc strap from someone I met here and also got the rep rubber when I bought the watch from a seller I found on another forum.
It is deadly accurate and fits like a glove. I was worried that such a big watch would be too large for my smallish wrist but I was wrong. I love the croc but have been wearing the steel for the last few days and I forgot to take it off before a 25 mile bike ride today and didn't realize I was wearing it until after I got home. Didn't even feel it under my sleeve. it. Lucked out that 4 links removed made for a perfect fit. The SS bracelet shouts genuine.
If you have been on the fence about this watch I urge you to pull the trigger but take advantage of the quick change feature and get yourself a strap or two.
My question: Can I swim with this watch? I don't even know if the gen is waterproof.
Bought an AP Diver 4.1 a few weeks back (which is another real winner) and it is waterproof. I travel a lot and love to be able to swim in pools and the ocean with my watches on.
