Been on wrist for a few hours, bracelet feels "sharp", but apart from that the watch sits so nicely for me. Will be looking into sourcing the rubber strap, maybe gen, to make a little more wearable for me. Anyone know of any "noob" tips to settle the bracelet in a bit?

Could oil bath it I suppose

Instead of oil I use hair conditioner. Clean the bracelet, massage the hair conditioner into the bracelet and put it together with some more conditioner in a seal bag. Let it sit for a couple of hours, rinse and you're ready to go

As in, hair conditioner? I've realised how stupid a question that is

Funny gen people complain that the dial isn’t true matte, but the rep is…(facepalm)
That was my complaint when the gen version released actually. I didn't like the sunburst dial on a diver. It's my main gripe with the 116610lv as well.

I wanted this in gen but ya kinda felt the same way wanted matte everything, a true smaller size pelagos. I bought a Christopher ward Luminere instead. True matte dial, insert, same style lume markers in titanium.
