Hey guys. Mine arrived today and it’s awesome. None of the reps have brought me so much joy lately.
However, I have an issue I wanted to discuss.
Crown at my sample is really hard to screw in - there’s some elastic resistance to it. Also it’s hard to distinguish position 2 from position 3 when unscrewed.
It looks like ZF used double O-rings at BB Pro, but picked the size incorrectly. More info in this comment and thread here: https://www.reddit.com/r/RepTime/comments/11lvhk1/_/jbeepi5
Does your crown have this issue too? Cheers.

It's the same with mine. It will definitely get smoother over time.

Mine arrived as well and its amazing!
One question, does yours have also very sharp edges around the clasp?

I just got mine in and I love it but I’m having an issue with the micro adjustment. I tend to like my watch band a bit on the tighter side and if I bend my wrist the micro adjust will slide back a few clicks. Was wondering if anyone else is having this problem or if it’s just me having it too tight.

yes, a bit sharper. But nothing that would interfere with wearing.

Okay, my desk has already a few scratches because of them… but at the end, at some time it will be smoother…

Next question, the extension in the clasp is opening some times when I move my wrist.
Has someone an idea how to make this a bit more resistent?

don't wear the strap too tight and carefully remove the metal burr if there is one on your clasp as well
