with my ceramic version. Looking at the video the watch seemed tight on his wrist or maybe he made especially vigourous wrist movements? Whatever, I have had nothing but pleasure wearing mine and it has received many positive comments from 'civilians'. Re...
It's such an uncomfortable watch that I've chosen to buy the steel, after the titanium. I really love to hurt myself, to cut my flesh and feel the pain 😎 I didn't watch till the end, the comparison with an explorer 2 says it all, IMHO 🙄
... I freakin' love this watch... until it's on my wrist for 5 minutes. I love everything about it, the look, the blue'd hands, the titanium case, the micro-rotor... until I am wearing it and it starts to dig into my wrist. Then... not so much. - Scott
I have skinny wrists and wear the watch before my wrist bone, the edges are well done they are as sharp as possible without compromising comfort, you can drag your finger over edges and you would not say they are capable of cutting or hurting you.
One of my most comfortable watches, I almost forget it's there when compared to my Royal Oak bracelet. Perhaps some of these fellas need to add a link or two.

Are you a doctor? If not, you know anatomy unusually well! And is it the Ulnard Styloid Process or is it the Ulnard Dome that is the wristbone? I never really remembered. Fortunately I'm not a medical doctor. I only have a doctorate in spending money!
