Is it a true compressor?

Tell us about the strap

[–] ProfessorYakkington@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

No it isn’t a true compressor. It has an internal rotating bezel and general look of one but not the pressure seal.

The strap is a nylon perlon strap from the same manufacture as the watch. The watch shipped with a rubber strap that I wasn’t a big fan of β€” it felt too narrow for my taste.

The perlon strap feels and looks a lot better in my opinion but I am a bit concerned about how well it will hold up.

Thanks for the additional details - it looks like a nice watch, and looks great on that strap.
