Jacob, I would gladly ship you my stored steel bracelet if you'd like to check it out. I certainly am not using it. Just send it back whenever you're done with it. Hopefully it is more comfortable for you than on me. I did do a bit of reading on this once I received the watch. Seems a mixed bag....some folks either received a much more comfortable bracelet or were indifferent. Other gents clearly were having my experience. Sam

My only caution would be the steel bracelet. I own the chrono and I am so grateful I prefer it on a Rubber B strap. The steel is VERY uncomfortable for me. Sharp edges. YMMV but thought I'd chime in... HS

Interesting designs. I need fewer coffee things on my counter vs more, though. Ask the wifey...LOL. HS

Godspeed, Mr. Breedlove. One of the U.S.’s finest speed centric soul searchers.

The motor sounds different...more substantial and loud to my ears, but that ain't saying much. HS

Kevin has the correct idea IMO. I used to have to deal with o-ring issues, frequently on a system designed to support consistent nitrous flow from the bottle with either CO2 or O2...the o-rings would eventually deteriorate. Learned a few things...scuba shops and paintball shops are pros. They carry a compound that when applied it makes the rubber swell and often will be a fix if you do not have a replacement o-ring. A kit like the one attached (note the viton material handles temp swings and harsh liquids like race fuel well) I found to be well worth the money. Best of luck, Jacob! Sam EDIT: PS...I would be more than happy to send any that might work for you.

FU V is correct for that kind of money...LOL. Great review. One thing that jumped out at me, though....I REALLY struggle not having a more analog tachometer and speedometer. I know I'm an old fart, but we have owned appliances that are all screens / touchscreens and it can end very badly when things stop working.... It's Italian after all. HS

I have a drinking problem...can't figure out what to drink...
We were in Scottsdale (lovely place...takes a lot to make me feel young these days...LOL). Found a single bottle of 12-yr Knob Creek on the shelf at the local boozer. It's not inexpensive but if you can find it at MSRP I highly recommend it. Not a fan of the 9-yr...they began putting an age statement on the regular KC bourbon a few years back. IMHO, the 9 and 12 have very little in common. I also suggest that the 15-yr is not worth the incremental cost....12 is the sweet spot. HS
