I have both this newest version and the previous MK2 version. Huge difference! The newer is shorter, more narrow, and without sharp edges. Yhe only downside is that it's more difficult to put the last angle of the strap beneath.
Just ordered a buckle and 3 straps. Shipping Took 3 days from UK to California. Installation is quick, about 90 seconds. I install the buckle first and then add the watch, then micro adjustment. A great product, however, perhaps a bit overpriced.
Your straps don't thread very well. When you get to the last step of looping the strap around the first buckle and then pushing it through, the strap gets caught. The problem is that the space between the buckles isn't wide enough for the strap to get through. So the experience is like trying to push a piece of rope through a tiny hole. And if you try to force the strap through enough times, the ends feel like they'll start to fray. You've got to make the strap ends a little thinner so that you can fish it through the buckle without resistance.
@@paulconradfrank8730 I'm in the middle. All is easy until the final "micro adjustment" part which is nothing like that vid and a PITA. Once finally done, it is a nice set up.
Wish I hadn’t bought two version two about two weeks before version three came out lol

Just fitted this to a Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical - fantastic fit and finish, and very comfortable.

21mm anytime soon?
My main reservation vs regular and nato is a strap change will be way slower.

Maybe the installation isn't as complicated as the video makes it seem, but it's kept me from ordering this.
Will buy one of these if and when the price comes down..
Version 2 were cool.
Like the look of the Octopod but the Zuludiver branding on the buckle means I wouldn't use this.
Installation of it is pain
Its very easy. Takes 90 seconds.
