Great experience and the Heron folks are a friendly and welcoming bunch! Got to try on the Mirabel GMT on my own Furlan Marri mesh bracelet today, gotta say it looks quite nice on it.
Let me be clear - I’m not referring to OTF micro-adjust systems, which I think is essential and should be implemented into every bracelet.
I’m referring to tool-free link removal systems, which a lot of people seem to like. It’s stupid because link adjustment only has to be done once. Compared to a traditional pin or screw link systems, this is less secure, more moving parts means more points of failure and a higher chance of your bracelet links accidentally decoupling, all while the only benefit it brings is saving you 2 minutes while adjusting.
I’ve been eyeing a CW The Twelve, but I think the power reserve is a big weak point. With the Sealander lineup upgrades, I really hope that The Twelve lineup can get the same treatment soon. Design tweaks are welcomed but I really just want an SW200-2 in there with a new rotor.
