+1
also got a couple of watches with this band design. i always feel awkward wearing the strap's pointy end facing towards me.
i always switch to normal strap to ease my discomfort biggrin.gif

Yes, you are right, not used to the long end of the band pointing forward. Also when walking with arm swing, that forward pointing end might get caught at the side pocket opening of the pants or trousers. The band is the main thing I don't like about the watch.

Any love for vintage Seikos? Ref: 6218-8000, movements used as base for 62GS in the 1960s. The minimalist design inspired by “Grammar of Design” featuring mirror-like polishing (Zaratsu polishing) on the dials very similar to those in the grand seikos. 

Paired with dark brown leather straps for that vintage feel.
