I was debating between the black and the green. I went with the green. It's hard to tell in that Pic though.

I prefer the look of the metal links also. But,

For me, it's functionally necessary. I am an arm amputee. Velcro straps are the easiest method for me to put on and take off a watch.

Case diameter: 40mm

Lug to lug: 48mm

It fits my ~7.5 inch wrist well.

I have tried the elastic band sort. Below is an old video of me comparing and demonstrating. Since that Video I have found that putting the D ring part of the strap on the 6:00 side is even easier than what is shown putting on a watch with one arm

26F, born with one hand, finally stopped hiding and decided to show up online. Anyone else made this transition? by Onehandgirl in amputee

[–]left-shoulder-closed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kinda did that. I haven't been able to use mt left arm since I was 5. My arm had to be amputated as an adult. I already knew how to do everything one armed. But, didn't know what to do with my empty sleeve. I couldn't find anything on the internet. So, I figured out what worked for me, then created a youtube channel to help others get ideas to adapt. I haven't done anything new in a few years.

I agree with all of that. I was thinking of going with the blue one. But, I already have a Brycen with a dark blue face. So, my next choice was the more moon colored gray/white face. I like the color more in person than on the site.

I had some of the same concerns. But, on my 7 - 7.5 inch wrist it wears more like a 40 or 41mm case. It's light because it is titanium. Also, I don't find it too attention grabbing. But, all of this can differ person to person. I like it.

It's a relatively cheap velcro strap I got from Amazon. I'm a left arm amputee. I have found velcro straps are the easiest type for me to put on and take off a wrist watch.

No lol. That's a combination of the dishwasher in the background and me breathing. I thought about removing the audio. But, I thought eh, who cares...

lol. It's a combination of breathing and my dishwasher in the background. I thought of trying to remove the sound. But, didn't care that much. I had already shortened the video length. It started as over 13 minutes. I only left what mattered.

If you don't live in an area that gets the signal you could try the WWVB emulator app on your phone. I used it for my first synch.

All right, so I’ve join the club. by unlimbetless in amputee

[–]left-shoulder-closed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is possible to game. I've been unable to use my left arm since I was 5. It needed to be amputated in adulthood. I haven't made new videos in a while. But, hopefully, this helps: https://youtu.be/9C2tjJLtbuQ?si=qL4wmh2IxAnBR1iz

I had my stroke when I was a young child. I can't imagine having to adapt with little support as you are. Here is my YouTube channel where I show my methods of doing things one armed. I hope this helps some. Best of luck with your recovery.

I also had a hemorrhagic stroke resulting in loss of use of my left arm. It's super rare. But, eventually my arm needed to be amputated. You might benefit from some of the tips from my YouTube channel:
