Long answer: I find the bracelet is as comfortable as any other contemporary SS bracelet - meaning I occasionally find it starts to make its presence felt as the day wears on. To me, It doesn't feel all that different from say, the Speedmaster's (contemporary) bracelet.

The quick-setting micro-adjustment is awesome. I'm not usually walking around with a pin etc to be able to take immediate advantage of the classic micro-adj system and if your'e outdoors and the springbar goes flying...

But as you noted, other owners don't like the bracelet / end-link / lugs combo and so it's clear to me that before shelling out a small fortune for the bracelet, you need to get to an AD / OB and try one on
This is still a popular production reference so you're bound to come across one assuming you have access to a couple of ADs.
