I like that. How does one adjust the bracelet? Do you have to take out links with a spring bar?

Welcome to the club.
It's a solid chunk of coolness on the wrist. Love mine.

Here’s mine. Use the pin portion of the tool to remove mini spring bars that hold links in place. Then I put one end of the pin in the link hole on the bottom side of the bracelet and then ever so slightly with a corner of a thin razor blade, compress the other end of the pin and slip in the other link hole, wiggle a sec for the pin to set in the hole. Takes a few seconds. No scratches. Just like changing a band or bracelet. Super easy. That’s my method. Hope the tutorial helps! Sent from Crapatalk

Yes, the bracelet is super comfy and really balances the heft of metal on top of your wrist. The beefiness of the bracelet really works with the fat square of metal. Here’s mine under indoor warm lighting. I set mine to chime on the hour as you can see with the little indicator above the seconds. All my G-Shocks chime in unison! Sent from Crapatalk

Great! They're pricey if you can't find one below retail. Macy's is having a 30% off sale but there's sales tax
I sourced mine from an AD in Spain with DHL International Express shipping that was 16 Euros I think. No import taxes. I paid 319 Euros I believe plus the 16 shipping. Came lickity split in 4 days with full box, papers, etc... Perfect transaction.

Do it! I love mine. The bracelet is fantastic if a little on the blingy side. They’re also fun and easy to customise. This is my full metal silver GMW-B5000D-1EF with an OEM DLC bezel and OEM resin strap Combined cost of parts £70 (or $86) and 5 minutes to swap them over.
