Great choice congrats.
A couple notes :
You might find the rubber strap length a bit marginal for a 7,5" wrist but still wearable
On bracelet I find it more comfortable than my Black Bay and many other watches I've owned. Can be a bit of a hair puller while brand new but this gets sorted quickly by itself.

Pretty soon I guess. I've had mine since last year but it's only seeing full wrist time over the last couple months.

Does the Pelagos have screw links or push?

Here is a picture of my Pelagos LHD sitting next to my 40 mm Rolex. It lists as a 42 mm but wears a little bit bigger. On the titanium bracelet it is absolutely amazing. It is extremely comfortable.

The blue version is a very flat blue. Not reflective at all like the Smurfs submariner. It is probably the best value proposition out there. Tough as nails, water resistant to 500 m and a manufacturer movement. I have worn it with the rubber strap but I agree that it’s a little top-heavy with it. On the bracelet that is perfect. The micro adjustable bracelet is absolutely incredible. A true homerun and incredible value for the money. The LHD is not available with the discount but the black and the blue are easily.

I think that the difficult decision will be to go with the LHD, Blue or standard Black. Good luck with your decision and I look forward to an Incoming thread.
Nice collection. Love the lhd
