Also have the grey Delugs strap which I really like.

It is a bit shocking how well this watch wears on my 6.75” wrist. The short lugs and how the caseback conforms to the wrist curvature is so unique in my experience.

I find myself wearing the clover FAR more than I would have ever guessed. Even after a couple months of ownership, which is past the typical honeymoon period for me.

Looking to buy that strap as well for my clover. Which clasp did you go with?

Moved the MAD1 deployant to the delugs strap. Works well. As previously noted in this thread, believe you need a 1.2mm screwdriver to remove/add the clasp.

Check Etsy, get a strap custom made to your specs.

On the MB&F shop site, what’s the difference between “enquire” and “waiting list”? When can I expect them to contact me after submitting for “enquire”?

All rubber (not sailcloth tho look it) and they are quite nice imho (from Aliexpress no less!). The yellow strap does not quite match imho, ahhhh well. The red works really nicely and got orange/blue because... orange :)

You use straight or curved spring bars?

Curved.

PS: The Love version's rotor seems easier to spin than the others, and easier to keep going for many minutes.

Fun straps !

Even I did notice that the rotor seems to spin way easier and keeps spinning for long , the added weight of the colored arms helping. Max had mentioned they had to recalibrate the weight distribution of the tungsten rotor to accomodate the colors.

Is anyone looking to pick up a green Lucky Clover? I received mine and as I feared, it's a bit to "high profile" for my wearing tastes. While I like it, it's going to dwell in the safe, under my ownership. I'm not looking to flip for profit, instead I'd first push the option to some of the "luckier" tribe members that were successful on the prior releases, but then ineligible for the "lucky clover".

Mods, please delete if not allowed, with my apologies.
