Guess what arrived. I thought picking a higher (#65) serial would put me farther back on the delivery list, but it was apparently random.

Loved the U1P, and it fit fine, but this one fits my wrist a lot better and is remarkably thin. Worthy of the hype, love it.

Are the hands (center) matte black, or glossy like the U1 pro?

It looks amazing. I’m glad you got one of the first.

The hands definitely look more matte than the U1P.

They are matte, not glossy.

Thanks Chris. Absolutely matte. And it goes without saying, thanks for your work on this! It's wonderful.

You guys won't be disappointed. It certainly has exceeded my expectations.

Edit: Shitty pic, but the lume is one of the really nice points for me. I much prefer BGW9.

What are your thoughts on the matte hands vs gloss?

Lol discussion should prob be in the u50p thread I guess

I prefer the matte hands a lot over the glossy (though I never thought much about it before). Makes the hands "float" a bit more, so I personally consider this a positive.

New strap from Strap Habit. Best $27 I’ve spent in a while.

Looks great. Never heard of them- they make quality straps? So hard to find a good rubber.
