Congrats! I have a 1288 for about a year now, very similar to yours, and I couldn't be happier with it.

Love the rubber strap over the PET, which really surprised me.

Congrats, awesome watch! Can I ask - did you spend time debating between ceramic vs stainless bezel?

No, it was more about the size of the watch, as I kind of moved away from larger watches and wasn’t sure if it was for me. I tried it on about 10 times before I made the decision to buy it and I can even get away with 44mm Panerai watches, but 42mm is perfect for me

I agree it’s a great fitting watch. Between the case shape/size and the rubber strap, it’s comfortable on. I’ve tried it a good handful and been close to buying, though the 42mm stainless bezel rather than the ceramic you have. Enjoy the watch!!
