Mik- I so want that piece! The 44mm PAM's wear like a 40mm on a normal wrist, so I think I'd be able to pull it off...I hope!

Well, I start wearing mine on the third tightest hole, it's snug for like the first week or so, and then becomes perfect!
love the PAM OEM straps BTW, they feel good. Real good!
