Black Bay Pro

So I received my BB Pro today. Very happy with the purchase. Not sure if it’s a keeper though (but that’s mostly on me:)). I’m fine with the thickness however, it is a tad too heavy. Will give it some time before I decide. The T-fit is amazing but if I don’t wear it tight enough, it gets top heavy.

Would I prefer a 16710 or 16570? Absolutely but at today’s prices, this will have to suffice.

I also just got mine and after about 6-7 hours ln the wrist it felt heavy and I had the urge to take it off. Conversely I am wearing a BB41 today which has a similar thickness and height but the extra size of the 41mm seems to be balancing the weight better and it does not feel as heavy. We will see when I hit the 6 hour mark!
