My band felt uncomfortable; the local jeweler, a friend adjusted the tightness at the clasp one notch and it felt much better. My guess is that it is too tight.

Dings and scratches are really Service Stripes.

Try taking a toothpick to the pin on the clasp and letting it out a notch. That might help.

It looks like it's a tad too tight from your pic and description. Loosen it up a bit and enjoy the awesomeness.

I'm not a medical man, but, I reckon:
You must have that special pinchy type of skin (epidermius nipium).
Remedy: Get a NATO.



or: Add a notch or two's adjustment.

Agreed on NATO Strap.

I had a similar problem (I am a small man) and began using NATO straps on my Tudor Submariner.....wow! Love it!

Add another link on the 6 o'clock side, it will center the clasp on the wrist better and stop the "bite".
