ya i'll be getting the trail 1, im travelling next month, i hope to catch it overseas without paying tax, if not i can always get it back in SG, no loss to me too.

but for a start, im getting the Nomad rubber 1 during 11.11
You can have a lookout at shopee or lazada 11:11 for trial loop. The current price of $115 on shopee already 17% off srp. More than any tax free price you will find anywhere overseas.

11:11 price cfm will be even cheaper. MTL!

Early morning a throw poison here and there...

Ocean band will take a bit of effort to put on right? Because i tested in apple store it isnt as straight forward to get the strap through the hook due to the ridges on the band

You need to size up your wrist to which hole fits most comfortably. Mine's 5th hole from the strap end and the strap keeper is 3rd hole from the buckle. The slotting in takes a little manoeuvring and rests after the second ridge.

No issues to me wearing and taking off ocean band.

Can’t be as hard as taking on and off the Alpine Loop i guess? I see Youtube videos have to take care taking off the Alpine Loop in case the buckle scratches the watch?

Nope, Alpine Loop putting on and taking off is also easy.

I also been using Ocean Band for this week cuz keep raining. Use Trial Loop kena rain water later chao sng 🤣

Haha...as the name states, it's perfect for the water and perfect for swimming. I don't dive so the most I'll use it is when swimming.

Trail Loop is designed for endurance sports but the material isn't that suitable for that purpose. Definitely, a lot of perspiration will be involved, so it'll require frequent washing.

Alpine Loop for hiking, cross-country and other outdoors activities. Wet weather and perspiration is no issue but similarly, will smell after some time, so will also require washing. The fabric material will also stain over time due to perspiration.

My colleague complain his Alpine Loop cause some abrasion on his wrist after gym session due to the strap edges. I told him get Trial Loop better, MTL 🤣

The inner NS experience in all of us will tell us to ultimately get Ocean Loop because rubber works in all conditions.

lol .. how he got the abrasion from watch? looks more like allergic reaction?
Have couple of similar posts/comments on Awu Fb page, so I suppose it's a common thing & Alpine by right is more for hiking rather than Gym.

After swapping between my 3 straps everything week. I prefer Ocean when i need to run around places during the weekdays since my wrist will sweat 🤣. Sometimes need to remove watch & wipe sweat underneath the watch.

Trial Loop is my weekend watch when go out jalan2.

SS band for formal events/meetings/weddings etc haha. Sometimes for weekend too depending how i dress.
