Bought in AU in January. Found it too small on me. Returned the next day. It was made back in April 2021 so there must be a delay in the distribution. Hope everyone who wants one, gets one!

Thank you for sharing! Reminds me to check with my SA. When I asked in December 2021, I was told they're limited edition and there won't be anymore..

Curious, how can you tell when it was made? I remember another thread about the circle stickers on the back of the watch and I think someone said the date on those stickers represent the date when the battery was put in.

It was on the tag.
I didn’t think it is a limited edition, just limited production possibly due to the pandemic but who knows exactly.
Hope you get yours soon!

For people who have the solar beat, how does the strap feel to you?

From the pictures I found online, it looks rather soft and "plastic-y". I'm aware they are made of non-animal materials, so different than regular leather straps. Just curious how it actually feels in real life? :idea: TIA!

Strap feels almost like a lamb skin leather, with some “graining” to make it look like animal leather. Overall feels and looks like leather and perhaps less babying needed since it’s not leather? That said, I also did order a croc-embossed leather strap if I ever wanted to “dress up” the watch!
