Yeah that's a good price I think. The rubber strap (from other models in the range like the carbon/yellow) is about £130 for your info.
Good to know. If I purchase, I will give it the requisite 3 weeks and see what happens…

I have bang average wrists and it wears well but it’s all down to personal choice. Helps its super light too.

What size wrist do you have?

If I was looking to wear this everyday, switching with the Seamaster, how are the Heuer 01’s reliability wise?

From my point of view, with my wrist of 17,2/17,5 cm, 44mm or 45mm is too big.

It's perfect with a watch between 40mm <-> 42mm, max 43mm.

Very good for the Heuer 01 (and Heuer 02) 😉
Great. Do you happen to know the lug to lug size?

Mine is an 02 which has been faultless.

Apologies! Thought somebody else had posted that earlier. My mistake.

Sorry, when you asked this before I thought you meant the lug width (strap size) that's why I asked if you were changing straps.
Near as I can tell it's 52mm

You should be grateful for the short lugs, if it had 'proper' Carrera lugs it would be 60mm! 😁

Not sure of @cali.watch.girl's wrist size, but it's likely slimmer than yours @bpsmith. The watch looks good on her, but then again just about anything would... 🙄
