Hi,
I just want to ask you all, does anybody find the Airwolf leaves a "turbine" shape on your wrist when wearing an airwolf + do you feel the watch can be slightly uncomfortable because of this at times..... ??
Thanks in advance!

Yes! Exactly the same happens to me. The turbine tattoo on the wrist and the uncomfortable itch.... I am seriously thinking about selling my piece because of this issue. It's sad but true. I tried a croc band instead of the pro 2. Also, how adjusted it is on your wrist? Mine sits tight on the writs as any other watch I own..... We need help! I really want to keep it but ...... |

Well I have just swapped my Chrono Colt II for a Airwolf, I am NOT selling the airwolf lol, I LOVE IT! however I have only bought it today yet am coming out with these annoying "tattoos" hahaa! I have ordered a Black Leather Strap with pin buckle, and also a diver pro II rubber with pin buckle, maybe this will relive the heavy pressure  Thanks Dino |

I have one and have never had this issue. Is it too tight, maybe. I do know the alarm is pretty loud and I've heard the new Chronospace is even louder. R/ |

I have the same issues with mine as well. It's scraping and chaffing my wrist at times, can get uncomfortable with lot of wrist movements. Anyone has a remedy to it? |

Forgot to mention, I have mine on Pro II which is the most comfortable at best. The Hershey strap can prove to give me chaffing more. |

I think it depends on the tightness. Because its thick as well, if its too loose it has an annoying wobble to the outside of the wrist, too tight it leaves the turbine shape. I have the copilot with mine which reduces its wrist rolling effect, & have it reasonably tight. It doesn't move & can forget I'm wearing it after 5 mins. It depends on the wrist shape & tightness I think. cheers |

I never had an issue with comfort when I had one. As long as it wasn't too tight on the wrist. So if any of you guys want to part with yours, shoot me a pm.  Don |

Hi all, I love mine..  and as I have it slightly loose (the AD sorted it perfect over 4 attempts of adjusting) I have no turbine tattoo or chafing at all.. just very comfy and no probs at all (and this coming from a t touch titanium that was like a feather on my wrist!) |

I'm assuming it will be as, if not more comfortable because of the ability to make exact adjustments by way of the deployant clasp. I'm wondering for those who use the leather deployant strap is my assumption correct?
