I am actually wearing my PuristsPro ABR watch as I type this.
Why is that news? Because until this afternoon I considered it unwearable because of the strap. It felt like a tourniquet. I have owned the watch for several years and never worn it for more than a few minutes at a time.
This afternoon, I made a very simple fix:
1. I found a 24mm strap that was thin enough to slide into the ABR's strap slots.
2. I slid the two ends of the strap into the two slots.
3. I found two nails that were thin enough to fit through the spring bar holes in the strap but fit snugly enough that they had to be pushed a bit to go through.
4. I pushed the strap ends half way out of their slots to give myself some room to work, then used a wire cutter to cut off the excess length of the nails.
5. I pushed the strap ends back into their slots.
I am now wearing the watch on a normal strap, and it turns out to be quite comfortable. It seems to be quite secure also.
