Bought one, love it, and mine came with the metal bracelet (which is nice). Also got an extra rubber strap for it, and after swapping it out this weekend, I love it even more. I have to say, though, the lume on mine is really bad (and uneven). But I'll just swap the bezel, hands, and dial like everybody else. Has anybody had any experience with the Ult 42mm red gold version? I really want one, but I fear that the gold may wear off eventually.
