Citizen on the other hand commonly uses snap back, which doesn't bother me so much because those are solar charged and don't require battery changes every couple of years. Water resistance does not seem to be an issue with snap backs as some Citizen models are still 200M WR. These modern snap backs are not like the vintage ones where finger pressure can close them. These days you need a press to securely close them. I guess at the end of the day you can get a cheap press from ebay for $20, but it is still annoying.<br /><br />The single adjustment hole in the clasp can be hit or miss. Just depends on how lucky you are for fit or how tolerant you are for loose wear. I expect the bullhead chronographs to be very top heavy because of the case so all the more reason to have a secure fit with the bracelet.Spin Doctorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00071619650374963128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7521535435173949688.post-50503228796576843612013-01-21T03:14:48.935-05:002013-01-21T03:14:48.935-05:00Thanks for the info.

That's basically a deal breaker in my point of view, same with the single adjustment hole on the clasp. What if you ate too much during the holidays? I need those adjustment holes.
