In my opinion, I think this strap and the contrasting micro-blasted titanium double folding clasp brings the whole watch to life. It’s worth noting that this watch weighs about 115 grams (including the strap). Under dim light conditions, it is somewhat subdued but when wearing the watch outside you can easily see the blue on the dial.ĭefy 21 Ultrablue on a 6.5 inch (16.5cm) wristīlack rubber with ultra-blue “Cordura effect” strap is super comfortable on the wrist and had no issues after a longer period of wear. At different angles and especially under the light, it is still quite amazing to look at. This doesn’t mean however that the blue doesn’t stand out. The blue on the main plate could be a little bit brighter so that it shines as the Ultraviolet does against the grey tones of the watch. The blue main plate is the talking point of this piece and while it certainly does stand out and is a beautiful finish to the dial, it’s a little more subdued when compared to the DEFY 21 Ultraviolet. This could be because I saw the Ultraviolet model first and the standard was set high. This is also quite easy to read as the background of the indicator along with the blue main plate contrasts well against the white indicator hand and markings. There is also a power reserve indicator for the chronograph located at the 12 o’clock position. The readability of the sub-counters is easy thanks to the white markings on the counters themselves. The counters are a 30-minute counter at 3 o’clock, a 60-second counter at 6 o’clock, and a constant second counter at 9 o’clock position. The closed chronograph counters are finished in grey as well which matches the bezel/case and provides a contrasting effect against the blue main plate in the background.
