Thickness is a product of design
If you compare the evo 9 case and the 44GS with the same 9SA5 movement, the 44gs wears way thinner despite not being any thinner due to the lug design. Truly an interesting phenomenon.

Many compare it to the VC overseas
which I have yet to see, though from pictures neither are lacking in depth and richness. It's just that the GS has a stunning texture that occasionally pops out as well!
Wow. What a fantastic match!
Colour and textural dimensions. Very pleasing to look at.
I had a similar GS that came out at the same time, special SE Asia edition, with same strap issues of thickness
The problem I had was to match a color that was different all the time, from whatever angle you view it. Purple-ish angle Deep blue angle Deep navy - black look I don't have any pictures of the straps I tried - none of them satisfactory so I sold it one t...
