In comparison with the Luminor 44.

Considering the updates they did to the 1S, I have a feeling the previous versions were barely manageable with their towering 19mm height and lugs. Mind you I have small wrists but still...

I just got mine today. It is way more cool than I thought it would be. And I feel the strap goes perfectly with the watch.

My MAD 1s is stuck in US customs...they want an HTS/Detailed Description. I wrote in that it is a watch made of steel, glass, and leather and linked them to the product page but this was rejected. Anyone else have this problem? What did you tell them?

That's concerning as mine will be in transit end of this week.

Have MAD send them the doc HTS requested. Am sure they have it. No worries, typical stuff, but yeah a day or three delay. :(

It is surprisingly wearable considering its dimensions, the single cylinder to tell the time did the trick as well as slimmed lugs. But without a doubt, it is big.

I never knew this watch even existed until I started reading this thread a couple of weeks ago. I was immediately smitten by it. Just loved the look, especially the red. So I started looking for one in various different places. I found one from a private seller on Chrono 24 that was BNIB, never worn and still had all of the stickers attached. I decided to purchase it and two days later it arrived at my door. And as much as I liked it in photos, it's even better in person. I love it! Thanks TRF!

Note: As with others, I found the strap to be on the small side. As such, I ordered a large strap from the MB&F website three days ago but have yet to hear anything from them.

I received my MAD 1S yesterday. In recycling the shipping box, I found the MB&F HTS doc in the clear sleeve along with my shipping label. Apparently DHL and US Customs missed it because they sent a HTS request to me.

I also had to provide a government doc with my SSN.

Other than Social Security card copy, what did you submit for IRS form verification? I need to do this today too.

I sent the top half of a recent 1040 form. The instructions listed about a dozen other federal docs I could use, but the 1040 was the one I knew where to find.
