Chastity device discussions and reviews discussion

Hi there! I’m searching for a long-term comfortable and safe chastity device. After doing some homework, here is what I’ve learned:

• Open designs keep things cleanest
• Metal construction offers the best solution for continuous 24/7 wear
• Shorter profiles are preferable
• PA (perineal anchoring) setups provide superior safety That’s exactly my goal: a “sexy” looking gadget, sturdy build, comfortable fit, secure and hygienic. I’ve browsed many options online. Initially, the Steelwerxx Looker series seemed perfect for me, but then Rigid Chastity’s models caught my eye. Now I’m choosing between:
• Modular Chastity Device 02
• Modular Chastity Device 01 The main distinction is the PA hook: version 02 has a hole, while 01 does not. The thickness of the PA also varies slightly. I’m concerned that the hole might damage my urethra—though I’m unsure—and it demands a thicker hook to compensate. On one hand, the hole seems more hygienic; on the other, perhaps it’s unnecessary. Has anyone here tried them? I don’t have a PA piercing yet. I wonder if 0g would be too much initially, or should I start with just the piercing and later match my gauge to the device? Since I’ll likely spend more time in chastity than wearing rings, I feel the choice of device is paramount. However, I worry about regretting the piercings eventually, though I’ve considered it for years and believe I’d enjoy it. Many people say a PA piercing greatly enhances the chastity experience. What’s your take? PS: I swim three times weekly. I’m unsure if there are infection risks from keeping an open hole underwater, but I assume that with a healed piercing and showering post-exercise, it should be fine. It’s just the tip of my penis, not like having a catheter, correct?
