I feel my watch collection has stabilised recently (in other words, I’ve no more money to spend on watches) so I went on a strap buying spree today, with more to come:
Uncle Seiko waffle
Zuludiver 284
Zuludiver 306
Zuludiver US Type Bond Nato
Strapcode Miltat Velcro
Hirsch Robby
I still want a Phenomenato in 20mm (currently out of stock), one of Eddie’s 2 piece nylons with deployant (not taking orders until next week), and a Red Rock Straps canvas, the colour of which I’m mulling over carefully.
I’m also tempted by a Steveo strap, having seen the positive feedback and pics in another thread.
My wife once compared straps to shoes for watches... why not!
I’ll post some photos and quick impressions when I start receiving them.
First ones are here.
ZuluDiver 306:
(+) good quality rubber, nice smell
(-) too thick, doesn’t sit well on the wrist or between the lugs.
Verdict: disappointed
ZuluDiver 284:
(+) supple, not too thick, love the flat vents
(-) a tad too long for my wrist (6.75”) and I probably should have gone for black
Verdict: I like it
Hirsch Robby
(+) build quality, comfort, looks
(-) too much red
Verdict: awesome strap, love it
ZuluDiver US Type NATO Vintage Bond
(+) easier to wear than a standard NATO, great colours
(-) just another nylon
Verdict: cool but not special
Thanks for looking!
