Reply With QuoteI have found the edges of the keepers a tad sharp. Well, sharp enough to need filling down to take the edges off. Apart from that, they are the absolute best.
.... they wouldn't be as good as Eddie's.
Material, fittings and length are perfection.

Also, the keepers are solid-metal circles. I have ruined a strap (trying to get one off)... thinking that it was folded metal.
Unfortunately they aren’t the perfect length for me - I wish they were 20-25mm longer.
Love the straps, hate the keepers.

I like the keepers too and the buckle. They are even better once they have been in the wash.
I think that they are very good indeed.
I would but them on a par with Phoenix NATO's.
Both suit some watches better than the other. I much prefer my CWC RN Diver on its original Phoenix where as a G10 suits either...and so on.
Ive got a grey one on my PRS18Q and Im going to order a gren, brown and black when the shop opens next.
I could do with them being a bit longer but they just about tuck back into the first keeper so I can live with that, especially for the price.
Im going to get a retro rubber for it too.
Cheers,
Rob
