Watchgecko- happy customer

[daveyw]

Following on from the watch talk thread about Watchgecko discounts I thought I’d post a couple of quick pics of my recent arrivals.
Firstly a vintage Winchester 20m leather strap for my Speedy Ultraman.


Initial impressions are all good. What I’m really pleased about is the thickness of the strap and it blends in nicely with the lug thickness. I’ve tried to show that in this picture in comparison with the Nato it was on.

A great buy for 20quid!

And then finally, the NATO which is also a Watchgecko, was put on my Oris Divers 65.


And that looks great as it’s a glossy black strap which matches up the gloss finish on the dial and bezel of the 65.
Anyway, a thumbs up from me for these straps.

Funnily enough I was just going to start a thread asking what people think of Geckota straps!

Here's one I got with a watch (I'm very impressed with it but new the brand)

Have bought several over the years. Now, I think they're overpriced for what you get unless in a sale. Have sent a couple back as the colour (almost orange) was nothing like the image (supposed to be la natural/ight brown). These days there are lots of QR straps, or shorter length or half-padded none of which appeal. I think straps from the likes of Di-Modell, Rios and Morellato are nicer, offer more choice and are generally cheaper.
