Looks a bit too racy, Scott. The "pin" could snag easily. But I guess it will take some time to understand it.

Since you make straps, I wonder if you could use copper wire for the stitches for a regular strap that might match the Apollon. Maybe that experiment would be worth the result....just my opinion...

Since you make straps, I wonder if you could instead use realcopper wire for the stitches for a regular strap that might match that Kazimon. Maybe that experiment would be worth the result....just my opinion...and just curious

Thanks, much appreciated! Wearing it today so will see how it works out.

Wire: yes, that's another idea that's been on the list to try. From my experience: copper and brass wire will break after being bent repeatedly. Will have to try it to see.

I see where Jeff is coming from but do like the look. If I ever get around to getting that Kazi... model that strap could be interesting. Just so much going on that watch collecting has taken a back seat for awhile.
