Still, there is some great quality generics for low price so why not. The Speed-Moon has it's "real" place on velcro in fact, like the guys worn it during them missions ,even it's not the most amazing look one could find. Note that the original velcro is long enough to go around the space-suit...

And you did on heck of a job on this one, and a drop of sweat or two also (as you said:0) Patience is a virtue, and in this case, it payed of in more than just money saved. Thanks buddy! I really enjoy it and the fact that I was involved in it's construction will make it mine forever

Thanks guys! My eyes are never tired looking at this dial: Somes find it a bit boring, personally, I find the whole watch as having a strong personality

Will, I've never seen a watch with that type of velcro band and i spent a few moments understanding it. In the end, I liked it and I think it's a good way of honoring the history. Nice, bro!

Nice, bro! Thanks Jeff! Yes, it's more a "working strap" than something made for looking good: Still having it's charm!
