We are considering making one for larger wrists but it is a huge investment, so we need to be selling a lot of Megalodons in the future to make that strap an option.

Thanks for the pics, Steve. It is really nice getting to come along for the ride of the whole process of getting Meg 3 up and running. I really feel a part of, and it adds to the meaning and personal value of the watch. Thanks.

Steve, While that logic may sound good it does not make sense. Biggest Shark ever! Big watches attracts big guys who don't want wimpy little 40-42mm watches on our 8" wrists. The rubber strap that ships with on my inexpensive "little" 42mm Seiko divers is long enough to comfortably fit my 8" wrist. I have every strap that shipped with the worldiver and only the metal mesh is a good fit. Even the Zulu is undersized for me. I love the mesh and my worldiver looks good on a 12" Orange ZULU from Greg Stevens. This new rubber strap looks good but is completely useless to us big guys!

I had to drop this in Photoshop to see what it looks like in my combo with the PVD and white ceramic dial, looks so awesome, I can't wait to see it in real life. I've also attached an image to show the black bezel insert on the steel case and rubber strap, also looking sweet, I'm thinking I should have ordered both now. My PVD and yellow dial will look great with rubber strap. ![]()

Steve, any thoughts of having the "B" logo, like the one on the Benarus bracelet on stamped on each side of the rubber strap?

The one thing we did not want is for the average customer to have a bunch of extra rubber hanging off the side of the watch, the way a Seiko or Isofrane does. Our strap is branded with BENARUS engraved on the inside. These straps are complete and the specs can not be changed at this point. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]()
