I got in on the DWP pre-order last June, but when it arrived in March I had mixed emotions about it. Something wasn't clicking for me with the bracelet.![]() When the OEM rubber came in, I thought that might be the solution, but my large wrists meant it didn't fit right. ![]() After that I decided to just tuck it away for awhile and decide whether to sell it or not. Enter Scott (aka Timesofplenty) and Arsenal Straps. We've all drooled over the watches & straps in his posts on the WRUW threads, so I decided to check out what he had for sale. Turns out, my 8.5" wrist isn't going to work with standard straps, so Scott kindly worked with me to make a custom strap and get the right fit & stitching on the type of leather I wanted. The BB photos don't really do it justice, but it came in last night and I couldn't wait to share. Everyone with a chunky diver owes it to themselves to consider an Arsenal strap. Now on to the photos of my new custom 1940s Swiss Ammo leather strap.... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Nothing like a nice brown leather strap. Looks sweet! |

Good blend! I guess that the original trouble with the steel bracelet is that it had a straight shape: It should have come around the case to look right. This vintage leather fits much better than the rubber anyway. I would also have tried it on a black 5 rings Zulu for outdoor/water activities ![]() |

Scott's Arsenal straps really stand out to me (fantastic leathers and outstanding workmanship down to the smallest detail IMO)...and this one is no exception!!!![]() Outstanding looking strap and looks great on your DWP! ![]() Enjoy this combo! |
