Ever since I pre-ordered the Megalodon I had been planning on a shark skin strap for it. I ended up ordering one from Stone Creek straps. I sent Jeanna a sketch of what I had in mind and the dimensions for the lug cutouts. I went with the shark teeth motif and put a "V" on the lug end and also went with a monogrammed keeper with a red shark teeth shape (I basically drew a slightly rounded triangle). I specified grey stitching on the strap since the strap that came with the watch already has red stitching. The strap is now done and I just got some pics from Jeanna. I think it should look good with the watch. Looking forward to trying it on the Megalodon. Pics from Jeanna: ![]()

Sweet! I took your cue and also commissioned a custom strap from Jeanna...but I went in a different direction. I'll post pics as soon as I get them.

Ditto that..looks like we will be keeping him busy. Are these shark skin straps a combination of leather/padding/with the shark skin on top? eg its not just one piece of shark skin, its layered with leather?

I have received the shark skin strap and have installed it. I wasn't quite sure how the design I specified would pan out, but now that I have it in person, I have to say I'm very pleased with it! I think Jeanna did a great job. A few shots: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Wrist shot ![]() ![]()
