Dangerous9Straps - Vintage Ammo on DSSD

Recommended Posts

BenjaminB

I waited a long time for this strap but it was definitely worth the wait - not cheap and maybe not for everyone but John G is a true craftsman ! The more I wear it the darker it gets and it feels great on the wrist.

Great craftsmanship for sure, but an ammo pouch strap on a modern day design Rolex diver?

 

I don't get it personally.

 

BUT I bet it feels a whole lot better on your wrist then the bracelet. I personally think DSSD bracelets are too small for the watch's height and width. You have to wear them super tight for the watch to be stable on the wrist.

I agree It just does not work with the bracelet - Rubber B straps work well but as I said a vintage ammo on a DSSD may not be for everyone - I just happen to like it.

Imteresting combo.

 

 

They have some Aluminum sheet sandwiched in endlinks area, and than cutted and formed?

 

If you ever remove it from watch head. An few sideways (cross cut) photos would be cool.

 

Beutiful strap otherwise.

 

Bit unusual on DSSD but still great.

Don't think there's any aluminium - just packed in with allot of leather - not sure what he does but he calls it a TCLS - Thick Curved Lug System - its similar in design to a RubberB

I googled it and apparently dangerous 9 strap maker is called John Glance. So makes sense now.

Ah , OK I get it now. However for me there is only one true JohnG and his Nero straps. I do like the OP's strap though!

Very nice! Curved end straps look amazing on any Rolex. I have a Hirsch curved end on the 16610 that my wife wears. So what was the cost on this one?

Joking aside, I love dangerous straps, and I am waiting on a friend who is getting a 3D printer at which point I am going to try to design an insert for the Rolex case so I can make curved end straps that fit like a SEL... And dangerous was my inspiration for wanting to do these....
