lovedogs 1 Posted March 11, 2018 I wanted a new strap for my blue Milgauss from WBK. Not sure if it's just me, but I find all bracelets very uncomfortable. I don't like how they stick to my skin (or feel like they do), and don't like how they either feel too big or too small depending on how many links I remove. I had it on a really cheap Invicta strap, but it wasn't doing the watch justice. I wanted something unique that incorporated blue and orange to match the watch. Lots of etsy browsing later, I found a great seller from thailand who makes stingray straps and was willing to customize it with orange stitching. Not sure if it's allowed to name individual sellers, but if it's not please remove. The seller is watch jacket on etsy, just FYI. Now onto the pics!

I always find watches easier to close when I put the strap this way even though I know it's "wrong". 17 hours ago, JSJ said: Struggling to find seller watch jacket on etsy.

BTW the shop owner is really open to custom stuff (that's how I got the orange stitching). She's super nice and it came quicker than I expected. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

thorn697 0 Posted March 13, 2018 Nice choice! Stingray is my favorite leather. I work with it all the time and offer a lot of different colors if you guys are interested. It's the hardest and most durable leather out there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Callmeatticus 0 Posted April 3, 2018 Nice! Stingray is great and super durable. Hard to punch for stitching. Your strap guy did a good job of getting the stitches fairly straight! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
