Redfire1066 10,946 Posted September 23, 2021 @RussP . thanks Russ, much appreciated .... although to be honest .. .. the Strap change I tried with the additional packaged NATOS and Silicon Strap did not work out. Changed, thousands of straps over the decades . . some have been a challenge .. . but none more challenging than this "Tactical Frog" DOXA Homage. Three of the four additional NATO Straps that come with the package are 22mm lug width . ... for a 20mm watch .. . lol . . but will come in handy for other watches. Eventually I gave up after three hours trying to fit the 20mm Silicon Strap . ... the lug holes are sitting too far back towards the case for successful fitting. A curved Silicon/Rubber lugged strap may fit a little easier and the other option is using a smaller 19mm NATO Strap and or curved lug pins . . ... I will get round to trying the more expensive $$$ "Maranez DOXA Homage" eventually. But overall the Heimdallr "Tactical Frog" is okay for a few $$$. But IMHO the SAN MARTIN brand of Homage watches do seem to be a slight cut above the usual suspects with their quality control. If only they would build a DOXA Homage Russ. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe so, Paul I'm quite taken with the Seestern range. They've nailed it quite nicely, IMO. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
