Jonnybaws 5,280 Posted April 8, 2014 Had Jon (McJules) knock up something for my IWC 3777 Love the watch but the rep strap that comes with it is pish at best! Chocolate Brown Ostrich with Cream Stitching... Looks amazing Those that have dealt with Jon before know that he's one class guy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jonnybaws 5,280 Posted April 8, 2014 Just need to find out how to take the strap (and buckle) off the IWC without trashing the strap... Then again, I don't intend on ever using it again so I may as well butcher it a bit (the old strap, not this one!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If so, thats the one I saw that helped me make my decision to get the Ostrich! #pishfreezone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pseudonym 0 Posted April 8, 2014 It is. Choc ostrich/ wheat stitch. Also had a suede ostrich leg made for my 372. Camel colour - bit like OEM JV strap but a bit nicer. Congrats on the strap. It really is a beaut. #naneaeyourpishpal :lmao: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pseudonym 0 Posted April 8, 2014 There you go Graham... That should tip your wallet in the direction of the 372: And a wee group shot Johnny with some of the last order from Jon. The black nubuck on the end is for the 332 when I get her back from repair. Cheers P. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jonnybaws 5,280 Posted April 8, 2014 Great watches and straps! Love the look of that black Nubuck.. that style but with subtle red stitching, think it could look great on this... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pseudonym 0 Posted April 8, 2014 Ohhhh... Indeed! FYI, It wasn't quite right against the blue of the 332, so Jon said return it and he'll do-over. Customer service A1. The nubuck is so soft mate, you won't regret it. Edit: Actually... Nah mate. Will look shite. Best you sell it to me and I'll look after it for you haha!!

Jonnybaws 5,280 Posted April 8, 2014 Very nice Jon... However, just seen the Medium brown vintage Rolex strap with mimimal ecru stitching on your site, I think that as is would look just as good on the Vintage style Rolex. decisions decisions Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
