Jonnybaws 5,280 Posted June 7, 2014 A few weeks back, comissioned Jon to do some straps for me. They came today. Jon is a pleasure to deal, professional, very prompt in responses and a perfectionist! If you've not dealt with Jon (McJules) before, why not! A credit to this forum, IMHO.. Two piece Nato was initially for the Pro Hunter, however, had issues taking the Springbar off, put it back on the black nylon Nato and used this strap on the Rolex Daytona 6263.. The Daytona was on a bracelet but think it looks great with the Vintage Horse Leather Nato on it... (its buttery smooth and uber soft!) The Spitfire I bought off Dalboy was (is) great, but the rep strap was, err... not! So, asked Jon to knock up a Toad leather Pilot style strap, stunning.. result! Before.. (on Rep strap) After.. Final strap, went for a vintage style strap on Sand Leather, single large free keeper.. Was initially bought to be put on my Vintage Red Sub but since then, I picked up a Vintage Double Red Sea-Dweller.. Before.. After.. Thanks for looking.. And thanks again Jon!!!

_DC_ 218 Posted June 7, 2014 These are some damn sexy straps, they look even better on the watch and on the wrist than the pics you sent before!!! The 6263 on NATO is my favourite!! DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jonnybaws 5,280 Posted June 7, 2014 Cheers Dave... Pictures being one dimension, can't get across the feel/smoothness of all the straps, great quality! Lucked in with the Nato on the Daytona, wasn't designed for that, had planned to stick it on the Pro Hunter, but with the sleeve over the spring bars being bloody impossible to get off, gave up and put it on the Daytona, the Nato hardware being SS goes great with the watch, IMHO..

gottahaverolex 0 Posted June 17, 2014 The spitfire strap...not so much. Stitching is too far apart and crooked. The other two look great. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jonnybaws 5,280 Posted June 17, 2014 Awesome looking straps! Cheers mate... love them, esp. the Vintage Leather and Double Red Sea-dweller combo! The spitfire strap...not so much. Stitching is too far apart and crooked. The other two look great. Cheers, Toad Strap on the Spitfire isn't too bad (well, I really like it ) in person...

FuzzyCoyote 2 Posted July 10, 2014 Had a photo earlier this week of the Toad strap Jon made and instantly sorted out for another one in Black Ostrich..... Ridiculously excited to get them now and enhance a couple of my watches Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
