The Strap Sickness Continues

Well, I got my gift from my fiancee from Christmas.

She custom designed this with the help of Rob Montana. Just got it in the mail. Sorry for the crappy pics, but it is cold as all can be right now and I'm not going outside for pics. I'll eventually take some outdoor shots to get the color reflected better, but here are the quick and dirties.

BTW, this is my second Rob Montana strap. I was SOOOOO happy with his first one, that I had to get another. The first one on my other what 26x26 is very vintage and very hard. This one is softer than warm butter. OMG. Doesn't even feel like it is there. Makes the oem rubber and oem leather and oem croc feel stiff as all can be.

Anyway I ramble. You guys just want more strap porn. Here you go...


Nice packaging!


Nice sewn in polished buckle.


Yup, my lady got it customized all right.


Nice character in the leather.


Quick and dirty wrist shot...


The sickness. The one on the watch is my vintage Rob Montana as well.

Nice Mik, I like the idea of having your initials on it , how long does it take Rob to do one strap?

Depends. This one only took a couple weeks. The one I ordered before was about 4 weeks. Just depends on how many orders he gets I guess.

I just ordered some Zulus myself, can you please post a picture of the watch on the Nato Bond band?

I ordered 4 Zulus in different colors, sized 24mm and 1 bond nato sized 22mm. What size are yours? And which PAM is that?

The Nato's I have (not Zulu's) are not for my Pam, but for my Rolex and my Seiko.

The Pam I have is a 111 G serial.
