Seth (Superdog) is a Super Guy

Having seen my incoming post of an Omega Aqua Terra and my questioning the availability of rubber strap options for this watch I was completely blown away by Seth of his offer of an OEM Omega rubber strap.

Make no mistake, this is not a knockoff, which can be had for around $40-80 on Etsy or eBay. This is the real deal from Omega and carries a very hefty price tag. Knowing what this item cost, I originally declined his offer. Well, he was persistent, and told me that the strap was wasting away in his closet...I gave in.

Thank you Seth for your above and beyond generosity. You are a large part of what makes TRF the community that it is today.

He’s referred to himself as white trash (jokingly) BUT he’s the furthest thing from it!! We’ve come a long way from me wanting to kick his tail through the internet. Self made and un-selfish! Truly one of the best guys on TRF!!

Much appreciated my friend. I’ve thanked you privately and felt it important to thank you publicly as well. You’re the best.
