IMHO - it just doesn't look quite right. I'm just to used to seeing it w/the regular bracelet.

That's it the watch it ruined - just send it to me & I will ensure that it gets disposed of properly (right on my wrist). I'll even pay for the shipping & handling!

Oh yeah, Taffi, I don't care what anyone thinks. I can always change it back so I just thought it would be kinda fun. Funny thing is I've received PM's in the past when I brought up doing this with members asking me if I'd found one. They were scared to say in public that they wanted to do it too. I'm a groundbreaker, hahaha.

I don't think they'll let you into the country club with that on.

Your pictures are very clear and steady, so I guess that rules out drinking. Next best guess is that this is some crazy joke because that band just does not work with that watch.

I was going to change back to the bracelet tonight but I think I'll keep it with the nylon and post a daily picture for all to enjoy.

Great to see someone with a great SOH, main thing is, you like it!

I'd rather get my eyeballs pierced, but hey we are all different

Straps come and go, but the watch remains the same. We're talking paintings, and frames.

This really is making me laugh. From some of the reactions you'd think I took a blowtorch to it. Breathe people! The bracelet can be put back on in 5 minutes

Y'all need to put down the...



Besides, deep down you know you like it.

LMAO! I'm going to talk to my hippie sister and see if she won't make a macrame band for my Daytona. Not that I'd ever wear it, but the pics here of a Jerry Garcia Daytona would definitely generate some reactions worth reading.

It looks like there is way too much going on. It seems kind of cartoonish in a way. But hey, like you said, you can change it back in 5 minutes.

P.S. It has been 5 minutes. Is it off yet?




PS It has been 5 minutes. Is it back to normal yet?

The red in the strap ruins it IMO, it would look much better on an all blue strap.
