I have just ordered a Dekla Turbulenz 42mm Black DLC and would like to get a rubber strap for it. I will definitely be taking the watch in the water and also prefer a Deployant Clasp. I have an older Sinn U1 on rubber which I love, relatively thick rub…
Continue readingNew and improved nylon strap? – Sifu Straps
Sifu Straps introduced a new patented design nylon strap earlier this year and I’ve used them for 2+ months now non-stop. As a watch enthusiast first and foremost, I want to spread the word of these awesome straps because they have re-ignited my love for nato/nylon straps because of the thinner look and better feeling on the wrist.
It’s tricky to try and post about things that you are excited about as a watch Youtuber when everything can be interpreted as an ad. I don’t want this…

Bracelet options for Eterna-Matic Kontiki 20

These are probably the nicest straps I’ve ever used. The construction and hand-stitching is impeccable. Out of the box, the leather is fairly stiff, esp compared to my Delugs bespoke straps, but I actually prefer this. In my experience, stiffer straps wear less in the long run and better conform to your individual wrist over time.
The most incredible thing about these straps…
