Thanks for all the praise, Patrick! SO many guys on the watch forums told me it was ugly and that I shouldn't make it, but I loved it and so I went with it! My favorite bracelet to wear, hands down. GREAT suggestion about the polished sides! Maybe for the v.2!

Larry Bouligny It is a great looking bracelet!! I don't know why some people didn't like it... I saw that on SCWF, and I added a comment about the Hexad Oyster, my favorite bracelet!! The only reason I don't go for the Razorwire, is because I think it rattles like the jubilees. But I do love the biker look!! (Harley FatBoy owner here)

Received the Razorwire for my turtle 3 weeks ago and have been wearing it every day. This bracelet is magical, so smooth and flexible in all directions, zero hair pulling. More comfortable than any leather bracelet, Perlon or Silicon and you can swim with it. Looks great too. Sizing was easy, just lay a correctly sized bracelet flat and measure its length, calculate how many links have to be removed to get the Razor wire to the correct length so you get it right first try. This bracelet is a must have for Turtle or SKX owners.

Larry's bracelets and straps are fantastic. I've had the Razor Wire since it first became available. It doesn't pull your arm hairs, very comfortable because it's flexible like the jubilee. A bit of a brain teaser to size - I've a 6.5" wrist and took all the links out then added one back in. Looks awesome. I've also got Larry's waffle, tropic in 3 sizes and tyre tread strap.....well us guys don't really do jewellery so that's my excuse for having do many and I'm sticking to it.

If this has the same clasp as the uncle seiko BoR, which it looks like, then I'm surprised that isn't a "bad/ugly" for you. Although overall I do believe and agree with you that uncle seiko products are quality and especially for the price I am sad that the clasp isn't of better quality. My clasp came to me hard to open and very sharp to the touch where it can almost cut me. This isn't going to deter me from continuing to buy uncle seiko products in the future but IMO there is a big quality difference between the bracelet links and the clasp. I'd be willing to pay more for a better clasp so I hope you see this message Larry! haha. Great review overall still though Pat! You got my wanting the razor wire even though I have the BoR and Z199 already

that's fair. yea I figured I just got a bad pick out of the bunch which is understandable. ooo what clasp are you using if I may ask? bought a strapcode clasp only to find that it uses thicker spring bars and doesn't fit. Love the Z199. Overall aesthetic is so spot on with an SKX. Tapers drastically to 16mm which has honestly grown on me after initially being apprehensive to it. Love the clasp shape and size. It is a fold over keeping a slim profile and it has the most micro adjustments I've seen on a bracelet. If there is a bracelet that isn't coming off my SKX it is this one.

@TakeTimewPatrickMarlett 6 жыл бұрын
Huh, I bought a 20mm Strapcode model as well (two years ago)... I forget the model. I use the spring bars the bracelet came with. Works swell. Umm, it has five micro lvls and a tapered buckle atop the clasp (if that helps), I think it’s the next step up from their standard. Yeahhh, Z199 Is next up for my reviews, but I have a few other pieces to hit first.

@TakeTimewPatrickMarlett

So, I bought an OEM SARB017 bracelet from Seiya Japan. Service and shipment were great, but the price was steep (roughly $160). StrapCode is one of the only groups that makes a bracelet (or two) for the SARB017 that I’m conscious of. I’m sure there are some other brands, but I’m not aware of any fitted bracelets other than those aforementioned.

I was also curious about this bracelet. I was about to get this bracelet for my modded SKX, but at the same time it is a unique bracelet offering, it may be a little "out there".. Not saying it is an ugly bracelet, it is not, but, when I look at the watch it will be going on, and yes it is an SKX much like you have in this video, having that razor wire design so prominent seems to stick out in the fact there is nothing on the SKX that has such details.. there isn't anything quite so jagged and finely detailed on the SKX. So, overall, the design correlation between the bracelet and the SKX is not entirely cohesive. FYI, the reason I actually initially jumped at almost getting the razor wire bracelet was because it looked medieval, I think an adjective or metaphor you sort of commented on as well.. "looks like something out of a novel", And why I thought it would be a good look to my modded SKX is because I have named it my "Night King" mod. Yes, if you watch Game of Thrones, you will be familiar with this name. It looks like some bit of armor or texture on a medieval and semi-organic armor attire which seemed appropriate.. and it probably would be. Also, if you are familiar with Star Trek and Klingon costumes, it reminds me of something that would go along the back spine of their armor-plated costumes, too.. perhaps more so given the more outlandish update they've created in the recent Star Trek Discovery series on CBS. Anyways... I have to agree, the razor wire can actually look a bit rope-like in design & appearance.. as such, I can see how it can tie back to a nautical theme which works for a dive watch. BUT, I thought about it again and I came to the conclusion as what I wrote above.. just not certain there is any design element in the SKX that ties to such razor wire design.. IDK. It will require rewatching your video and pics online a few more times, maybe some Photoshop work, to completely evaluate whether this razor wire bracelet would fit my needs/wants or not. Going back to the design of the razor wire, I feel it is a unique play on a bracelet design some call the mesh link bracelet. See WatchGecko website for this design, I believe some Oris Chronoris watces with a bracelet option also has such a mesh link bracelet design.. Basically, the outer links are solid and wide pieces and the inner links are fine ones which consist of a combined total of 15 pieces (I believe). What Uncle Seiko looks like he has done is removed some of those fine smaller inner links and add a unique spacer at the start where the bracelet meets the lug ends so the fewer smaller links can tilt and angle inwards. The center is spaced with the bottom set of small links which are also angled inwards and it repeats all the way through. I think the only question I might have is because of the way it is designed, did you find the inner "razor" links pinch or pull at skin or hair? I can imagine that might be an issue, but since you didn't mention it as a bad point, it probably never happened. Anyways, thanks for getting a closer look at this unique Uncle Seiko offering. It does sucks no other watches can sport this bracelet. But, then again there's something kind of cool to have an exclusive designed bracelet for us Seiko fans.. just hope he expands to more compatible Seiko models.. which I'm sure he will eventually do.. I think additionally I've asked him if he can make more straight end link versions for his other bracelet offerings which he said he was working on.
@TakeTimewPatrickMarlett
@TakeTimewPatrickMarlett 6 жыл бұрын
Yeah, this design is sticking around. It’s a lot better in person, trust me. The ‘Nautical’ vibe is immediately present when on the wrist. So, to answer your question: nope, no pinching. I left out any note on that entirely because it was just not an issue. I mean, my wrist aren’t that hairy, so for someone else this may prove problematic; but it never caught on/or grip my skin. I get both the GoT and Trek vibe as well! It’s so otherworldly, it feels as though it was a prop piece from a SiFi Original set. Love it.

Thanks for the review! I have a 7.25" wrist as well and it looks like you took one link out, guessing from each side of the bracelet to get the fitment you wanted? I know you said in other comments you swapped in a strapcode clasp eventually but I'd prob make due w the one that comes w this bracelet. Basically any insight into sizing before trial and error w those finicky links wd be helpful. Random Rob just put up a video that's super helpful w understanding the inner link fitment though.. Just an FYI

Lugs are drilled especially for this one. Custom job that a pal had done (this watch was donated to the show).

Good review, albeit a bit long. Easy to polish the ends of the links yourself.

I know. Does every consumer want to do that? Haha, likely not. I have a rotary tool/sandpaper/polish, may make a project of this. It’ll likely be time consuming however, to execute it well.

How would someone do this at home? I am about to order this bracelet and would like to polish the sides of the links. I've only seen it done with mops/fabric wheels on a rotary wheel using polishing compound. I have a dremel with some fabric wheels. Might be worth a shot. What do you think?
