That makes sense, maybe will try that and show that option.

Here’s some information for the misinformed here: 1. If a particular bracelet Uncle Seiko makes has a stamped clasp, it’s because the original version had a stamped clasp. It’s a specific design decision to replicate the original, not a cost cutting measure. 2. If a particular bracelet Uncle Seiko makes has hollow end links, it is to get the end link to actually fit. There is a reason why Seiko, in 2020 uses hollow end links on almost all of their sub $500 watches and it isn’t just cost. It’s because there is just enough variance in the tolerances of their case manufacturing that they could never get solid end links to reliably fit at the scale they produce watches. So Seiko, like Uncle Seiko, uses hollow end links which can remedy this issue and get a tight fit. A solid end link that doesn’t fit correctly cannot be bent and manipulated to fit. 3. To anyone mentioning the fact that Strapcode uses solid end links for these lower end Seiko straps, they recognise this issue to such a degree that they have multiple disclaimers about fitment issues. Their solution? They will send you really thin spring bars, which allow the solid end link to fit by creating a looser fit. This looser fit results in your endlinks moving and wiggling to quite a degree. Whilst we are on the topic of Strapcode, some if their bracelets are almost twice the cost of Uncle Seiko but with much worse finishing. Some of the edges are so sharp you can cut yourself on them. 4. Larry (Uncle Seiko) is a member of the community and hobbyist, designing and making from scratch bracelets which are intended to be “drop in” replacements for ageing, vintage Seiko originals. He could easily charge significantly more and still sell a ton of straps and bracelets but he wants to keep his products accessible to everyone, which in my book buys him a ton of goodwill in the watch community and I’ll support him at every chance I get. Strapcode are at best rebadged Aliexpress generic pieces cobbled together (yes, really).

Not to mention also that Stapcode super jubilee bracelet sucks because it's doesn't have female enlinks..

@@stuartcole4845 well, four years later uncle seiko offers solid end links and a milled clasp 😁

I am sure it’s from the same parts bin. Many use them, very good clasp and keeps them affordable if everyone uses them.

Miamis4me Push pin for the win. Just no collars please. Haha

I know it’s three years later but strapcode does

@@mariog7213 well thank you :D

The stock Seiko jubilee is one of my all time favorites and it’s all kinds of hollow.

Have a look at Strap Code.

Vegan Dinner Strapcode doesn’t carry the beads of rice bracelet. I have the bracelet and it’s a really comfortable bracelet. I’m wearing mine on a Samurai.

Email Larry at Uncle Seiko, I am sure he can help. www.uncleseiko.com/contact.html

Bracelets are from Uncle Seiko on the web. The bright blue skx is modded and not something you can buy.

I noticed that. They look very cool to me. I need to buy a normal turtle though to review it. Only have the black one and the gold one.

See what end links fit. They are 20mm lugs, most of what he has is 22mm.

Me too! Less chance of problems, i.e. the screw being stripped or falling out.

GEARY I just got the president for my 007 it’s very nice fit finish and quality is top notch

Yes, beads of rice.

Like the link provided in the description?

Don’t think so

Actually, since Rob chose to put a lot of the bracelet under the clasp rather than remove the correct amount of links, it rattles. I was going to mention that to him but forgot. So, the noise you hear is from excess bracelet, not based on the materials used.
