I think that I have done a full circle with the watch collecting over the years and have ended up back at the start, wearing a Timex weekender, I wish that someone could have told me this 30 years ago, I could have saved myself a lot of money.

Turtle on Razorwire ist the most comfortable combo in my substantial collection. Better than leather or anything else, even than some smaller watches I own. Its like silk, never pulls hair either. And I had this combo now for 2 years plus, it will stay on my turtle for good.

I am really looking for a razorwire bracelet to replace the stock Seiko one on my Seiko Monster Save the Ocean Penguin SRPH75 but I am not sure if its compatible. I’ve been looking everywhere for other metal options from Uncle and Strapcode for this particular watch but can’t find one. Any suggestions?
@davidcochran848 Жыл бұрын
For a sports watch the strap is very fragile. Not much point in having a nice shockproof watch if the strap is prone to disintegration. Worst of all is the totally non-standard design of the strap fixings that make it impossible to easily replace it. Why do we need a strap that has nonstandard fixings?

@invision86269 ай бұрын
Late to this obviously, but the watch itself isn't heavy to the point of needing to 'counter balance'. Size any band correctly for the turtle and you are just fine.

I too purchased the razor wire for my turtle. It looks just so amazing. When It finally arrived, the buckle/clasp was felt very flimsy and for me the sizing was a nightmare. Ensuring each individual link is properly lined up was just too much for me. Once it is properly sized then it is not an issue, but I will not buy another razor wire bracelet just because of how much of a hassle it is to size.

The stopping of the second hand at 12 drifts off after sometimes a few hours or a few days. I put in a new battery despite jeweler claiming nothing wrong with old battery. Still drifts off 12. Not a “comfortable” watch to own. Always wondering if the stop at 12 will still be working when I look at time …
