    Iyonk - I am still hoping to have a really nasty worn and wounded strap from you! Maybe you can try to make something out of that stamp mark for me to try? In the meantime, I have yet another favorite watch on a iyonk strap... Damasko

    Too many watches, not enough wrists.

    i could try Robert.. but some of the stamp mark reach to the back of the leather part... and honestly.. those ex-wound parts is really nasty indeed!
    and the current orders of yours that will be use in dressier watches and smaller lug wont be suitable with these thicker material.. so i will make you with a proper material for the orders..
