can see your point of course might have a word with pep and popoki nui and see they can have another go at pushing if on the fb page tonight or tomorrow if they can
not that it would make any difference but I know myself and a few others are planning to double up on them sort wear one keep one as a cool novelty

If we're only doing one size, some of the 20mm voters may buy a 22mm making the sold amount higher. I voted 20mm (to use on my Alpinist) but I'll buy a 22mm even though the only three watches I've ever owned with 22mm lugs are gone now.
I said I'll buy a strap and, by god, I'll buy a strap!

Alternatively, maybe some of the 22mm voters could be persuaded to switch to 20mm?

I would order one 18mm, two 20mm and one 22mm. So that's 4 straps.
If no 18mm is made then I would order two 22mm.

Sorry, late to the process but have I missed a target price? As I understand it it will be one of 3 sizes? Please reiterate for us late comers. I would likely buy one in either 22mm or 20mm. If price was reasonable and all were available, I'd probably buy an 18, a 20 and a 22.

Even a broken watch shows correct time once or twice a day. I ought to know, I have a few!

With the current numbers I'm leaning towards $16 for each strap. If we can get more to commit I can lower it but not by a lot unless we really gain some numbers.

yeah it is not terrible but cheaper is better I was thinking if you was to do another vote but only have the option on 20mm and 22mm only as they was the highest and make it so you could only vote for one or the other we could get an idea . plus maybe ask them to say which size they have picked and how many they want so we could have some idea of quantity

If we're just trying to get an estimate on how many buyers there are, how about a thread/poll something like "I will buy one strap whether the size is 20mm or 22mm" and anyone buying more can reply to the thread with the quantity they want?
Then, of course, people just have to reply to the thread... this year.
I still don't think you're going to get 50 though. :-(

well we had a list going at the early stage and it had 40ish names on it but the voting on size has been a bit poor I want this too work surprise surprise so 22,mm 20 mm meh what ever so would be good to get a size decide on and have a ready to go nato we have time but it given to much time could miss the IWL 1st birthday which is why we are doing the strap in the first place and why I am pushing it so much it would be a nice thing to happen to have a souvenir of the first year of such a great forum some of us have been through some stuff this year and being here was a good way to relax and take it so having a nato or two as a memento would be grand
