Happy weekend guys!!

i always fascinated with Panerai and vintage Rolex with distressed and weathered straps... but since i dont have those-- i was looking just for a fun project for my self..

its been weeks since i made this strap, i was hesitate to use it since like i told before it was from a weathered old faithful footwear... and honestly, it doesnt as nice as those straps that i saw on the net.. =) (it is ok in person, but doesnt seem as nice on foto)

so today, i finally put a buckle hole in it... i really dont have a nice watch and i already like this black monster on the previous black leather selfmade.. but i put it in anyway rather than put it in the ziplock with a couple dozens of fail selfmade.. =)

and no, it doesnt look as complemantary as Panerai or vintage watches hahaha... silly me..

Not new Jane, I've had it for a couple of years but its been in the drawer for the last year or so.

Thanks very-very much Jane and C! =D

Cam motivated me to dig out my own Helson. I've long ago robbed the mesh strap it came with, but recently bought a replacement so will be getting it back next time. For now it's on some new leather that needs breaking in yet.

excuse the quick n dirty iPhone shot on my kitchen counter I'll take something proper in the daylight

lyonk: that strap looks great, don't sell yourself short
Henry: I'd love to see a wrist shot or two of that Spacewing

Ah, now there's a watch! Love it!

Wearing the cricket today..



This watch is easily over 13 years old, had it serviced quite recently. I don't wear this as much though, as I find it a bit small.

Have a great weekend ahead!

Nonsense. That's a stunning strap, and it complements the Seiko quite nicely.

Very well done!
