Toshi Straps
I now have three Toshi straps and I thought they would be worth a short review. They aren’t particularly cheap but are all made to order, so you choose the leather, the stitching colour, the stitching style, the width, the length, the end shape, the metal wear and the number of keepers. All very customisable.
I have a papaya strap in 18mm, a black strap in 20mm and a cognac Shell Cordovan in 20mm.
I’m really impressed with all three. The papaya and black straps are both a number of years old now and have aged really nicely. Both are quite thick, but very comfortable. The cognac strap is newer and being Shell Cordovan it shows very little (actually none to date) creasing. It is also thinner.
Richard is very easy to deal with. Communication is great and he checks all details before starting work and giving you an ETA. His website is certainly worth a browse..

I really like the one you put on the Speedmaster...
and one on the sub also suits so well.. i like the color schemes...
the one on the Rotary seem a bit thick, but the color is nice and look fine on your wrist...

I've owned a few Toshi straps in the past, and can say they're pretty good. Generally on the thick end lending well to a nice chunky diver.

They are chunky aren't they?

I agree with all your points. The Dub on the black works well doesn't it?
