I will say that the Zodiac is a 20mm tapering to 18mm strap, so it's got a nice vintage vibe to it, but my personal preference for straps that are 20mm wide or less would be to have a straight 20mm strap with no taper (as those offered by Bonetto Cinturini and Isofrane for example). All my opinion, of course, but I think the 20mm-18mm tapered strap looks just a little bit undersized on this one given the watch size, but I'm getting used to it after a couple days. The cool thing about the BC 281 is that it looks like the strap flares a bit past the lug width, and then finally tapers very little to 20mm, so it may have the appearance of a slightly wider strap. I may have to try one. BTW (which do you prefer?...looks like you've been going between the BC281 and the BC321 on your various Sharkmaster versions!). Good stuff there! |

Funny you should mention the Bergeon...I finally picked one up a month-and-a-half ago after using some of the cheaper options out there for years (ordered the 6767-F tool which has the narrow fork good for ss bracelets, and also ordered the replacement tip for the 6767-S, which is the wider/flat fork for use with leather and rubber straps so I could have both mounted on each end of the tool). Well worth it to have a high quality tool, and I don't know what took me so long. |

I finally got the rubber Cuda strap to fit on my A2, I had to take a razor blade and thin it out a bit near the spring bar holes, but now its on, and I love it on rubber! BTW Stew, that Sea Wolf is BEAUTIFUL! I cant stop looking at it! ![]() ![]() Last edited on Wed Apr 13th, 2016 03:53 pm by PowerChucker |
