Thats one of the new big beefy seiko Divers... but not a franken.. Franken is a term used when a watch is put together with different parts from different watches.. The term Franken comes up alot with seiko's since so many of their parts are interchangable... and so since it might still be from a seiko the watches used are usally not of the same style... Just a note, I wouldn't want a great watch like that called a franken.. Most would say a shrouded Diver |

Noah you are absolutely correct, some careless WIS somewhere nicknamed it a "frankenmonster" or "frankentuna" and it should just be against the rules to name a watch "franken...anything" Besides it really complicates things now I have to call mine a "FrankenFrankenmonster" ![]() Surely these models deserve a better nickname!!! How about the Techno-Monster?? happy1.gif oh ya, Tony that strap does look great on there! Last edited on Wed Feb 27th, 2008 10:12 pm by OldeCrow |

Hey guys. I'm looking for a good quality natural rubber strap for a J-SAR in another color (orange). Hoping it to be the same quality strap that comes in black already for the JSAR. Is there a site other then watch prince to get them? Thanks for the help. |

Orange is a tall order... These are ok... But I am certain nowhere near the quality of the supplied rubber. http://www.modenawatch.com/searchquick-submit.sc;jsessionid=6165F5589D43F54BECB48A22BA4A4731.qscstrfrnt01 |

I'm with you on that...the quality on some of those I posted is questionable...the last one 'italian' looks good however.

Yeah the Ialian orange rubber band looks like a very good quality strap. thanks for the help everyone. Does anyone have a JSAR on a orange or red band? Would be interested in seeing it. |

It appeared you had your mind made up.:? |

Well I think this is the one to go on the JSAR. Looks really beefy and will look sharp. 4mm thick. 20mm Stainless Steel Deployant buckle. Free set of 22mm spring bars. 7.5 inches long and on your watch these will fit any wrist up to 9 or 9.5 inches Attachment: modena rubber strap.jpg (Downloaded 43 times) |
