I was loving this watch on a gray ostrich, but I saw this strap and thought it might dress down the watch a bit with it's rugged good looks. This is an Orb strap from 3T member Paul in France and is a great strap and a great value. Thanks Paul!thankyou.gif Very rugged black leather strap with beefy red highlights. Most notably a distinct red X (if Ken were around he might claim the Red X:shock:) which really ties in nicely to the red 12 on the MOLE.:D Gives the watch a bit more rugged appearance and wraps the wrist comfortably. Should break in nicely during the dog days of summer. I'll put on a brushed buckle on it and it'll look fab.

Using the ISSS the Orb gets:

****   Recommended

Darn near perfect, described well by the seller, made well, packed and shipped well, could use some time to adjust to the wearers wrist.


The strap is finished nicely with attention to detail but is a robust leather and will take some break in. I'm looking forward to putting it to task!:D

I hear you guys (O and T) and that was my fear in that this would be too much strap. I'm gonna alternate back and forth for the time being... ah, the joy of strappage!:D

Looking good, but the guys are right...the strap belongs on a slightly more "toolish" watch.  Mine are ready for shipment and I am thinking the Graf - Zeppelin and the Precista PRS-50.

Yep...that's one I ordered...I also got one of the non-grainy versions.  If they wear well, there is a brown one I want.
