I have shipped all the US preorder and new customer Moray straps, warranty cards, and polishing cloths. I shipped over 120 of them on Monday so you should all get them this week. I do not have the straps, names, or addresses for the EU, International, or Canadian preorder customers. Ralf will be shipping those when he returns from his trip to Asia. Here are some photos of the new strap... ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Some will like it a lot, others will not care much for it. It may be too small for really large wrists. but it is something different for you to try, and I have been wearing mine for 3 days and it is the most comfortable strap I own. I keep picking it up and putting it on, choosing it over my vintage thick style. |

the straps I received were for the watches I received, so if I shipped it for a preorder, or after preorder to international or Canada, I sent a strap. the remaining straps went into the unsold moray boxes on my shelf and that left me with just a few left. Ralf sent me just enough to cover the watches I received. For the preorder customers in Canada, EU and international... Ralf has your straps and will ship them when he returns from Asia in a few weeks. |

This is definitely different from what I was expecting :?. I'm not sure either but before I say I don't like it, I'll wait to see it, we never know, It might become one of my favorite strap! If not, I will PM you Skip and you can have it for shipping cost ;). I would be more than happy to give it to a 3T member that would appreciate it, if I'm not... |

Yes...something special, surprising, and unique from the good guys at Benarus! (I remember Ralf and Steve mentioning this would be out of the ordinary). I have to admit, I let out an audible WOH! when I first saw it. I don't think I've seen a strap that looks quite like this. Steve - do you know if this is an "all leather" strap or is the outer side of the strap a more "unique/exotic skin" of some kind. It's a cool effect and does conjure up thoughts of something from the sea (Oscar I think is right-on with the turtle shell reference). Can't wait to see it in person...heck, mine will probably arrive today since I'm only 1 state away. |

Cool, you can take pics of your silver dial so I don't have to take pics of mine! :) The strap is very unique, and looks really classy on the silver dial. I also added a deployant to mine. It turns it into a nice dress watch. |

I put the strap on my #2 brushed with orange hands and It just doesn't look right. I would have preferred a more subtle strap (smooth black). Sorry, I tried it and took it off never to be put on again. Great watch though! Last edited on Sat Sep 19th, 2009 10:36 am by |

I tried the strap on my BRG but it did not look right, I prefer the BRG on a brown strap. I do like the look on the black faced Dart Dial though, I think it was made for that watch.cool10.gif Anyway I am not ungrateful, thanks Steve and Ralf, I will find a home for this strap. |

I got mine last week, with the warranty card and Benarus cloth. I received the black turtle back pattern and a very nice brown leather strap with cream stitches. I'm not crazy about the black strap but it has the merit of being very original. I prefer the regular Benarus thick leather strap, but it's a question of taste... Thanks Ralf for the extra brown strap ;), it's really nice and as usual, you do the extra step for your customers and I appreciate it! |
