So I have 4 Erika’s Originals straps (all purchased from Holben’s), and I love them. Today I received two straps from Watch Steward, an “original” and a “minimalist”. The one pictured is the minimalist on my Citizen “Ray Mears.” The WS straps are WAY stretchier, which made me nervous, wondering if the strap would lose their shape, but man is it comfortable. I’ve only heard good things about both brands, so I’m assuming the WS strap will maintain its shape just fine. I have a Nick Mankey Designs strap on order. I know I’m late to the party, but for a guy who has never really warmed to NATO straps, I’m loving these MN style straps.
I love the WS Straps. Have never had a problem with them.
Have waaaay too many WS straps lol. With shoulderless springbars or screw lugs, they not only are realistically as secure as fixed lugs, BUT they ride just that much lower. 🤏🏻👌🏻😎
Nice! The one I'm wearing today is a standard WS strap. Man, is it comfortable! A little bit of a trick to put it on, but worth it.
I'm a full blown Erika's fanboy. Just like Frank's, I put that sh!t on everything...

Good to hear.

Yes, I like the extra security of Erika’s pass through design, but I love the “low rider” effect of the WS strap.
If the straps come with the cat I am in. 😻
Love those straps! Bausele Field Series on elastic now
