Miss opportunity

I think Swatch really made a mistake with the stock bracelet/strap. This small change turned this plastic toy into my summer favorite!

The Moonswatch is fun and handsome. Haters gonna hate. (Unbiased - I don't own one)

Yeah I get why they did it, design-wise it's perfect, but it failed on the comfort factor. For those of us who regularly change straps it's no big deal, and like you I have a NATO, and also a colour coded leather.

But for the non-watch-nerds I guess they're just putting up with it. Maybe it softens after some wear. And to be fair it's still nowhere near the same league as my Timex Expedition. Which I still haven't changed 🙄 Ok, I might do that tonight.

Yeap... I got a friend who wears it as is.... The strap did soften up...

Do you have any recommendations for rubber straps to use with the Moonswatch?
