Let’s see those strap buckles!
Marathon NATO straps are on sale - how much is too much?
Call all divers! What watch do you dive with?

I agree! I have a new strap incoming and have to see if I have the right hex wrench to remove the stupid spring bars. Any strap recommendations?
It may! I had a staib polished mesh, and it was too blingy, but maybe the brushed version would have been better. I bet the Forstner beads of rice, which has alternating brushed and polished links, would look nice too!
Hey there - I actually sold it about a year ago. In total, I had it about a year. I liked it, but just didn’t love it after that time. I found that I wanted something a little less dressy and the full polish case didn’t suit my style as much as I thought. Plus, I wanted a bracelet option and the mesh ones I tried were just too blingy.
I mostly wore it on a horween leather strap, and on NATOs a lot. I loved haveston parade straps as they are a bit shinier and matched the case well. It looked great on perlon straps too!
Yes - I have my grandfather's gold Elgin shockmaster from the late 1950s/early 60s. It is 30mm in size and doesn't work, but it's pretty to look at!
I ended up selling this Damasko. I found it wore just a little too big for me. My wrist size is ~6.25”. Loved it otherwise, and hope they release a 36mm version someday!
I wore the cream dial SNK for about 4-5 years back when I was a one-watch-person and didn’t have this watch collecting disease so badly! Like you, I wore and loved the stock strap, but it eventually wore out - bought a couple leather straps and it really dresses up! Looks great on this olive green leather strap IMO!
