Really been debating looking into a ranger… I see so many people saying the dial is boring but I just love it

Look into single pass style nato straps. CNS paratrooper straps and Crown and Buckle chevron straps are both ones I’ve had and really liked that never added any bulk under the watch, as well as not having that huge bit of excess.

What a bummer. I’ve spent the past half hour scouring the same sites I’m sure you have hoping to find something in stock with no luck sadly. I do agree with the other comment, don’t worry about it looking small because it doesn’t at all to me, I think those really shortly extended lugs make it nice and compact which might add to that sense.
