New... Strap Alert?

I always wore my Luminox blackout, which is essentially a lightweight plastic case on a rubber strap. When I eventually decided that I want to get another dive watch to replace it, I got a watch with a steel case on a rubber strap, and I hated wearing my new watch. I hated wearing it because it was top-heavy and didn't allow my wrist to breathe, so it was a clunky mess to wear. I love wearing my Christopher Ward on a bracelet nowadays, but sometimes a heavy watch feels suffocating. Maybe I'm just used to lighter watches.
To me, I think it really depends on your father. If you think he'd be offended at the idea of exchanging the watch for something else, then don't bring it up and at best it sits in a little box that you can see occasionally and remember. If you think he'd be receptive to the idea, then at best you have another great sentimental piece. This decision shouldn't be as fatalistic as other people are making it, in my opinion. The watch doesn't represent your guys' relationship, you and your dad do.
Glad to meet you here! I'm finishing up MSE at UCD remotely, so if you're coming to the SoCal Ventura Meetup, I'll be there!
Welcome to WatchCrunch, being from Davis CA, I've met a lot of agricultural engineers. Glad to hear you're able to run a microbrand! Wish you the best success
I think it's such a neat thing that NATO straps can so readily come in so many colors (and patterns! which I think is more interesting personally). If I can find someone to make an HKS livery NATO strap, I'd love to snag one immediately...
