Casio F91 Strap Mod part 2

Finally got my strap shipment in from Aliexpress. I had decided to give the metal strap a go, so I ordered two different styles and opted for this one.

I reused the original pins for the F91, since I wasn't sure if the supplied strap pins would fall out of the drilled lugs. I did have to look up a picture of the back of an F91 on Amazon to see which directions the pins went, since the band had broken away previously.

It wasn't difficult, mostly just using the tiny hammer to pop them back into place. I did have to use a pin tool with the hammer to push the pins in flush with the lugs.

Overall, I liked how it turned out, since it is kind of a mash-up of the F91 and A158.

Not sure how long the finish will last on the bracelet; however, for under $3 it's a good investment to upgrade a watch I paid just under $10 years ago, rather than paying $16 for a new one with a strap that wouldn't last a year.

Thank you! This was my favorite strap out of the bunch. Hindsight being 20/20, I'd have gotten all of them like this. However, a good takeaway is experiencing these straps and knowing how they feel, etc.
