cheaper, but just as good.

Just received this tropic style strap from watch gecko which was ~$60, instead of ~$80 for the original TROPIC straps (which I also own). Honestly, th...

Sometimes aftermarket is better.

I just could not deal with the stock Velcro strap that came with the FXD, no matter how hard I tried. I prefer this ribbed nato from WatchGecko 1000%

I can tell that does loook legit! Was it the stock strap that came with the watch?

Undoubtedly it is, you are right. But the trade off vs. the feeling of premium quality you get is worth it (IMO).

Honestly I think the level of finishing here for that price is great value. This is the kind of watch that looks plain on pictures, but pops on the wrist. Enjoy!

Sorry I tried to reply earlier, but it looks like my reply might have been dropped because I shared a link… I bought my KSK soon after it came out for a little under $3k. These days I see near mint ones listed for under $1900

I agree and the only good thing about them being so underrated is that you can now pick them up at steep discounts.

Taxes in, $428 for a brand new watch. From a site called “Shop Premium Outlets”. Unfortunately they are no longer running the promotion I took advantage of!

the strap was so long… maybe if you have a much larger wrist?!

I now see the light!

I was never a fan of rubber straps, as I have generally found every OEM rubber strap that’s come with a watch I’ve bought to be uncomfortable. But dec...

Unexpected, but it works!

I really wasn’t sure about this nato in what would call “rust” color, but I’m digging it!

FXD on Braided Strap

Wasn’t sure is this was going to work, but I think so! It’s also fairly thin, which helps keep the thickness of the watch in check.

Rubber NATO perfection

This rubber nato strap complements the military vibes of this Sinn so well. Also smells fantastic
