1 x 5514 for Hawaiian Much mahalos for all your efforts!!!

what a surprise...congrats bruddah!

awesome work as always paul...put me down for the complete package as well...dial, hands, case

well there she is perfection my friend and a huge congrats to ya on another vintage beauty

brah...we need ta go ta genki soon!... that is absolute perfection...can't even see one misstep from gen...so stoked for ya bu and just another beauty by zig!

much mahalos my friends for all the kind wordz...gone thru the ringer trying out so many different models, but these 5 (and a couple others ) are my topz and the ones i find myself gravitating ta consistently @13x...the strap on the 24C is simona gator...awesome stuff and the color i thing watches the watch and t dial...i also bought a oem jv for her, but haven't even mounted it cause i like the simona so much @lani...got a couple of other things brewin, but after seeing whatz comin to ya i may have to try and search the globe for the parts ta do a 202 right...that thing is ridiculous and i can't wait ta meet up when you get her

right on my braddahz... well, got them mounted on the ladies and took a couple of wristies w/ the morning light so you can see the true color kampschwimmer on 243... egi on 201... i gotta say the egi is my fav of the two...just has a super soft feel about her and the color tones look like they'll only get better w/ age

alrighty kids...my wotancraft straps and buckle have arrived today and so i thought i'd do a little review of my experience and end result:D first off i was not quite sure if these guys were really legit and if the straps and buckles were as good as they looked in the pictures, but after i had read tswisst's thread and several members had chimed in that they were satisfied i said screw it and ordered a egiziano strap, a kampfschwimmer strap, and a buckle. about an hour after checking out through pp i got a email confirmation from wontancraft saying: Dear Sir/ Madam, Thank you for purchasing WOTANCRAFT products. Your payment had been received. I will process your orders as fast as possible. The lead time of HandMade Strap Order will be 15~20 business days. I will send a notification in advance if the schedule is full. All packages will be sent via EMS. I ship worldwide! Thanks again! Hope you enjoy it! Sincerely, WOTANCRAFT www.wotancraft.com i felt pretty good and now just had to wait a couple of weeks until 5 days ago i got a delivery confirmation saying that my order had been shipped...4 days later they arrived here, but i was out when they came yesterday so went to pick up today. the reason i included this is that they quoted 15-20 business days and by my calculations that's 10 business days until shipped and a total of 13 till they were in my hands which for me is a big deal...i always love business and individuals that under promise and over deliver and they definitely did that:D upon opening the package i can say that i was blown away...the packaging was nice and upon opening the first box which was the buckle, the first thing that pops out at you is a thank you card w/ product info...then i got a glimpse at the product and included in the box was a nice buckle but also a screwdriver...saweet!... so i'm stoked and now wondering what the straps look like...i open up the first strap box again to find a thank you note and then the strap...the kampschwimmer encased in an airtight package. i take it out and then noticed that there is something else...a sub keychain w/ a nice leather loop....saaaaweet. then under all this is a nice bag for the strap...kewl. so after all this...how are the straps?...well i gotta say that they're pretty dope...nice soft feel, craftmanship is there and they look as they did in the pics:) ...my only knock on them is the sewn-in buckle which is a little weak/light...definitely not the gpf buckles you'll find on a gunny, but they're ok. overall i'm very satisfied w/ the entire experience from beginning to end...the prices for the straps were $159 each and the buckle was $49 and based on what i got and how i got it i feel that the price points are justified and i'd buy again:D so that's about it from the middle of the pacific except i'll let the gazillion pic do the rest of the talking;) what i received... buckle... kampschwimmer... egiziano...
