So, over the last two weeks I have been selling off a few gen pieces on Watchuseek to build some funds for our lovely hobby, and took in a few trades as well to keep the collection ever changing. I managed to get my hands on a quartz 1000m diver from Deep Blue, the Sea Quest, in their red metallic sunray dial, and am very impressed with the overall build quality (having not owned a Deep Blue since their budding days, just before and around the time they started showing on ShopNBC).
Anyways, back to the reason that I am posting this in regards to the JLC Navy Diver... I noticed that the lug positioning on this Deep Blue is VERY close to the case, and it reminded me of how tight of a fit there is with the JLC, so I decided to see just how well the black caoutchouc strap could work. Lo and behold, the strap fits almost perfectly as any semi curved leather strap would fit on a JLC like this. Though it does not fit exactly up to the edge of the case, it is tight enough to hide any major gap between the strap and case, and holds very nicely underneath the case due to its' design. I do not have any picutres of the fit right now, but will snap some tonight and post them for any curious NSD owners looking for a nice alternative to the straight edged caoutchouc straps out there.
Have fun!
