mbjoer Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 I have just received an MBW Safari on an SS bracelet, but would like a good strap. Is there anything I need to be aware of before I go ahead and buy it? And any inspirational pictures?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiker01 Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Dude....theres nothing out there for MBW ROOs! MBW case is not the same spec as the GEN, so you can't get it from anywhere! Your alternative is a special order......maybe from HKTAN! Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indyberetta Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 I've had no problems placing a Oracle strap on my AP ROO MBW watches. I just sold my one MBW with a kevlar Oracle strap on it using the deployment. I also have a carbon fiber and a hornback from Oracle too.

hiker01 Posted February 24, 2010 Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Sorry, I forgot about Oracle, but I didn't know they make it fot the MBW! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbjoer Posted February 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2010 Thanks for this, guys. Do you have a link to Oracle handy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bosk Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 Thanks for this, guys. Do you have a link to Oracle handy? Oraclestraps.com seems to be down. perhaps he's not around anymore. I agree that oracle fits the MBW watches perfectly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbjoer Posted February 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 Oraclestraps.com seems to be down. perhaps he's not around anymore. I fear that may be the case. This has not worked for quite some time, so was hoping there was another link.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mbjoer Posted March 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 http://www.watch-line.com/classifieds.php?a=2&b=703 Thanks for this. Guess that is the remaining part of Oracle's activities??? Anyhow have decided for a hornback. It just looks so good. But from where? HKTan seems to have a good name, but how well will his strap fit?

MBK (narikaa) has a great hornback for $160 which aside from the painted edge - is as close to gen as I've seen: My MBK Safari: Hope this helps Edited March 2, 2010 by Lemmy Caution Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbjoer Posted March 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 It certainly does. Thanks. Will shoot him a PM straight away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemmy Caution Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 Cool - make sure that it includes the conversion kit and a clasp. (If I recall correctly, it does) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StormTooper4 Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Can the end links be reused on the MBW's steel bracelet to hold the strap? Thats the first thing to work out. If not try to source an MBW strap from one of our dealers, cheap rubber version maybe the easiest option you could post a WTB. Then I'd go for an HKTan Hornback they are really very good. <script </noscript> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
