gran Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 WOW ostrich will the blue stickes match well with the watch Billkuk ? For your info: BILLKUK translates to CarCock or alternatively CarPrick in Norwegian... so your handle brings a laugh to my face everytime I read your name Happy timekeeping Gunnar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

URkuk Posted March 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 LOL @carprick...I was actually considering asking admin for permission to change my name but now that I know it has a meaning I will keep it.. I was a bit of a [censored] behind the wheel in my younger days but that was long ago and now I drive like the grandpa I am.. The strap was custom made by a gentleman in Canada. I found a simialr strap he had listed on eBay and he agreed to make me one to fit my BRO3..The photo is his and the strap is in transit to me. Once it arrives I will post photos of the watch and strap combo. The watch is a white dial so I think the strap color and stich ( it's actually army green) will look go well..we shall see.

URkuk Posted March 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 Wow, that doesn't look like any Ostrich I ever saw! Are you sure it's Ostrich??? Most Ostrich straps are made from the body of the animal, they are very smooth with bumps where the quills were. According to the strap maker he uses the skin from the leg which has a very distinct unusual pattern... I likee... I have requested that our glorious Dictator grant my request for an ID change from Billkuk to Urkuk.. He is a reasonable dictator even when muddy so it should not be a problem..
