mellons Posted September 30, 2013 Report Share Posted September 30, 2013 i thought it would be interesting to see what other strap options there are out there for the obris morgan explorer. Here are a few combos I tried myself to kick off. If you have others please post! from initial images it looked so well on the bracelet I thought it had been designed for it. On receipt straight away I opted for the oem rubber, my default fav for a dive watch. The supplied rubber is no isofrane but it is the equal to similar offerings by helson/ armida imho I then tried it on a waterproof sharkie (budda jones strap modded by dow) with sewn-in pre-v sterile buckle. Very comfortable Then back to a natural rubber strap- a bonetto cinturini. Very comfortable and weighed in at only 113g finally i went back to the bracelet. Here it is sized for 7.5" wrist. The bracelet has chunky screw-pins and it brings the combined wright up towards 200g. Fit and finish is great, signed clasp etc. Quality on a par with strapcode etc. Looks super- a dress tool diver! All in an amazing offering for under $300- I keep comparing this to armida/ helson etc. Bezel action is similar to my old helson sharkmaster and dial/ hands look great. Accuracy is within + 10 secs per day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike on a bike Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 Beat me to it been eying one of these since pre-order period, just to similar to my Nevon from them to go for it. This is my exact watch a matter a fact this is my watch, I ordered a custom configuration they did not offer. They liked it so much they put up on their site. Were kind enough to ask, good guys over there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B3nj4min3 Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 The Explorer looks like an amazing watch for the price. I can't believe they ship for free internationally and included a bracelet! At that price, I'd be stupid not to get one! Thanks for sharing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
