dak244 Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 I apologize up front if this has been a heavily debated topic, but I tried the search function, which a few different phrases, and I got frustrated with it. It doesn't seem to be the best feature on this site Anyway, I have just purchased a 111h, which I am abosultely in love with, so now it is time to go strap shopping. The issue I am having is that I do not like very "obtrusive" straps. I see a lot of peoples straps that are thick and long and "puff" out, and that is not how I like to wear my watch. I am looking for a low profile, "broken in" leather strap. I have been looking at Strapmasters, DON and Bob (including standard and vertigo). I think they are all great straps and love them but need some help, from those who have experience, on the thickness of them. Thanks in advance....

Took a while to warm up to PAMs but now you're in love? If so, then just get a thick strap now so you don't find yourself trying sell off your thin ones in the future.

FxrAndy Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 I have managed to get a good strap from the standard one that arrived on my fiddy, try soaking it in a some diluted bleach for 10 to 15 min and tem with a nail brush scrub off the painted finish leave to dry naturaly and wax with some leather fat, sno seal or dubbing, you might be supprised with the results. they also breakin alot faster after this as well.
