b16a2 Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 I would give preference to the first one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dadog13 Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 the 1st one is on my wishlist too...nice looking one...go for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stenofsweden Posted May 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 Yea, the 1st one is my first choice... SC has a 15% discount at the moment, I think I will pull the trigger later today. I have never had a Ti watch before, but I think the combo will be nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazarini Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 (edited) My vote is for strap choice 1 from ure list. Have a titanium 118 and simmilar colour strap, not that vintage looking do but anyway a nice combo . regards laz Edited May 22, 2007 by lazarini Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doopey Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 Strap no 1 and please show us some pics with that strap on the 176. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madasboot Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 IMHO you should go for the second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stenofsweden Posted May 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 The ultimate would have been if some forum member have the strap and a Ti watch to show $100 is alot of money if the combo sucks! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HauteHippie Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 The ultimate would have been if some forum member have the strap and a Ti watch to show $100 is alot of money if the combo sucks! Cheers If the combo sucks, that strap will sell for near full price anyhow. I like #1. It reminds me of a Crazy Horse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stenofsweden Posted May 22, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 Hmmm... now I even found this one, tan C look great... The upside with Hktan is that I can customize it, the SC is 5,5mm thick and I would like it a little thinner HkTan has a good reputation so I can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HauteHippie Posted May 22, 2007 Report Share Posted May 22, 2007 HKTan straps are not as nice in my honest opinion. They are very stiff and uncomfortable. And whatever he uses to treat the edges is very brittle, so it cracks easily and then doesn't look so good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HauteHippie Posted May 24, 2007 Report Share Posted May 24, 2007 Hmmm... I do not share your experience. Cool. Maybe you'd like to buy my VERY lightly used HK Tan vintage (from the 50's) Italian bomber jacket strap, then. Worn all of twice. I'll make you a good deal.

stenofsweden Posted May 25, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2007 The Crazy Horse is awesome. But since you had a $100 budget I didn't suggest it. You're gonna love it. He had one "made to go" so I was not that far away from my budget...I made a good deal I think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
