w2w Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 can anyone point me as to where I can source a black rubber PO strap for a POU 45.5mm. I've seen these on the cheaper PO reps but not on the top end ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FxrAndy Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 Silix will sort you out, you may need new spring bars but i think he ships them with the strap now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
its_urabus Posted November 16, 2007 Report Share Posted November 16, 2007 PT can source one for you as well. but you might have to get your own spring bars... my strap should be here anyday... good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neverworn Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 these straps sucks!! even ith the biggest pins there is no way to install them proberly!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baltic Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 I got mine from PT in the UK. I used the pins that came with the bracelet it was originally on and it's been fine for me, no 'pop offs' at all and it's now my gym/swim watch strap.

jeroen1985 Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 Does the rubber strao from Precious Time features the words 'Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean' on the inside.(007strap)??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gargoil Posted November 18, 2007 Report Share Posted November 18, 2007 I've had Silix's version installed with 2mm spring bars, been wearing it almost daily for 5 months still as tight as a virgins.... Only complaint I have it is a magnet for dust!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masan Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Supposedly there is a 1:1 rubber strap coming from Andrew. I emailed him and he confirmed it...will be ready in 1-2 months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jeroen1985 Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 (edited) What's wrong with the strap from PT and Silix? That's also 1:1 ??

Logan Posted November 23, 2007 Report Share Posted November 23, 2007 I have the sillix strap and its really not that well made, Its definitely "replica" quality and not close to 1:1. The cousteau strap for example is in a different league entirely. I'm looking forward to seeing the 1:1 version, I was even considering buying the real thing although it'll cost more than the watch is going on.

yt74 Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 Has anyone heard more about this 1-1 strap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trdsupragt Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 For the gen straps, would I need new springbars? I'm looking to put them on my 42mm PO. If I do need new spring bars, which should I get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seltea Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 I bought one of these last year and had to source and fit the larger springbars. I have been wearing the watch daily for 4 months but I have found the two small bands that hold down the strap keep tearing. One of them is now beyond repair. I wonder if there is a better quality strap coming out . The gen is too expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doc savage Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 I was thinking of ordering the UPO that comes with the rubber strap installed; have people had the same problems with those models? If a better strap is in the works I guess I should order it on a bracelet and wait it out. Those straps look pretty rough in the pics but from searching it seems most are happy with the quality once they get it to fit, right?
