Spartacus Maximus Prototype

[hktan]

Hey Guys,

I am thinking of working on this strap asgain.

I give you the - The Spartacus Maximus

Please feel free to give me your thoughts, ideas and criticisms.

Your feedback is greatly appreciated.

Have a great weekend guys!

The design is a bit "Village People" for my taste and conservative environment ... but I love the colour of that leather.

Clearly, there is no faulting your craftsmanship.

To be really critical, (well, you did ask), I think that the stitching on the keepers is distracting and conflicts with the visual flow of overall design. There is so much happening on this strap already, that the contrast stitching on the keepers goes one step too far.

Just one man's opinion.

I'd be grateful if you would PM me the cost of a standard 24/22 strap in this leather.

Regards,

Clive

It's a little bit too much for me, HK

I like big watches and big straps, but 26 mm is my max.

It distracts the attention away from the watch completely.

and isn't the purpose of a good strap too highlight the watch instead of the other wayaround ?

regards, Gerco

ps:

This is the largest strap i'm wearing:

But i'm sure you'll find buyers. Good luck !

Not if you make your living out of watch straps ...

It's too much for me, but I wouldn't be at all surprised to see one on someone.

BDSM STRAP.

I've heard a story...about a King ordering someone to make a beautiful box for his big diamond.

So they made the most beautiful box in the world and it is so beautiful that the beauty went over the diamond.

(or something like that...I'm not good in telling stories)

But you get what I mean, let the watch be the center of attraction, not the strap.

I like it. It's insane but in a cool way.

[leitztozeiss]

Aaron I don't like it my friend...

Looks like the gladiator is back in town

Those straps are ok for Diesel watches

[dadog13]

to be honest I dunno if i like it or not...I am sure not mad about it..but it would be nice to have it and try it...just in that moment i could tell you what i think...

...but for sure it is different from all the straps i've ever seen!

Hi All,

Thank you all for taking time out and giving me your thoughts and critcisms on this strap.

I have built only 3 so far. I will look into stream lining the design so it wont look to blocky or wide.

Best regards and sincere thanks,

Aaron HKTAN
