It looks like a weirdly tattooed ass all bent over - so the prison reference is become less far fetch by the second.

Just small seconds, and you can get it without the "horizon" coloring, which looks better IMO.

Actually kinda like the watch.

It's called a "fag tag" :cheers:

Look like the maker of the strap made it long just so he can put his branding on it. :scratch: Goofy as hell.

And I can't be the only guy who thinks Timebum's pics are as bad as mine are. :roll:

Just a heads up, they are working on getting another version of strap made for this watch. So this won't be a future issue. :thumbsup:
