A drunk made a delivery

Post by Danny_T » Wed Sep 02, 2015 8:15 pm

Well after being gone for a week on what I thought would be a somewhat relaxing vacation, I came home and back to work more f'd up than when I left. But that's another story. What made me smile is when my Dad said a package arrived while I was gone. He handed it to me, and oh yeah........the man, the myth, the legend, the drunk delivered some stellar quality goodies :)

Art is the man. Thx bro once again.


This arrived......

With these inside :)

Now I have to choose what watches to put them on and then punch the buckle holes. I couldn't do it tonight since my son won't go to sleep and kept coming to the dungeon where I was and where I do my watch work.

I'll post some watches and get you guys input.

Very nice! I would punch my own holes, but I don't have the professional grade punchers to make it look, well professionally punched and clean.
It's a beautiful world! Gerald.

Sold my punch along with a bunch of 24mm straps a while back.


Might have made "too big a production" out of adding a couple of holes to the Drew strap that came on Chris's Raven.

(not all tools used to make the holes)

I had that tool, Art.

I threw the punch into the "7 Strap 24mm Strap Sell-Off".


Poor choice on my part, but one of the straps had only one hole.

And as per Art's recommendation after punching the holes to keep them from fraying.
