So fast forward a number of PM’s and Marty was generous and offered to make a few straps for me. He did, and can I tell you they were absolutely awesome! (posted in another thread here). Then I said “man....would these be even more awesome if they were padded!” Now it takes a skilled strap maker to properly and evenly make a fine padded strap. You have to ensure proper thickness and padding to add, proper taper, as well as how long the padding will be to ensure the buckle holes can be punched and strap can be fastened properly. Lots of little ‘extra’ steps are required to nail it down. Mr. Marty said “sure” and when these beauties arrived, I can tell you, he nailed it down like a pro!
Since this adventure it is my pleasure to report that Marty Straps will now offer his straps for sale to watch nuts like us to thoroughly enjoy and fill our strap drawers like we fill our watch boxes.
To contact Marty for a custom made strap to fit your style and watches he can be reached at martystraps@gmail.com
You've seen the other straps he's made me, this slideshow is some of the fine padded examples he has created.
Cheers,
Danny
