That strap was made by Drew for the Raven Vintage I sold you (I think).

Apparently not, Chris.

I found a picture of that combo (pretty sure it's yours).


That strap was thinner and had a different stitch color.

That was a great combo. I regret selling that.

Sometimes I miss shogun. It was light and compact, disappeared on the wrist. Kinda like small Sebenza disappearing in the pocket

I missed my original one. Hard to believe it, but I truly like this version more!

I’ve been passively searching for an orange one for years. Prices are ridiculous.

Agreed. Had it mounted on a dark green Isofrane, and was about to move it to a turquoise, but decided that orange would look good. Your comment about orange made me want to try it, and I love it!

I’d send it to Duarte to have the tip of the seconds hand painted orange.

Interesting combo.

Just withdrew the San Martin from sales post.

When I get around to it, might give the orange a shot.
