Bronze.................

Post by toxicavenger » Sun Jul 16, 2017 1:58 pm

I am trying to get a few Shiznit straps made with bronze hardware. It just takes for ever to get shit done. I am still waiting on my Navy blue Shiznits. :banghead:

I agree. Always people looking for natos with actual bronze. Get them and promote the hell out of them.

Will you have 24mm? A lot of these bronze watches are 24mm lugs

They are. That is why I will only do a few of them for a bit. I can't do 24mm right now. I need way too much cash to get the molds made. :banghead:

Honestly I thought about it, but I can't take someone's money as a loan. :shrug: Maybe my thoughts will change on that later but I don't think it will. Hell I don't even sell many 23/23mm straps at all. And I lost my ass on the 23mm straps I had made. :banghead:

Whenever you get them, put me down for at least one of them.

I know where you're coming from, but think about this, they are giving you the money because they want the product. As long as you trust your partners/suppliers, I don't see anything wrong with it.

I do agree with that. But for example I have had the order in for Navy blue straps for over 3 months now, and they still aren't done. :banghead: That would be heartbreaking to not be able to meet deadlines that are set with someone else cash. :crybaby:

Just keep Yao out of it! LOL

But seriously, the only NATO I could find withe bronze while I had my Helson was too thick and too short. Kickstarter sounds like a good idea to me. Just do frequent updates with details if there are supplies delays.

Honestly, if I had found some nice natos on 20mm or 22mm with real bronze hardware, I would have kept the Carl Brashear Oris longer.
