That is one of my all time favorite straps! My only problem is that they want just as much to ship it as to buy it (almost)... I'm not cheap, but I am THRIFTY.... :banghead:

Welcome on board, Liz! :salute:

Paul - I don't wear the SEAL, but I think NATO is the way to go. It's the only thing I wear my Soarway Diver on. :thumbsup:

The slant in the lugs make it wear really well on the NATO straps (moreso on the SD because of the thinner caseback, but the same thing still applies to the SEAL).

Hey, Matt...

Natos are the business, alright! I only have two of them, though. One I cut too short and one that is really cheap and thin. I need to get a good one. I've always wondered about leather> They look SO cool! My other problem with Natos are that my wrist changes thickness about half an inch during the day, so they are kind of a pain to get exactly right.. :think: You don't encounter that?

Yeah shipping isn't cheap, so I ordered 3 of them. Also I like the fact that they are so soft and don't attract dirt like my old vanilla band. Out of the last 8 rubber bands I have owned they have been the best so far. :rock:

Thanks, Mike! That is exactly right! I must have clicked on something else last I checked.. :doh: That means I can get the retro 22mm for about 27 bucks delivered. A bargain at twice the price!

Welcome to the asylum, Liz! :cheers: Your presence is welcome here any time of the day, as are your wonderful photos. Except for this one:

Even you can't help my ugly mug. Daniel, on the other hand (the original owner/creator of the legendary "Semi-TAC"), looks pretty good. :gayumbrella:

I'm probably going to have to pick up one of these Ted Su bad boys soon. Nice choice, Bill (and they're a cinch to adjust on the fly, Paul... ;) ).

PS - Damn, I love the SEAL! :love:
