Watches - another OCD problem

My 4 1/2 year old daily worn Marathon Chronograph Pilot Watch (It's a beast!)
I just bought a Feit handmade Bund Strap watchband for it (In naturale)
From the site:
The Bund Strap watchband was first used by WWII pilots because of its insulating properties. The leather band would ensure that the watch face would not freeze or burn a pilot’s wrist as they were exposed to extreme conditions.Feit Strap finally showed up today after a one month 6 day trip from "down unda"!
Installed and I LIKE IT!

Anyone had any personal experience with Toshi straps?
I've got one, strap is good, customer service is excellent.
+1, buy with confidence

Me too. Awesome strap and service. He's very, very serious about meeting his self imposed deadlines as well. My only complaint is the watch I got the strap for is currently broken! The strap was tougher than the Lum-Tec!

Just ordered a couple of straps from here:

Natty CXL watch strap for $40???

I thought it was worth a look. Bought two in 'Natural', one 18mm (stainless steel stud) for a smaller aviator watch, and one 22mm with a black stud for a Seiko 007 my GF just gave me as a present. I'd like the more expensive cordovan, but they were out of the colours I wanted and, to be honest, I got two of these for the same price and they look pretty good!

Very cool!

Vostok Amphibia is a great watch for the price. I dig those old Russian movements, too. Rough looking as hell, but tough.

Awesome mate, I'm wearing the 007 variety myself at the moment on (yes I'm sad) a NATO James Bond Strap. I like the GMT bezel on yours though, very cool.

New toy:
Bought a Vostok off eBay after i saw that. Lucifer, I'm blaming you for this one…

Here's a (poor) snap of mine:

Cheers! I went for the black/grey option, but you can get one with the more 'authentic' Bond tiny red stripe as well, which would look good on yours.
Check out these guys on eBay:

I've been on a thin watch/dress watch streak lately so this Zenith handwinder at 7mm thick is perfect.
