      Custom can be worth waiting for. I’ll look into it

        They look similar to the Erika's Originals straps.

          Ericas straps are a lot stiffer and use a different method to attach to the watch. Her straps are basically a big loop like a NATO. Nicks straps involve looping the elastic through a metal keeper. There’s no material under the watch head with the hook strap

          I vastly prefer the hook strap over the MN style strap.

          I know violence is not the answer, I got it wrong on purpose

            Thanks @DougNg.

            I thought that Nick's straps were a similar design to Erika's, I hadn't paid that much attention when I checked out his website. They do look good, and I'll have to investigate when I get a new watch.

                    Your wonderfully faded sleeve cuff is distracting @Graeme  😃 😃

                        Die to some late night drinking and eBay browsing, I now have a new watch. It's a pretty faithful remake of a model from 1970-71 that I've liked for years, however, the originals tend to be in poor condition and far more than I'm willing to pay.  I've already ordered a replacement NATO, as this silicone strap is cool looking, but not especially comfortable.

                            Nice!

                            And the world clearly needs more indigo flannels.

                            Think it, be it.

                              Is that the one that’s referred to as the surfboard?

                                  Yep, that's the one.

                                  The originals (there were a couple of regular three handers in addition to the surfboard chrono) were rated to a depth of 666 feet, so they were also called Devil Divers.  I think Bulova missed out by not doing the same with the reissue and putting the 666 on the dial.

                                            Not too bad of a price point…. i think. Not positive of course since i can’t read the description.
