        @BLACKFROSTT:

        😘 😘 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!

                  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!

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

                              Nothing huge, but it's first watch I got myself with my first paycheck. This is a good feeling…

                                  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.

                                      I'm already looking at the one with the black bezel (007J)! Perhaps would get it in the next few months.

                                          That NATO matches the bezel really well!

                                            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:

                                            http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/mickie500?_trksid=p2047675.l2559 - he makes the actual MOD used Phoenix Straps

                                            http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/aliasmarlow?_trksid=p2047675.l2559 - this guy makes some great 'screen accurate' Bond straps.
