Looks GREaT! Thanks for sharing.

Glad to hear Toshi is good quality.....Which Toshi is it?

I've started a strap hunt and have looked at ABP here in Paris, but €270/300 for a first strap seems a bit steep.....

Looks great Dalip.

Toshi straps are awesome at that price point. Great quality, workmanship and service.

Thinking of getting more straps from Rich soon

The Toshi looks thick and rugged. Suits the sub very well. Colours great too. As for the dive strap, did you give the dive buckle too?

WOW Dalip!!! That color looks amazing. I am thinking that would be a great casual look for my new 177. That strap looks so soft and comfortable...how does it feel on the wrist? Well done!

Thanks Charles....it's a great strap

They are a little thicker at 4mm....but it is wearing in nicely and is so well made. I like the added thickness as a change to the OEM also....the watch sits differently. I tend to go for smaller buckles when having a thicker strap...don't really like the two together. But that's my taste

Dalip congratulations on your choice of a strap maker, Rich (Toshi) makes some cracking straps and I have recently purchased two myself which are "bedding" in nicely.
