Hi everyone,

I had this made for me recently and just got it in the mail yesterday. It came with a yucky generic strap that I quickly removed and mounted with one of my own custom made straps, the "Pilot" strap. I could not decide which of my straps i wanted to put on it, but this was looked the best. Can I say I LOVE how this combo looks!! I really love this thing so much. I dont want to take it off. I wore it out today and I LOVED watching many of the guys eyes pop out around Sydney as I ran my errands. This thing is fun. What do you guys think. You like?


















Cheers,
-Bas

I think you make very nice looking straps from the pics you have posted so far. I particularly like the large buckles.

Looks amazing Bas! You do incredible work and really know how to capture the essence and connection between the strap and case/dial!
The clean, simple, yet beefy strap is a perfect match to the dial of this Marina Militare. Nicely done and thanks for sharing.

Hello guys, thanks so much for all the great compliments and comments. It is wonderful to hear.

I am still loving this watch. I do love this combo, but I have so many straps and have a hard time deciding which strap to put on it in the mornings. I should do like a blog on what this watch is wearing every day. :)

And no, no photos of me yet. Soon. Having some nice ones made. And as far as the watch some of you asked who made it. Getat did. :)

I got my black face with blue lume from Geatat also. Jacksontse on here also sells MM's and are very reasonably priced.

Thank you. Oh dont worry. I have DOZENS of straps. I make them and sell them. My desk right now has 23 straps that I am working on! Many of those are new styles. Most are customer orders. It's a struggle trying to decide what strap I want to wear on any given day. :)
