Love Horween. You should be proud of your craftsmanship. When I was full tilt in my watch collecting I was equally addicted to straps. I have desperately tried to find another version of this leather NATO i purchased for my MM300. The leather was so worn that it changed colors under certain light, positions and oh so soft. I should have never sold it, but I don't own any 20mm watches anymore.

Nice looking there. People seem to love horween leathers.

I have been professionally making custom watch straps for over 6 years now. It is quite the hobby.

Very nice. How funny; a co-worker was wearing one yesterday and it struck my eye. Blue and gold is a nice pairing.

Thank you. I have always wanted this watch and just had to make it happen. Also a local Rolex AD here in Cincy always advertises this exact watch on their billboards on the highway and every time I see it I just want one.

Anyone have a Tissot? Found a sharp all black one but wanted to see if anyone has any positives or negatives about the brand before I purchased. Thanks

Tissot is very storied old brand based out of Biel. My cousin has a T-Touch titanium for about a decade with no issues. Their limited edition automatic's are actually quite nice and a great value. I've eyed a few over the years when they come around at a good price. If looking at Tissot, I'd check out Certina, Glycine, and Oris. Pretty sure all of the three are also made in Biel as well.

I have no negatives with the Tissot brand at all.
