Just got a Seiko5 pepsi, first order of business was the strapcode presidential style, worth every penny definitely elevates the watch in every conceivable way! Glad to finally find somebody on RUclips with the exact same taste in bracelets as myself!
No doubt the Strapcode bracelet elevates the watch to another level. Nice to have options. Regarding leather straps on divers, some OEMs offer that as an option such as with the Oris 65. Of course, aftermarket there are plenty of waterproof leathers and other diver based straps to choose from. I say wear what you like, no rules. 👍🏻
Thank you. I just met a gentlemen, he had an old diver on Racing leather strap. It actually looked really good. He said he had it on that leather for 5 yrs. still looked good. All different but all the same.
@@LeoVinteler this is probably a stupid question but I just bought my first watch in over 20yrs (blue Orient Kamasu) and was wondering if you could add AR coating to the sapphire crystal… or would you have to just purchase the AR-coated sapphire crystal separately?
Yo. Your watch is NOT an "ICELANDER", it's an "ISLANDER". Anyhow, nice choices and bracelets. Cheap watches are cheap for a variety of reasons, but the bracelet upgrade sure improves the appearance anyhow. Enjoy.
I can't stand the end links though. 🤦🏻♂️Not to mention the bulk of the clasp; it's just not for me. I'm trying to get one for my Mako 2, but I can't pay almost $100 (I'm Canadian) on something like that. Can you tell I'm frustrated? (LOL) Orient did send one lady a smaller clasp, but that's another $20. So close to perfection… so close.
I just picked up a high end strap code for SKX but to be honest after spending 125 bucks I expected more it got all scratch up just after wearing it the first day not yes it was better that my stock seiko strap but not worth 125 bucks
Was it the Endmill or the regular oyster one. I can’t speak for that bracelet, only for the ones I have. You did pay allot of money, you should be happy with the bracelet
Marc obviously doesnt buy bracelets from strapcode, they just come from the same factory. A lot of these parts, like the clasp, you can buy on aliexpress for 3-4 times cheaper than strapcode.
That's what i did,i just ordered a clasp on Aliexpress for my kamasu,i can live with hollow end links and i got some time if i ever have any issue with the endlinks i'll find something else to put it on

It looks great on the Pepsi. Enjoy.

wish they made Endmill for my Triton, but I bought the polished Boyer instead (the polished version of the oyster you showed)
Where did you get that crystal and bezel for the Orient. It just looks awesome.
From Mark at Long Island Watches. Has everything you need to mod most watches.

@@greg6162 you will have to change it. Mark at Long Island Watches has them
Cheers 🍻
Thank you for putting me on to strapcode.
No problem. I figured I spent allot of money on those bracelets, others should too 😎🍷 to you.
Thx for watching.

Thank you. Islander it is. 🍷 to you.
I bought the Angus-J for my Triton and love it. I also bought the sapphire insert from Marc. My watch looks great
Angus-J is an awesome bracelet. Was thinking about it. Enjoy
Where do you purchase the sapphire inserts for the Triton?
Great video review. Watched it because I think about an order from strapcode and I was curious to hear your opinion.
They are very nice Tim, no joke. You’ll like it

Any mods done to the orient? Looks very sharp!!
Yes. Coin bezel dd sapphire and sapphire insert. I’ll do a video about it at some point.
It does look like an Omega now. Lol
That Orient looks the business
Thank you. 🥃

Spend a hundred on a Strapcode bracelet, and your watch looks two hundred more expensive.
I have 3 seiko 5s with the hex bracelet, they look badass
Somebody needs to start making more black and gunmetal selections, they suck in that regard
