[bedlam]

I got people

Yes. It was not posted too.

Gotta post a lot, help people, build friendship with members and they'll let you know what they want to move before they post them FS I got lucky on this one, right time right place

This is true. Some of my best pickups have come from back channel offers from people I have helped along the way when they needed an assist.

Any chance you know how it compares to JSAR rubber? I've been thinking about getting a second JSAR strap to put on my Bluering.

Don't know the JSAR rubber. I first got on to these straps as they were the rubber sent with my DWatch Stingray. They are now my favourite strap bar none.

A tip: when they are brand new, roll them tightly into a spiral and bind them in a rubber band for a couple of days. Then they are already well on the way to being molded to your wrist shape. They mold over a month or two any way but it speeds the process as the rubber is pretty thick and not as malleable as the cheaper silicon straps initially.

I've owned the Gsar, Dwatch, Bali Hai and they all use this same rubber.
I bought some extra from chris at Bali Hai for 20 or 25 bucks. He sells them on his accessory page.

You also ought to try the smooth Maratac rubber with deployant buckle. It's 20-30$ too, easy to wear with any watch. Simple shape.
Raza, what's your wrist size?

That's how I found and bought quite a few in the past. I like buying under the radar. Remember when I was hot for your s/s Seawolf Brice? You gave me dibs when you finally decided to flip,(Besides, I knew all of your watches are eventually going to hit "the corner" no matter how much you say "it's a keeper" lol ).
Example:
Me: Hey Brice,
How's it going Buddy?
I see you bought an Avenger Seawolf. I saw it too. I guess you beat me to it.
So, how you liking it?
Brice: Hey Dave,
I love it, I can't take it off. It's my grail!
Me: Sweet! So, how much you want for it?
Brice: Not for sale Dave. It's a keeper!

A few days later....
Brice: Hey Dave, I'm selling the Seawolf. You want it?
LOL!
But, by that time I had already bought my Super Avenger, so I had to turn down a sweet deal.
Brice is right, it really helps to make a lot of friends here. If you're cool. You win

Grand pa, you're still up?? maybe you woke up to change your Depend? and give me crap while you were up I love you man
To my defense, I only sold it to buy another Seawolf

But hey, keeper is a mater of perspective... I keep them... just not that long

I'll have to try that with my GSAR rubber (on my Sumo). It's much thicker than the JSAR rubber and is taking much longer to break in. I updated my thread with a couple of shots of my Bluering, but here's one for you:



I might put it back on the black Glycine leather:



I'm thinking about picking up a 22mm white stitch Bradystraps Sailcloth, a brown/tan Hirsch Liberty, and a 22mm JSAR strap as well.

Raza, what's your wrist size?

Just under 8". Haven't measured it properly, but I'd say 7 3/4" or 7 7/8".

Isn't the Maratac rubber silicone? I have some Modena straps and they are lint magnets.

Also use sites like watchrecon.com Daily That's how I found the blue one two weeks ago.
I think google also some auto notification process for things you look for.

Those Bluering don't come up FS often but you should post a WTB in various forums.

That was fast, Brice. Very fast.

that leather looks good on the Bluering.

I can't really find a strap that doesn't look good on a BR
