    Post your Tuna's on Leather!

    It seems every time I get in a funk about watches I think about getting another Seiko Tuna. I don't think I have to go into too much detail about the great bracelet on the SBBN015, the incredible lume and finish. My first Tuna was an 007 which was great on Watchadoo and leather (a 24mm GSD squeezed into the 22m lugs). I didn't have any trouble getting the leather strap on. It looked awesome as well.

    When I got my last Tuna (015), I just couldn't fit any leather straps on it. I'm not sure if the clearance for straps was less than on the 007.... I have seen Isofranes on it as well. If I do get another Tuna, I'll also throw it on Shark Mesh as well.

    So I have a request: Please post your Tuna's on leather (and the maker of the strap if you know it)
    and a related Tuna/Strap question... will using springbars with a smaller end compared to the fat spring bars wear the holes irregularly?

    Thanks!
    Neil

    SBBN007 on a 22mm Benarus leather strap. The strap will accept the Tuna's fat spring bars. Not sure about thinner bars.
