Next week it will be 10 years since I first picked up a round knife and cut my first leather watch strap. Since then I've made close to 15,000 watch straps and sent them to customers all over the world. My life has changed quite [...]
It's been a while since I've had the time to make a strap for myself, but this morning I decided I'd earned some "me time" and got to work. A couple of hours later and my new Aqua strap was finished and ready to be [...]
I've posted before about my love of vintage dive watches, and today I thought I'd write a short post about one of my favourites, and possibly one of the most unusual dive watches in my collection. This is my Omega Seamaster 120 f300Hz which dates [...]
