Anyone have any experience with Clockwork Synergy straps? They've got a couple of designs I really like, but their "premium" straps are only $15.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By toxicavenger70: I might be mistaken but both of those are tweed. If they are not tweed then they are some of weakest canvas I have ever owned. It isn't the same canvas style of material like a military duffel bag by any means. That is why it leads me to believe it is tweed.
Barton lists it as a mix of long and short staple fiber.  Attached File Attached File |

Do you guys like leather natos? I love how they look just not sure I would like leather. Curious if the leather ends up sticking to the arm? Any other pros/cons.
Prob going to find and order a cheap one to test out. |

Would getting the leather/kangaroo wet and letting it dry while watch, on the wrist help mold it around the watch and wrist better? Just a thought.
Also do they like to stick. |

That said @toxicavenger70 do you know if Rolex makes theirs in house or uses a Swiss firm to do so? It was next to impossible to find some outside an AD and mine said they would have to order them, so I went with yours. |

Phoenix straps kind of suck compared to today's modern materials/methods, but it didn't seem right to own a CWC without having a Phoenix to put it on.

I foolishly let my last Haveston go with a watch that I sold, so I had to get another for the CWC. I really like the single-pass design with the floating keeper.
