Not been happy with Seawolf had it up for trade earlier in the week due to the following problems.
Im my opinion the dial and the colour are beautiful,its the thickness of the watch that always been
a problem both on the bracelet and a breitling leather strap.

THe watch head never seemed to sit well on my wrist and seem to on overpower the bracelet and strap
and i never felt comfortable.
Few days ago a toshi strap came up on for sale on SC.
So i bought to give it a try as i thought the thickness of the strap may complement the bulkiness of the
watch head.
Well heres pictures of them together and i feel i have cracked it,combination of the colours complement
each other.
The thickness of the strap made the watch head feel smaller on the wrist and its very comfortable to wear,
What do you think?

Hi Colin.

That looks great, glad you have found a solution.

I have a few Toshi's myself and am always very impressed with Rich's work.

He lives a few minutes from me, so i always pick mine up in person and have a chat.

He's a top bloke who loves watches.......and making straps for them.

Nick.

Thoss straps look great on the Bs. I am about to order a Toshi myself but have one concern. Are the Toshi straps supple? I found the croc leather Breitling straps a bit too stiff for my liking.

Thx.

Looks really good. Rich does nice work and his prices are pretty decent. I just received a plum with black stitiching for my PAM 312 and its great. He is a great guy to deal with and you can customize almost anything.

They aren't "floppy" but they are a lot more plyable than a fresh Breitling Croco (which is wierd since the Toshi is thicker). If you want really supple and still want Croc, look at TedSu. They are a little thinner and as soft as butter.

Great combination. I think the strap fits the size and It looks good on your wrist. I am happy you were able to find a solution and keep your watch.
Best health, Frank.
