I may have confused Driver8 with Al – can’t find the PM. Here it is after 3 light applications of the “secret ingredient” and drying time. Jeanna offered to darken it but I said – “Nah.” Nice to know something in the pantry can be so effective. I much prefer this darkened version.

# 2 Better or worse?

No doubt in my mind.

I like the darker one also. Strap looks great on that watch Shark. I just got an email from Dangerous 9, my Pam strap is all finished. He sent me a slide show of the process...very cool!!
