So with the new Seiko original crystal re-fitted to the "Kosuke-Tokei", all that was really missing was something to hold it in place.
And this created a few challenges as the lugs are 19 mm, and apparently nobody in Santa Barbara EVER needs to replace a 19 mm strap - this was scientifically proven by visiting every store in town that sells straps ; )
So as is often the case, when you need real help, you turn to the professionals!
And coming to the rescue was Loren of Hadley Roma! He sent me the images and choices, put up with my decision, change of decision, reversal of change of decision...
And behold - the perfect strap to complete this vintage Seiko. A new strap, mind you, but very much of the era! A super-comfortable yet strong strap of black leather. Simple and elegant, and just the right pairing for the "Kosuke Tokei"!
And there is a very good reason WHY so many watch brands are using Hadley Roma for their straps - a wide selection of high quality straps manufactured with the highest attention to detail!
