Another milestone video, showing the optional color combinations for this watch. It is very difficult to add similar colors of a watch on a strap that enhance the watch, instead of clash. You have the talent to achieve this! Outstanding. Also thank you for the history and your upbeat enthusiasm for us aficionados!

Thanks Brother! MK

[@StrapaWatch]

Thanks Pat! MK

Hi Michael, just subscribed and really impressed with your work. I'm also a subscriber of the Timeless Watch Channel and saw the Speedmaster strap you did for him. His referral was enough for me to check you out, but seeing your actual process sold me. Looking forward to ordering from you. Best regards, John

[@StrapaWatch]

Thank you so much John, and welcome to the 'Strap a Watch' family. I truly hope to get to know you better over time. Thanks again! MK

Thanks AI! MK

What a gorgeous strap for that watch, Michael! Interesting story about PanAm, too. :)

[@StrapaWatch]

Thanks Allison! MK

Great show! Got to believe that Pepsi executives have at some time gotten Rolex Pepsi watches. Interesting how collectible some of these watches become.

[@StrapaWatch]

I bet you're right... Thank Jim! MK

[@DESCENDINGDR]

Great video Michael!!!! Lots of research, very generous of you. Once I realized that you cannot send Alligator bands to California I am having to rethink which band I want. I am basically a bracelet guy but want one of your beautiful leather bands soon...

[@StrapaWatch]

Thanks Bob! FYI - The ban on Exotic Skins to California was lifted by a Federal Judge out there about a month ago. MK

[@DESCENDINGDR]

Good! Finally some common sense and one small corner of California. I’ll send you an email next week, thank you Michael

[@CalTheCollector]

Great video again Micheal, keep them coming the UK have just gone back into a national lock down untill December so I need as many videos as you can produce lol, Love that Pepsi, the root beer is beautiful too, the Tiffany OP is going to look incredible with your uniform, my favourite is the orange one personally! Have a great week Micheal take care! Callum

Thanks Brother! MK

[@eazye619]

Just found your channel! Really liked the video and your review so i subscribed!

[@StrapaWatch]

Thanks Easy E! Welcome to the‘Strap a Watch’ family! I’m glad you liked the video and I hope to get to know you better over time. Thanks again, MK

[@ip_freely]

Not all Pan-Am 6542's had the logo on back. The Hodinkee watch you referenced did not also.

[@StrapaWatch]

Thanks… MK

Another super video my brother...question..where did you get the round pricking irons? I'm getting really tired of using my single punch on a pattern with hundreds of stitching holes..thanks again for the weekly videos...always good to see you...later

[@StrapaWatch]

Hi Dan, and thanks for the comment question! I actually use both diamond and french style pricking irons for my stitching holes. If you're referring to the multi punch for my watch strap buckle holes, I'll leave a link below. I purchased all of my newer pricking irons and punch tools from Rocky Mountain Leather, but here's the link for the buckle hole punch: www.rmleathersupply.com/collections/view-all-tools/products/ks-blade-watch-strap-punch

[@406Montana]

@@StrapaWatch Thanks pal, I use RM and I'll check out your link...I'm going down to John Viano's comment and giving him a thumbs up...John's a wise man....lol
