Ok does anybody have any experience of strap code bracelets, or specifically their divers ratchet wetsuit extension clasp?
I had to take my sumo off its as bracelet as the clasp got uncomfortable. The rest of the bracelet is pretty good but the clasp is long, partly because the divers extension sticks out the end/is tagged on the end and basically isn’t flexible/articulated like a link, so clasp plus extension is a very long rigid piece and if I was being active it started too stick into my wrist painfully. Other than the clasp the bracelet seems decent so I’ve been searching for a decent clasp to fit to it that is shorter, expecting to put one link back in as I swap the clasp. The strapcode bracelets look very good and the ratchet extension a great piece of work (it’s similar to the omega adjustable clasp, or the Rolex glidelock, and has 5 positions with 1cm total extension). I’d considered a Chinese copy glidelock but can’t find one to fit the sumo bracelet as the male/female or centre/outside bits of the oyster are the other way around for Rolex and Rolex fake glidelock clasps than the sumo and they are I think 16mm wide not 18mm, so the strap code, which connects to the bracelet around the outer parts seems the only decent option. It’s normally not cheap, Amazon have it do so for £65. However assume hunting with Google and I’m sure I’ve found it at Swiss watch company for $35 with free world wide shipping, by chance the version they have seems to be the correct with for my sumo. So I’m about to hit buy, but before I do I thought I’d ask, anybody got experience with strap code stuff? Is it worth the money?
Blimey, that was more long winded than I expected!
