Here's a quick and dirty prototype of the elastic strap i made for my Lindes. Tried it both on the carbon and steel one to see if the band (in this case i used 2 bands to go better with the black green colors of carbon one)
I was sceptical about the elastic band being able to hold the watch well on the wrist and boy i was wrong. It holds well and the feeling of the watch on the wrist pleasantly snug, very comfy and super secure. I have been wearing that for the last 24 hours and also kept it on the wrist while sleeping, all great till now.
Don't pay much attention to the unfinished deconstructed look, i did not want to spend much time on the aesthetics as i said i was pretty skeptical about the functionality for a heavier watch.
So now i have to work on a better look elastic strap for LW too and most probably for some other watches.

By the way guys, i have removed that stuck screw. Had to remove the bezel for that. The crystal is actually sandwiched between midcase and bezel. Will post some pictures tomorrow.

I have ordered 5 screw drivers for the strap change, they are thicker but can be sanded down bit. Will be modding them to work on our watches and will be offering them at around $25 for the customers who order RM straps.

Ouch mate!!! You are not good for my wallet haha. I'm starting with the grey one, but will be back for more colours if i like it
I only want one RM in my collection, but some options for strap colours.Great red by the way! Some red colours can be "a bit off", but this one looks perfect!
