DSN 111H and a new strap.....

[salmonia]

Got my DSN 111H a couple of weeks ago, and must say I am very pleased with the overall looks.
Some "minor" things could be better IMO..the sandwichdial is not what I call a sandwich dial.
The two dials has no space between eachother ane the crown could be a little fatter/thicker and closer to the case.
Anyway...I went to my shorepair/saddlemaker shop and asked if he could make me a strap?
Ha had never done any before, but after some meshurement, drawings etc. he said yes to make one.
The outcome wasn´t "perfect", but ok, ok...some adjustments will be made before the next order.
The stich must be thicker and bigger holes for the buckle...
I have also put some grease on the stiching for a more brown and dirty look (not seen in the pics)

Here are some pics....

Thanks for looking and have a nice weekend!

Your strap looks fantastics. Yes, there could be a number of flaw which we would like DSN to correct. Be patience, I think he will make it somedays....

That strap is BEEFY! Looks great on the watch and overall the Davidsen 111 looks really good I'm hoping to get a 177-h from him soon.

The strap looks great, and it looks very thick. Never thought i would say it, but i like it.

That's amazing for a first go. Very impressed. What did he charge?

BTW, where did you get that kick-a$$ buckle?
