Thanks guy, it will def to go the the aformetinoed for lume and cannon pin soon. Strap was not to expensive as I got it used for watchlover as he said. It is one of my favorites so far. As fas as the bulcked goes I am planning on swapping out to the Ti buccke but need to find a good way to do it since the Toscana is a Sewn in and the Ti bulcke that came with the watch is a swen in as wel.
That's going to be a problem Yllwtrb. There are only two ways of getting a sewn in buckle out in one piece. First you can unstitch the leather strap and then stitch back again. Or you will have to cut the strap and take the buckle out. You could cut the buckle, but then your buckle would be messed up and thus useless for it's purpose.
The first method is the only reasonable one to me and even then it would destroy the strap as parts of it are glued together so it would have to be cut along the join. I would personally just keep them like they are and buy another strap with a Ti buckle. I love sewn in buckles as they are by far the strongest option and the only true way to have a vintage strap. But if you are into buckle swapping then you will have a problem.
