Going to put my Tortuga on a bracelet. Been thinking about a Yobokies BoR or the Helson mesh. Any thoughts? Any other recommendations?
Thanks, Jack

That's a good question. I have mine on their Isofrane Verizon strap and love it. Given it's pretty big watch already, guess I'm inclined to keep 'er on a strap. Either of your suggestions would look great and if I may, perhaps something from left field, like a razor? It would give it just a bit of funk to set it apart from the Doxa's etc.

Never once thought of a razor. Interesting.

Never once thought of a razor. Interesting. Well since I suggested it figured I might give 'er a try. Bear in mind, that my razor was/is fitted to a Seiko SKX series diver so I had to remove the end links because the Tortuga has hooded lugs. Suggest straight end links if you go this route. One other thing, the fat Seiko spring bars did not seem to fit well so I just swapped the bars from the strap. As a result there's plenty of play but in the end, you get the idea and quite frankly, I think it looks pretty good!

That looks SLICK with the rounded link and rounded case....NICE job!
