Picked up this Sportura earlier this year. Seller said it kept stopping and pusher not working. Well 5 mins installing new battery and freeing the pusher I have a half decent watch for $60. Now what strap to go with. Original it comes with a leather one , well I always like the look of the Honda F1 strap . So why not ,sourced from the States via Spencer ( helped with the postage). Now the result , $75 well spent on the strap . So now have a cheeky little watch, already had a few postive comments when I have it on the wrist. As bought.  With upgrade.    Cheers Yorkie |

I have always wanted one of these (Horn back Croc) but at $169.00 I dont think that will ever happen! Besides that.......what watch would I ever be able to use it on?  |

Congrats. Back in the day I put $200 rims on my $35 Toyota truck. It's sad how inflation has ruined the good ole days. I wanted the world time Sportura and hunted this one for 6 years but when I finally got it I was a little disappointed by the fit to my wrist  I guess the thrill is really in the hunt since I already had 4 end all watches which met all of my perfect watch requirements but still was not content.  |

cdgod, I also have the world timer, just bought a new strap along with the F1 one. I prefer the strap to the bracelet I also have.
Like the watch size ,but I find it rather difficult to operate. Last time I went overseas I had to take the instructions with me , as I was for every stuffing up the settings. Pain in the rear for sure.
