Dan, have you checked out the Borealis straps? They are roughly the same price but not as long and have more adjustment slots. The quality is a bit better as well imho. I have not but will give it a try, thanks. BTW I sold my in a flash it was just too long This is certainly good to know, as I've been quite tempted by these. To me, they look much nicer than the borealis in pics I've seen. I hope they do end up releasing a smaller version.

The Borealis straps are a little stiffer, but all in all I prefer them. Both are better than the TimeFactors straps which are a very soft silicone and also are the same dimensions as the OMs.

Would be nice if they had 19mm. I would like to use a blue one on a 6139-6005 with blue dial.

As they are made from rubber, it should not be too difficult to fit the 20mm to a 19mm lug width. if everything else fails, remove 1/2 of a mm on each side.

i've always wanted to try out a isofrane but the price tag always stopped me. So I ordered a 20mm black obris strap and for me it is a little on the thick side. But the one thing that put me off this style of strap all together was my arm hair creeping out of all the windows in the strap! So glad I didn't buy an isofrane now what what.

Have you considered strategically shaving your wrist?

Have you considered strategically shaving your wrist? I've done that in the past and got a bollocking off the missus.
