Re: strap durability
In Response To: strap durability ()

hi EFOX. I wanted to give my 2 cents worth regarding the summer strap. I have the full size SMP. I live
in an area that is 112 degrees in the shade in AZ. However, I feel that a summer strap is unneccessary. The bracelet is the only choice for me. It is perfect. In terms of straps, get one that is lizard, or crocodile. They are better quality than the regular leather, enen though they are more expensive. Good luck with your choices.

: the bracelet. Is there any comparison in
: durability between the flat, ridged, domed
: straps? What about the clasps? Thanks much.
