Nice...Don't make the mistake I did. Use masking tape on your lugs so you don't munch the screws / lugholes!

I was so anal, I had my watchmaker buff out the scratches my screwdriver made...

Now I am gun shy to change up my straps!!!

yeah, i know what you are saying, but taking my time and have a finger under the lug guiding the screwdriver will help it from moving around the lug hole

no problems yet (fingers crossed)

Great straps Eric. They both look great with the simplicity of the face on the 000.

They look fantastic Eric, especially the darker brown with the olive stitching


Is that Rich's 'tobacco' or 'papaya' leather?



Cheers

Place masking tape over the lughole and make a hole with the screwdriver?

That's a good way to do it. You could carefully poke two holes to expose the screws.
