Nice!

Which buckle did you go with?

I opted for the Metta in 140/90 with Mod Dep buckle & 1886 tan stitching.

Ordered mine last Thursday, followed-up with Micah to request a longer length & was told he would be making/shipping mine this week. Pretty safe bet you'll have yours soon.

Hi Darren, thanks for the order.

I'm really caught up at the moment so I'm actually already working on your strap, it should be in the mail this week.

Thanks!

From Micah as well? I was checking out the Zuegma website earlier......you can get carried away real quick strap shopping with so many great options available.

Kind of torn between these two:

Just got an email saying mine was finished & shipping, here's the preview pic.



"A short history of the Metta Catherina
Paraphrased from a 2002 New York Times article:
In the autumn of 1786 Captain Hans Jensen Twedt anchored the brigantine Die Frau Metta Catherina, loaded with hemp and leather bound for Genoa, in the shelter of Plymouth Sound, England. On December 10th, 1786, The winds unexpectedly shifted, a full-scale gale screamed into Plymouth Sound, and the previously safe anchorage turned deadly... vessel and cargo entirely lost; crew saved. In 1973 the Metta Catherina was discovered in Plymouth sound by a local diving club. As she was excavated it was discovered that the cargo of Russian reindeer leather had been miraculously preserved by a layer of thick silt and was still in excellent condition, as it is today."
