| . . . I ordered a Citizen factory leather with signed deployant for my minute repeater MONTHS ago. Watchbands.com e-mailed me that they would have to order it. I figured OK, no panic, when it gets in it gets in. I gave up waiting. THEN . . . PayPal sends me a notice, needing approval for a charge.  . . . Lo and behold, it's the strap!!! . . . the stock bracelet is first rate, but it is one of those too tight or too loose deals. That's why I wanted to try the leather. LOVE IT!!!! . . . great fit, curved ends are dead perfect!!!! . . . on the steel . . .  . . . on the leather . . .     . . . on the wrist . . .  . . . nice to have a choice now . . .   . . . hit me for $65 shipped. Not bad, but great either. Fair. |

| Oh boy Randy, that's REALLY something else !!!  That is such a NICE dial on your Citizen, and the new strap seems to actually make the dial more noticeable. The dark blue or black on the dial jumps out at you in the coolest way imo. It gives the watch an entirely different feel, which is just GREAT. Plus like you said, it's nice to have a choice between these two terrific options !!!  Super watch, strap, and photos ! Congrats sir ! Enjoy !!! ____________________________________  | |

| Very nice Randy  . I saw that model with a deployment one other time and thought it really dressed up the watch. |
