Italian watch and rubber, ordered the isofrane and made it from Austria in three days, not bad for 10 bones in shipping charges!

Thanks Mark, ive got a 24mm isofrane and they are by far the best real rubber strap on the market! No lint or dust, doesnt sweat on the wrist and is just a perfect strap.... Dont fall for the O7 and other look-a-likes because they arent even close to the real italian rubber isofrane strap!

that rubber looks great on your new anonimo trevor, it looks like this one is going to get a lot of wrist time, with all the new straps you have coming. its amazing how much a strap changes the overall look of a watch. steve

It's a shame you don't like that watch more Trevor!

LMAO!

I gotta say, that rubber strap looks GREAT on there!

VERY COOL!

Very tough to change the straps, rubber wasnt bad but the leather is almost impossible to get the screwbars through the strap and in both lug ends
(stock bars have a slotted head on one end and a screw head that threads into the tube on the other end) Leatherstraps really takes up alot of room and you can get the one end in the lug hole and into the strap, the main problem is getting the screwbar into the other lug and then screwing in the screwbar bolt though the lug and tighten into the bar, brain has already warned me there isnt much room from a leather strap to fit with enough room to get the bars into both lugs and it took me a good three hours last ight and i gave up and used a single bar used in drilled through lugs in one side of the watch lugs and when the isofrane should up the screwbar and screwhead worked without much effort, I ordered these from panatime hoping they will work in place of the stock ones so i can use the bjstraps! Here is a quick look and i will know in a couple weeks? Shot from panatime that i think will work and still look like a two or three piece scewbar, tube and screwhead! Sure hope so because i need me some bj love but brian will have to make them real thin where they go against the case!

They have a fake slot in one end so they look like a screwbar and screw. Hope the springbars that look like scewbars will work on the thicker bjstraps???

This is what the stock one looks like and it really hard to seat it in the last lug!

Forgot to tell you how hard it was swapping from my anonimo rubber to my anonimo kodiac. Was fing terrible. Now as much as I wanna go back to rubber once in a while I'm scared I won't be able to get the kodiac back on. Plus you have to have a screwdriver in each hand which is hard as shit for me for some reason. The new anonimos use a hex type head. Way better. Wish I had that.

Looks Good Trevor. Have always liked the look on someone else but not for myself. Just wish they would make one with less holes in it!

That is SOME KIND of strap Trevor !!! Very Happy ..Honestly adds even
more attitude to your new Anonimo ! ..It seems EXTRA sporty,
but also looks like something a professional diver might want to
have on their watch. It's nice how it has all of those different
sized rectangles cut into the rubber. Also like the end of the
strap where it is diagonal also ! Italian Navy would be proud!! 803574 Italian Navy would be proud!! 803574 Seems like this one
really has the quality, and looks to match up just right with
your new watch sir. Congratulations !!! ..I hope you keep
enjoying both this watch, and strap !

P.S. I hope those springbars work out for you when you get
them !

kobold uses a tool about 3" long that screws into the screwbar (same diameter) on one end and is pointed at the other end, you put the pointed end thru the lug and strap and then it fits nicely in the second lug (tough one) pull it until the screwbar is tight unscrew the tool and then screw on the bolt! So simple and would work great on these anonimo's where the leather straps just are too big to fit the lug holes just right! Tried to use mine on the anonimo but kobolds screwbars are a hair bigger so it wouldnt screw into the bar or fit through the lugs! Great idea and i'm suprised someone hasnt built one, plus it keeps the little pieces of loose leather out of the screwbar so the screw will go right in without binding on leather in the threads!!!
