The Invasion strap with blasted fittings will look good on your Damasko.

I agree - although right now they don't have the 20mm/blasted combo in stock. :o

That is a really nice and interesting watch. Is it a Sturmanskie? If so can you tell me what model it is.

Thanks

Pete

Thanks all. And yes the Haveston strap is apparently sold out with blasted hardware (I would like to get one too).

Interesting Seamaster, what model is that (size, year) out of interest?
36mm, model number is something like 2501.21. Made in the late 1990s. Great watches. :thumbup:

That's baddass IAJ. Crying out for a nato. Quite rightly reminds me of the old Fortis Cosmo's

He he. The timekeeping is terrible, the chrono stutters like a deranged pigeon and the bracelet is an awful fit at the lugs so rather than the last link 'hanging' as it would do on a normal watch, it's either 'clicked' up, or 'clicked' down as the end link and the bracelet link stick together.

I've got a new Poljot bracelet on order to see if solves the problem but I'm not hopeful and expect it's typical Russian bodge and build quality.

Looks OK though 8)

Shame. My cosmo strella is pretty good in all those regards. Loudest hairspring on this planet though

Going with this for the morning. Might have another watch change later in the day before having to stick with one watch for a month.

Put my Bremont Solo on a canvas Crown & Buckle strap - really like how it has relaxed the look vs the leather strap.
