    Im actually not a fan of quick-release. aside from lug width, different watches are better with specific spring bars versus others. Quick-release styles deprive you of that flexibility. It’s more of gimmicky thing that became more common with Apple watch owners.

    • @timelesssneakersandwatches
      @timelesssneakersandwatches  Рік тому +1

      I agree, certain watches do work better with specific spring bars. But personally I do like the convenience of quick release without destroying lugs lol.

    Thanks for this review and thorough break down of the various options. I own the original tropic and some OEM ones. In the search for a better value option, the eBay straps were recommended, so I just I ordered half a dozen in various colours yesterday. When I saw ‘eBay’ in the thumbnail to this video, I was curious to know what you’d say, but it appears they’re not at all bad and perhaps it’s hard to justify the premium on the more expensive options. This way I can buy multiples of the same strap for different watches and I can try out different colours without incurring too much expense. If I have a favourite pairing on a particular watch, I can always buy the equivalent coloured original tropic further up the road. Keep up the good work! C 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

      What's up Craig 👊😊. Bro, I truly appreciate you watching. I hope you enjoy the straps. Come back and let me know what you think once you get them. I'd love to hear your input. Honestly, in my opinion the premium price gets you the smaller things that to some matter... Like a bit more tapper on the strap, or the nice smell you get with the tropics, etc... Other than that these eBay ones do the trick and feel great😉🍻. Thanks again for watching means a lot!

    Thanks for the reviews. I just received my Borealis isofrane style strap and it took almost 4 weeks to arrive. It was only $42 and is a good strap for the price, but Isofrane/Tropic (same company) is much more supple and has a better feel on the wrist. Though pricey, they are worth it. Take care.

    Very nice video, man! 💯 Couple of quick questions, what sort of spring bars are you using for the Tropic Strap on your King Samurai? Do the OEM Seiko “Fat Boy” spring bars fit inside the Tropic straps? Thanks and cheers! ⌚️🥃😎

    • @timelesssneakersandwatches
      @timelesssneakersandwatches  2 роки тому +1

      Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the video. The fat boy spring bars are too thick and even tho you can squeeze them in there, they're a pain to take off the strap. I would use a 2mm spring bar with tips that are 1.1mm diameter to fit the Seiko case like the OEM spring bars.

    If you had to choose between the Tropic and the Oris, which would you go for?

    • @timelesssneakersandwatches
      @timelesssneakersandwatches  3 роки тому

      Honestly, I'd have to go with Tropic. Quality is about the same so you won't be missing out with one or the other. But I love the color options, the size options and the smell of the tropic straps is amazing as crazy as that sounds lol the only thing I wish tropic would change or "upgrade" is quick release spring bars. That would make the straps perfect.

      @Eric Estrada from the photos they certainly seem to be the same. Same dimensions, same design, same markings on the inside, same price.
      Some people also claim Wolbrook to sell the same strap, just with a different buckle.
      I have no idea if they are the same or not, so I can't confirm nor deny.

    THE LEGEND OF THE TROPIC
    There are hundreds of rubber strap models and styles, but through the years, there’s only been one strap that is known by its brand name, the TROPIC® strap. Once standard issue for the world’s most iconic dive watches throughout the sixties and seventies, the TROPIC® name is back to dive again, using a new and proprietary vulcanized rubber formula optimized to deliver unmatched wearer comfort and quality. Like the original, the new Genuine TROPIC® strap shares the same design elements, adhering to the textured ‘tapestry’ surface that made the original a beloved, multi-generational icon. Its deeply embossed back, and tapered shape are designed to increase wearer comfort, while the strap’s ends are uniquely shaped to create a seamless transition between case, lugs and strap.
    Cool review ✌🏻
