Great overview of these good-looking tropic straps. Are the straps compatible with Seiko's fat spring bars?
They do not, Seiko fatties are 2.5mm and these take 2mm, I use these on eBay for a perfect fit to include correct tip size for a secure fit... www.ebay.com/itm/384021732054?var=652304917897
@@AverageBros Thanks. I bought a few for myself.
The seiko fatties do fit just slide some soap on them and they slide right in!
@@adamryder4559 what about taking them back out tho?
@@Mexicanfood182very difficult. i just have dedicated bars for each strap. you can push it with a spring bar tool but say bye to the bars.
Thanks for video, I just love seeing this watch. I will get my slim turtle soon 🐢
each time look your video i find it realy intresting and right points and great taste love seiko i have spb149 and now will look spb317 thank you
Great review. Thanks. I need to go through my divers and see if there are some I want to change the strap or bracelet. I haven't used a Tropic strap.
The size I really would like of course is what they don't offer. I have a Seiko SLA that is 19mm. I have bought sail cloth, canvas, leather sport, and a leather strap I distressed. Keep putting it back on the blue Seiko strap. Just looks correct to me. I think Seiko could have made them softer. Have a brown strap on a sto turtle. Like butter soft. The search continues!
My favorite straps. I’ve always preferred rubber and actually started off with Isofrane which are awesome but very bulky. Since i love the Vanilla scent i found out about Tropic and ever since getting my first one i have never looked back. They are about 10x as comfortable as Isofrane and much more supple. I love how versatile they are too. They can be worn casually or formally depending on the color of the strap. I still keep the isofrane on my Seiko Samurai as a rugged tool watch but i have Tropics on about 4 of my other watches that i wear a lot.
Oooh. Cool. I’ll watch tonight at Starbucks. Looking forward to it.
I have to try one of these tropic straps. I've been using Barton's Tropic straps recently.. the slightly softer V2 version. It helps as the first were a tad too stiff. What I like about Barton are
1) they give u both shorter and longer lengths for the strap.
2) the keeper at the end holds the loose ends down great as it fits into and slots into the end with the slot cutout
3) the strap immediately has a bend near the lug ends for easier wrap around wrist right off the watch head
4) quick release spring bars
5) quite affordable.. well under $40.. $30?
They may not be as pliable as these tropic straps seem to be. That's not so bad. I'd say the one drawback is that the rubber used is rather grippy. Thus, securing the watch on taking off running the strap through keepers is not as quick as it should be.
Anyways, should pick up one of these genuine/original tropic straps for a try to compare for myself.
I didn’t like the Tropic brand one at all. Too long, too floppy. I like the Uncle Seiko much better.
For some reason when I put the Tropic, which I love, on this particular watch (SPB317), which I also love, it didn’t wear well. Kept rolling on my wrist. I put a Barton silicon strap on it and it stayed put. Not knocking the Tropic though because it’s great on my other watches.
I own a tropic , amongst many other brands and must admit the tropic is by far the most comfortable.
Thats great that they are now using rounded edges on the 20mm. But on my 6.5" wrist the tail is too long. A great alternative is the Joseph Bonnie / Wolbrook version which is 75mm / 120mm in length and a premium product.
Joseph Bonnie truly makes an amazing tropic strap. Only problem is they only make it in 20mm :(
Turtle on a tropic strap is the best combination. I keep my SRPC91 on black tropic or waffle strap all the time.
I got a few of these and I love them. I have the nato green on my seiko sje093 which came with cut off ends which matches the case and green indices.
Just put an anthracite TROPIC on my Seiko SNE569P1 with faded grey bezel. Great pairing!
yep they are long, but extremely comfy
That orange one would look nice on an SSK005.
Did you ever take a look to the Italian brand Seacult? I have several of them and also the original Tropic, and Borealis and I believe they are up there. Quite a good fabric. Regards
Just received my borealis tropic strap unbelievable for the price 🔥👌
Does Long Island watch shop sell the ones with rolled edges as well?
Great video - I have been looking for a Seiko for a couple of years - the SPB333 is THE one. Is there a website for Tropic strap - I am not sure I have found the right one. Great work on the videos!
Link in the video description, thanks
I'm trying to make a decision.
Dasarri Tropic Strap for $34 or TROPIC?
I wish someone would make a quality / comfortable strap for the Seiko Coutura and add some color
and maybe stripes.
I have 3 Coutura and if you touch those pins in their metal bands they will forever fall apart from then on.
There have been many Coutura sold but a lot of them are not being worn because the bands turn to junk
after being sized and . . . Seiko knows this.
Mate, Is the watch on your wrist SPB333? This one looks to have a bluish dial and also a dark blue bezel. I like this colour but the SPB333 as I have found has a silver dial and a grey bezel. ??
It's an SPB333 with pale silver dial and anthracite grey bezel insert
LUM?
What is your recommendation for changing straps without scratching your lugs ?
These have drilled lugs, so just use a punch tool to remove and a normal spring bar tool to install. If you feel shaky, then you can always put tape on the lugs for extra protection
How do these compare to your Joseph Bonnie tropic straps?
I much prefer Tropic but the JB are a great alternative
Need short with quick-release - ideas?
I love these straps, but as a guy with a 6.5” wrist who never wears a wetsuit, I can’t stand that extra tail poking out. I wish Tropic made a smaller 115/80mm size.
The shorter alternative is to get Joseph Bonnie or Wolbrook tropics, which are the same strap with different buckles. Very flexible, and well-made, and cheaper than the original tropics.
The long length was my first thought, I’ll have check out those alternatives. Thanks!
@@phorty89Honestly, the quality is really good. Wolbrook and Joseph Bonnie seem to get their straps from the same company. The straps have fewer molding seams than others and the tropic pattern wraps around the top of the strap where it meets the lugs. Great for smaller wrists!
I did a JB review and I can assure you that they are not the same. They are quite different, not bad at all, quite premium but not quite as soft and supple. I do like them though, just a touch too short for me, I like to have a bit of tail end for a sportier strap.
@@AverageBrosTo be clear, I wasn’t claiming JB/WB were the same as Tropic. Wolbrook and JB are the same strap as each other.
@@AverageBros my issue with the JB strap is the keepers, for some reason they have decided to keep the serrated edge on the underside part of the keeper. This means that it digs into your skin when the strap is worn tight against the skin. I may have to sand them to make it comfortable.
Great straps, but they are too long and the holes are too far apart to get a good fit unless your watch head and wrist size fall in the Tropic Strap Goldilocks zone.
They're meant to fit over a wetsuit. If you're not not actually using it for its intended purpose (diving) just buy one of the many, many copies that other companies manufacture. I'll never understand why someone chooses to complain about a tool that does its job perfectly. "This is a great hammer, but it sucks when I use it as a screwdriver."
Well, that’s not how Tropics are marketed. They’re marketed as being a watch strap that may fit over wetsuits. NOWHERE, have I seen them stated as a strap designed to fit over wetsuits that may fit over naked wrists for street wear. Since I don’t dive, and wear my diver on the street only, I find it EXTREMELY helpful that they can having fitting issues for naked wrists. The Hammer and screwdriver analogy is rather poor…!@@RockandrollNegro
Discount code on straps 😉
I really want to like Tropic straps, but the holes are too far apart for me to get a good adjustment most of the time. So I stick with Barton Elite for now.
Am I the only one who thinks they missed a huge opportunity by going with slim turtle over Ninja Turtle? I mean c'mon.
If they do an all back DLC coating, then Ninja Turtle will absolutely be the go to nickname 🤣
There is already a Seiko with the Ninja Turtle nickname, the black and orange LE from 3 or so years ago.
Tropic straps only look good in pictures.
You feature the Tropic strap on Seiko divers, but do not mention if they fit Seiko’s fat spring bars…? There’s lots of talk about colors and edges, but nothing about how they fit on Seiko’s (and you feature them on Seiko’s!)
Check out the pinned comment 😉
i got 4 straps for 15 dollars at aliexpress, they look and feel just like an 80 dollar tropic strap would feel like, 80 dollars wtf???????????
Nice looking straps, but they’re too narrow. They look like a strap for a woman.

Since i love the Vanilla scent i found out about Tropic and ever since getting my first one i have never looked back. They are about 10x as comfortable as Isofrane and much more supple.
