  • Not really... all the ones I tried were pretty stiff.

    I fancy the Longines Spirit black dial, the 40mm. Anyone tried it?
    Well, I really fancy an IWC mark XII-XVIII or Spitfire but don't fancy the price, so as I'm a Longines fan, I'm thinking that will do nicely.

    That’s what I was wondering. Anyone tried the Barton one?

    The lugs look rather long on that Longines but that might not be an issue for you.

  • Slightly shorter than the Hamilton Khaki Field Mechanical I think, doesn't bother me at all, and actually looks nicer when worn on a NATO.

  • I had a Barton sailcloth strap for a short time. It became frayed around the holes and keepers within days. Comfy, but no good long term

  • The Barton one is also quite stiff. I’ve got a very lightly used one (maybe four wears) if you want to try it, 24mm in blue. I posted a picture a few months ago of it on a Magrette- wasn’t a lairy enough blue for me.
