Got lots of fun watch related toys for my birthday.<\/p>\n

First off is a Modena<\/a> brand silicone band for my Orange Bullet:<\/p>\n

\"orange_orange_1\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"orange_orange_2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The bold orange really compliments the orange face of the watch, it is a pretty close match. \u00a0It is very comfortable to wear and is very soft silicone rubber. \u00a0It also has a deployant clasp, which makes it very easy to get on and off. \u00a0This is my second Modena rubber watch band, and they are very nice for the money. \u00a0Italian made and I have not had any trouble with them so far.<\/p>\n

Secondly, we have another Modena item, a butterfly deployant clasp adaptor:<\/p>\n

\"deployant\"<\/a><\/p>\n

What is it? It is a device which replaces the traditional buckle on a watch. You will often see it on expensive ‘timepieces’ It allows for easier removals and reduces the wear that comes from stretching and bending the leather when putting watch on and taking it off. Pretty cool, now that I am getting used to it’s operation.<\/p>\n

Finally, we have this piece of leather:<\/p>\n

\"compass_on_leather\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It’s a really nice real leather band, rally type with large breathing holes. \u00a0It is very thick, but surprisingly flexible. \u00a0The white stitching matches the watch face well and really compliments the watch. \u00a0The buckle, interestingly, matches the look of the watch like it was made for it:<\/p>\n

\nThe angles reflect the same design as the watch lugs. I am very happy with this band.
\nI have to thank my family for accepting my watch collecting and giving me these things, even if they don’t understand what half of them do. It is a really fun hobby so far and I love watch bands. They change the whole look of a watch without breaking the bank.<\/p>\n\"Facebook\"<\/a>\"twitter\"<\/a>\"mail\"<\/a>by <\/span>\"feather\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
