Going to watch this one again too Mike and I wouldn't think about going to the end...! Love the fact that you film your work and then you describe the action later as you do.... That is what I really enjoy, your narration as to what is taking place on your bench....! Love it.... Greg in IN
13:15 Sometimes, when I think about watch straps, I think about the word “Shinki Hikaku” said in your John Wayne voice. Always makes me chuckle because I never heard of that fun word before you and you have such a cool voice and delivery. Perfect combination. Michael, I always enjoy your videos and was glad to see a new one! You’re someone who deserves all the followers out there, but I know from watching others, there’s always prices to pay (stress, hassles, etc.) the more followers you have. So, I get your laid back approach to your channel. Thank you for sharing more about yourself and personal faith. I could tell you had good perspectives on things and it’s why I was already a subscriber. Plus, your videos are relaxing to watch and always relate nicely to the overall world of great timepieces! By the way, I wish that professor would had given you that “A”. 😁👍🏻 Shinki Hikaku!
Hello Michael. Your videos and narrations are always such a treat, I always look forward to your next video. You make beautiful watch straps and I mean to place an order soon. Have a great week!
Nice Michael, hope to do business with you one day. When I first saw these specific straps on you tube I thought that looks a lot like something from Strap a Watch; duh. Great craftsmanship for sure.
The Alligator strap is superior quality, it actually feels on par with my original strap from Patek (a little bit thinner and more pliable). The craftsmanship is flawless. Elegant dressed-up appearance. Great to see how it was all put together. Thank you. The shell cordovan strap looks to be extremely durable and should break in well over time. The particular shade is brown is beautiful and more versatile than I expected. I just switched it to my GMT Master II 16710 BLRO on my lasted video. th-cam.com/video/vrP7d8JzI2s/w-d-xo.html
Michael, it is not horse hide. Cordovan is considered a membrane that is under the exterior back portion of the hide, which gives the horse the ability to twitch and shew off the bees/flies that are bothering him in the butt area. I don’t want to be a jerk, but just wanted to explain the exact purpose of the material/membrane.
It's good to see you again my friend...
Thanks Brother! It’s great to hear from you!!! MK

Oh wow… Thanks for sharing that with me. I really didn’t know about it being considered a membrane. MK
Excellent job- how thick was the Patek? How thick was the bolster?
I honestly don’t remember… Merry Christmas! MK
